Em's pronunciation of 'asphyxiated'

Postby Amaranthine » Aug 10th, '12, 07:50

In Music Box and No Apologies, he doesn't pronounce the 's'...why? It's been driving me crazy.

Does he say it in another song correctly?

I think he did, because that's what got me thinking about it, but I can't remember where else he uses it.

Ooh, brownie points for Geno. :y:

So yeah, if he knows the right way to pronounce it, why leave out the 's' in two other songs? It's weird.

He adds a fucking 's' to Christopher Reeve every god damn time :coffee:

And another thing, on WTP he pronounces 'ask' both correctly and incorrectly! It drives me crazy!

Oh and in Above The Law it starts with "The poor stays poor the rich get richer" then it changes to "The poor stay poor the rich get richer"

Propper English is overrated. :smoking:

I just realized after slik post that it's Reeve and not Reeves. I also thought Reeves was correct. I had to google search him now...

I think he is exercising poetic licence. Except he's doing it beyond grammatically.

He may just not like the sound of it when he says it over a beat. "Asphyxiation" isn't an easy word to say when you pronounce the "S."

With the Music Box one, it just songs like he's making it rhyme smoother.
