Or how about the review of Patty Smith's album in Playboy years ago where
the idiotic reviewer somehow got the track title sequence one notch off and
proceeded to write a pompous review wherein all the songs mentioned where
wrongly titled!  Doubly funny because he was struggling to make the 
inappropriate titles somehow fit.

Sorry, I just can't swallow this one.  There is too much historical precedence
for errors in transcription.   How many of us could survive without a lyric
sheet for her songs?  This last comment may be slightly irrelevant since I
have not heard her *speaking* voice.
