Mad-Eye Moody

When i heard the song Heart Of Glass(Blondie) i heard this

Yeah, Riding High, My Mother said you were sh*te

i found out the words were

Yeah, riding high on love's true bluish light

What about this one?
In the song by Yes called "Owner of a lonely heart", when they come to the part where they sing:
Owner of a lonely heart!
Owner of a lonely heart!
I used to think they tried to make people steal things from the lonely people on the street by singing:
Only rob the lonely ones!
Only rob the lonely ones!

Imagine that :D

Morten Vestergaard

i used to believe the song went like this: "mairzydoats and dozydoats and little lamsedivy a kiddle eat divy too wouldn't you?" couln't figure out what those mairzydoats and dozydoats were or what a 'kiddle' was. It wasn't until I was over 20 years old that I heard the real words: "mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy, a kid'll eat ivy too wouldn't you?" Silly how we hear things as children - frightening too when you think about it!

In Shinehead's "Jamaican In New York", there is a part where they say: I'm an Alien, I'm a legal Alien, I'm a Jamaican In New York, I thought they said I'm a Jamaican Emu Y'all

Jackson

I used to think that Frankee's song F.U.R.B. (F**k you right back) the line 'I had better sex all alone ( ha ha ha ha )' was ' I had better sex on the phone' I used to sing along to that but then i read the lyrics, but i still sing it that way...i have no clue where i got 'on the phone from'

Perverted one aka Melissa C.

i was somehow under the (mistaken) impression that the chorus of EMF's "Unbelievable" was saying "your ugly balls"

When I was a young kid, me and my brother always thought that adam ant was singing the line in prince charming as 'stop reading Dandy' put on your big ganzie' instead of 'stop being dandy show them you are handsome'
by the way a ganzie is a liverpudlian term for jumper or cardigan.

Rob,Bootle

as kids we used to believe that the song by shakin stevens and bonnie tyler was 'a f***ing good way' instead of a rockin good way.

other songs with misheard lyrics by shaky were
'give me your fart tonight'
a love worth way-ting for'
you dwive me cwazy'
oh goolie'
and finally where he sings 'I saw an eyeball peeping through a smoky cloud behind the green door' we would sing'I saw an A**ehole peeping through a smoky cloud.....no, we were NOT shakin stevens fans

Dev,

My Brother used to think that Chris de Burgh was singing 'Lady in bed' instead of lady in red'

a few months ago I heard a Cliff Richard song called Big Ship' but honestly it sounded as if he was singing "Love is a big DICK following me" no lie, it's true.

My mum is as daft as anything because she makes us all laugh by singing her version of Madonna's 'Music' as "Hey mr dj put the kettle on"

And a friend of ours always referred to 'Don't look back in anger' by Oasis as 'the sally song'

Jud, W Yorkshire

A while ago I was listening to the song by Lulu, 'I'm a tiger' but I honestly thought it sounded as if she was singing 'I'm a tiny girl, I'm a tiny girl'

Phil, Ireland

When I was a kid my mum was mad about 60's music and especially loved the song 'Bobby's girl' however I used to sing it as 'I wanna be barbie's girl'
quite worrying really if you think about it, no wonder Ken and Barbie split up!

Phil McCoy

I misheard the lyrics to Tina Turner's song 'I don't wanna fight no more' as 'I don't wanna fart no more'

and I also used to think that Madonna's 'papa don't preach' was called 'poppadom pete' I thought she was on about a fella who owned an Indian takaway.

Marie

my little sister for a contry song that went I'm all right several times she would say elmo right

I used to believe the lyrics to Simon and Garfunkel's "Scarborough Fair" were, as follows: "Are you going to Scarborough Fair?/ Where the Dead live and die . . ." As such, I was irrationally terrified of the song for many years. Always imagining this carnival of the dead, full of skeletons on ferris wheels and such.
