The story hendrix gave to eddie kramer was that it was from a comic scifi story he read where aliens attacked and used a ray gun that shot a purple haze.

This is one of the most famous misheard song lyrics ever and the inspiration for the "Archive of Misheard Lyrics" at http://www.kissthisguy.com/ 8)

Have you listened to the live version im talking about because you probably havent im just asking someone to actually listen to the live version and then maybe you people will realize im not the dumbass and maybe you are by jumping to the conclusion that i am talking about the studio version.

No in the studio version he says "kiss the sky", but some times when he was playing live he said "kiss that guy" just to be funny.

As much as I enjoy the pile-on.............IIRC I read in a bio (of the same name as the disputed lyric) that Jimi sang "kiss this guy"at a show while hanging on Noel Redding.

Having said that................

What i find utterly absurd is that someone could take hendrix's joke about his own work and equate that with a form of homosexuality. Not only is it slightly daft its also a bit homophobic.

Please take that as the joke its meant to be.

Common Mondegreen

A common misheard lyric in the song is "'scuse me while I kiss this guy". The actual line is "'scuse me while I kiss the sky". In fact, it has even been said that Jimi Hendrix himself perpetrated this mondegreen by actually using it as a joke while singing Purple Haze live in concert.[10]
