My new favorite commercial is the one for Volkswagen featuring clips of people butchering a line in the Elton John song "Rocket Man." The actual line is and I had to look it up is... There are several people who mishear the lyrics as: But then the couple in the VW Passat gets it right. "Rocket man.
Burning out his fuse up here alone." "Crystal clear Fender Premium Audio. One of many Premium features on the all new Volkswagen Passat." Of all of the songs chosen for this list, Elton Johns Rocket Man has the most opportunities for misheard lyrics.
This one may not be the most frequently misheard, but it makes the least sense, so were allowing it free admission. Who knew that a line in Elton Johns song Rocket Man (I Think Its Going to Be a Long Long Time) was burning out his fuse up here alone? Volkswagen has some fun in this 2012 Passat commercial below by using the mysterious and somewhat awkward lyric written by Bernie Taupin: Funny. Various scenes are presented with people singing along with "Rocket Man"'s chorus of, "Rocket man, burning out his fuse up here alone" in various, hilarious, misheard ways: "cheap cologne," "my hair is gone," "this useless telephone," etc.
You know that commercial or product placement that's twice as loud as all the others and is blindingly bright or otherwise just obnoxious? Well here's the place to air your grievances!
