"Any Way You Want It" by Rise Against

 

I misunderstood the lyrics when hardcore Chicago, Illinois band Rise Against covered "Any Way You Want It," the 1980 single from San Francisco, California arena rockers Journey.

She loves to move/she loves to groove/she loves the loving things were the original words penned by Steve Perry.

I heard "she loves eleven things," which I thought was oddly specific.

Either that, or she loves Eleven things, which is another way of saying that she's particularly fond of Eggo waffles.

For another Journey cover, Petra Haden's version of "Don't Stop Believin'" can be found here.

"Don't Stop Believin'" by Petra Haden

 

I love everything about Petra Haden's cover of Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'."

The greatest use of autotuned vocals.  Ever.

The injection of humor that runs from cutely charming to over-the-top ridiculous.

The use of a cheesy drum machine.

The subtle nod to Wilson Phillips.

And, most impressive.... that's not a guitar.
