I'll bet you think you can hear a song and get the words by decoding the sounds, right?
Visit Skepchick and play the video, then come back. I'll wait.
OK, for any literate person reading this: was it possible to hear the real words of the song while reading the captions? I've known those words for literally 30 years and I heard what the captions said. It's amazing.

I hear what's written also.
Amusingly, I first same this technique used on Bollywood music videos, where the text purports to be the lyrics as in the singing was in English and not Hindi or whatever. It's much funnier when the singing is actually in English - or, at least, whatever it is that Joe Cocker called English.
Whatever other significance this might have, it's hysterically funny.
And of course it works because it's Joe Cocker - the man does not exactly enunciate.
