The lead in to Good Riddance by Green Day is messing up the opening twice in a row. He even swears after the second fuck up.

Just a tad before 3 minutes into ‘Hey Jude’, you can hear someone deep in the mix say, “Oh, bloody hell”.

It isn’t really special, but there’s the bit in Bohemian Rhapsody where Roger Taylor’s high backing vocal is a bit longer than everyone else’s. I’m pretty sure that was a mistake that was left in, possibly because they couldn’t take it out with the tech they had back then.

In the beginning of Roxanne from the Police, Sting accidentally sat on a piano, and you hear the butt chord and laughter.

I love the mis-fretted note in Stairway to Heaven at 3:30. Can’t unhear it and love that it’s never been dubbed out in all the various remasters etc.

Mines a funny one because it probably doesn’t exist.

When young I was in a band that did a cover of Fire by Hendrix. And while practicing it along with the recording I would sware that there were moments where Mitch Mitchell went out of time for a beat or so. I never nailed down where it would happen because I was just trying to learn the song, but it felt pretty real though transient. It was probably me, but it would make total sense given the time and the nature of the song. Tempo changes are pretty common for instance for that time.

On ‘Cotton Crown’ by Sonic Youth, Thurston Moore and Kim Gordon sing ‘You got your cotton crown’ multiple times at the end. Gordon accidentally sings it one too many times and trails off, like, ‘You got your cott — uh’.

In ‘Maxwell’s Silver Hammer’, on the second verse Paul McCartney laughs while singing the word ‘writing’, reportedly because John Lennon mooned him from the control booth. Another Beatles one is on ‘What Goes On’ when Ringo Starr sings ‘Tell me why’ and you can hear Lennon shout ‘We already told you why!’, presumably in reference to their earlier song ‘Tell Me Why’, which Starr also sang.

There’s a really famous one on Nirvana’s cover of ‘The Man Who Sold the World’. At the beginning of the guitar solo, Kurt Cobain misses the note then overcorrects and misses it again, but it’s a surprisingly musical-sounding error. I doubt he’d have dubbed it regardless!

In radiohead’s Creep when the first verse shifts to the first chorus, the guitar is supposed to start playing during the chorus. But the guitarist apparently didn’t like how quiet the first verse was so he played the first 3 notes a little bit early to surprise everybody. Some also say he was probably just checking the volume on the amp. It’s not completely clear what his intentions were. But they left it in the final recording and even played it like that live.

On Dream on (Aerosmith), I’ve always wondered if the couple “missing” notes from the arpeggio in 2:33 are intentional or a mistake.

At the end of Streetlight Manifesto’s “Keasbey nights” when one of them says “it fucking stinks in here!”
