The published lyrics to CLT are 'I kinda like it' and that is what I have always heard them as but listening to the isolated vocals he actually sings 'You gotta like it'. I might be wrong but I rarely am.

Seaside Rendezvous swaps verses around.
A bugbear of mine is every published lyric to Brighton Rock says 'A little people magic..' This doesn't make sense. It was obviously 'A little peephole magic...'

@Dysan, for BR, it took me a while to understand that one as a young lad but I think that "people magic" is correct. Jimmy is hoping for a little "people magic" to develop between them (with the assistance of a romantic moon) so that he can get his wicked way with Jenny. Just my take on it.....

dysan, re:
>It was obviously 'A little peephole magic...'
......and re-tells the story of how Brian came to contract hepatitis from a money shot to the eye by a big black dude called "Jenny" who was on the other side of the wall.

@zephead do you know what a peephole is and why it might be mentioned in a saucy victorian romp around Brighton?
zephead2112 · Member since
@dysan...yes of course, I'm English and I was born in the 60's and I have lived and worked in Brighton. I was merely presenting my own viewpoint in respect of the published lyrics (and those I have been listening to since 1974), not attempting to discount your own theory.

I can't believe someone thinks 'people magic' makes no sense but 'peephole magic' does?!

I remember Bowie's old sound man in the glam days being given the Ziggy album lyrics to proof read. He said he corrected a few here and there to what HE was hearing. I can imagine the same happens all over the rock world.

"Little people" are fairies and their like. "Little people magic" makes plenty of sense, given that.

Maybe striking an early point for the PC brigade's view of midgets and dwarfs.

Funny I had the same feeling with Save Me.. the first two save me’s sound like.. “Save you, save you, save me I can't face this life alone“

I remember a guy at college said 'oh I love Queen! I love the song FBG...'I got stiffness in my balls!' genius!!!'
It undermined my understanding of the song... which was a sophisticated look at sex and putting on a farm.
