Jong-jong Jing-jing (Huh?)

* * * * * * * * * *
I am a big fan of the Morning Rush show at RX 93.1 with Chico and Delamar. I find the show funny and at the same time mentally stimulating. But most of the time.. just funny. When Chico starts singing, I almost hear my ears echo from too much laughing.

Last Wednesday I was listening to the show when I heard them discuss about people singing the wrong lyrics to popular songs. Example:

Chico (singing) : My Penelope , my ... my ... my... (correct : High fidelity, high, high, high...)
Delamar (singing) : I'm dying along with my head on the phone (correct : I'm lying alone...)

Over the years, I've heard a lot people sing the wrong and the strangest lyrics! Remember Alyssa Alano's Keys Me? The song is devoid of sense already!

One of my favorite (courtesy of my Cebuano officemate, Alan):

Host to Contestant: Anong pong kakantahin nila?
Contestant : Jong-jong , Jing- jing po...
Host : Wow! Bago yata yan.... Maestro.....musika!
Contestant (starts singing) : Jong-jong.. Jing-jing... to try and plis mi (correct lyrics : Don't go changing....)

And the rest....
