While listening to the title track on Paul Simon's latest CD, "You're the one" I was wondering why it sounds like he's saying "you broke my fart" instead of "you broke my heart". I also noticed in Sting's "Fields of Gold" from Ten Summoner's Tales it sounds like he's singing "ufon the fields of barley" instead of "upon the .....".

What causes this? Bad recording, bad CD, inadequate or bad equipment?

Will superior equipment correct this?
