When I was little, around 2 or 3, Nirvana's "Come As You Are" was pretty popular. For parts of the song, he sings "Memory-a". Well, my dad, being the clever guy he is, told me he was actually saying "Amberina" My name is Amber, and I always thought he was singing about me. It wasn't until I was about 12 or 13 when I looked up the lyrics and learned the truth.
I like my version better
