On Joe Rogan’s podcast last week, Steven Tyler let it slip that the original lyrics to the song, “I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing,” may have had been profoundly different than the song we have come to know. After some deep web research and a few house calls in Maui, this blog was granted exclusive access to a portion of the unreleased song. Below is the leak from Joe Rogan’s podcast, followed by the clip of the unreleased song. It appears that the original version of the song was actually about Steven Tyler’s refusal to kiss “your thing,” which by the described “stink,” must surely refer to a gentle-lady’s private parts. Following the revelation of the unreleased track, DJ Khaled commented that he, too, “does not kiss it.”
After reviewing the song, we interviewed Steven Tyler, mainly to ask about the quality of his voice in the unreleased song. “I must have had a cold that day,” Tyler mused. “It really did work out to re-record the track when I was feeling better. And I think removing the part about smelly pussy helped make it a smash hit.”
