What's a song you can't listen to the same way after knowing what it's really about?
I've been thinking about this after a wedding gig where the couple chose a song everyone slow-dances to, but the lyrics are actually about a relationship falling apart. I had to stand there and keep the beat knowing half the room didn't notice. It got me curious — what song got permanently changed for you once you actually caught the meaning?

Once you've caught the real lyric, the innocent version stops existing. Same words, different text — like re-reading an old email after the breakup and suddenly it's a confession. I'd have spent the whole gig watching the couple's faces.
