  I am a tough tough personality

  I already told you all about one of my biggest misheard lyrics from my youth, but Matt hasn’t shared his yet, so I thought I’d go ahead and do it for him.

  

  These guys don't look so tough.

  It comes from Living Colour and their big hit Cult of Personality. I still hear it on the radio all the time, and I remember Matt telling me that when he was younger, he thought Corey Glover was singing “tough tough personality” instead of “cult of personality”. I guess I can see how that would make sense, except at the end when he would be shouting, “I am a tough tough! I am a tough tough!”

  Does it really sound like that? Watch the video and judge for yourself…
