GHWT uses a live version of "Purple Haze". In this recording, Jimi says "'Scuse me while I kiss that guy" (which he apparently had intentionally done in some of his live performances). Originally Posted by mazeltomtom19

Fourth try...
Don't hijack the thread with Hendrix nonsense.
Don't trust some lame lyrics website.
Trust your ears.
And the sheet music...

I learned something I didn't know tonight.
I stand by my assertion that the lyrics are wrong in Rockband on A Hard Day's Night.
In the second verse the game says "So why on earth should I moan" and it should be "So why I love to come home"
However, when this verse is repeated near the end of the song the correct words are "So why on earth should I moan". I never noticed this line in the song.
The sheet music does not have the "So why on earth should I moan" because it always basically is a repeat of the first time it is said.
Don't take my word for it, listen to the song.
But when you do and find that I am right, give me props.

Arlen, you're wrong, not the game.
It's "So why on earth should I moan" each and every time. It's a common lyrical mistake that people make about this song.
Besides, "so why I love to come home" doesn't make sense in the context of the song lyrics anyway if you'd stop to think about it. John's complaining about a long hard day('s night), being tired and working like a dog. But then he says, "so why on earth should I moan, 'cause when I get you alone I feel allright." Saying that ..."I shouldn't complain about all this nonsense, because my girl's gonna make me feel allright once I get her alone."
"So why I love to come home" doesn't make grammatical sense.
And don't trust Hal Leonard either, I'll bet he got the chords wrong too.

I would place your trust in Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, and Dhani Harrison, as well as Giles Martin, over a third party book publisher. The lyrics are correct as shown in the game. You are welcome to your own interpretation but the game is factually correct.
