Band Name Origins:

  • "Squeeze" was the name of the Velvet Underground's final album, made after all four original members (Reed, Cale, Tucker, Morrison) had left and Doug Yule was the leader. VU has disowned the album (I mean, come on, NO original members? That is *not* the VU). Apparently, a band in the U.S. had the name Squeeze, and their first album (the one with "Take Me I'm Yours") was titled "U.K. Squeeze." Submitted by: plasket

Story about this misheard lyric by: Lauren Tyler

For many years I wondered what they were actually saying. Why would they be buying birdseed? I eventually looked it up and it all made sense. It's funny how people hear things differently.
