It was time for another super “Sunday Lunch” with Robert Fripp and Toyah.

This time around, the King Crimson guitarist and his singer wife have a little fun with the Jimi Hendrix Experience classic “Purple Haze”, incorporating rock’s most famous misheard lyric into their performance.

The rock couple have gone viral over the past month or so with their “Sunday Lunch” lockdown series. Their cover of Metallica’s “Enter Sandman” is closing in on 5 million YouTube views, with most of the comments centered on Toyah’s revealing choice of attire rather than the fact that she was riding an exercise bike the whole time.

In between Metallica and Hendrix, they’ve offered up eccentric takes on Billy Idol’s “Rebel Yell”, Guns N’ Roses’ “Welcome to the Jungle”, and the aforementioned Joan Jett hit “I Love Rock ‘n’ Roll”.
