misheard lyrics

There was a song in the 90's. I don't remember the band but in the chorus, it said "I'm standing by you". I was pretty young then and I loved to watch ice-skating. I used to think the singer said, "Oksana Baiul". I always wondered why he was singing about a skater.

my brother used to think that Manfred man sung "ha ha Santa Claus" instead of "ha ha said the clown"
quite rude to laugh at Santa, I thought he would find nothing in his stocking ...

I always thought Celine Dion, in"It's All Coming Back to Me Now," sang..."It was more than all your lousy love." Now I realize she sings, "It was more than all your laws allow." I thought she was just rude !!!

A friend of mine was singing the song by Gabrielle from the Bridget Jones film, except she was merrily singing away 'Valerieeeee' instead of 'Out of reach', i don't know if she thought that was what Bridget liked to be called at the weekend.

My dad is a huge AC/DC fan, so I grew up listening to them...a lot. Now, Dirty Deeds is one his all time favorite songs, and I used to think that they said, "Dirty jeans and a thunder jeep," instead of, "Dirty deeds and they're done dirt cheap." And I can still listen to that song and hear my version of it. Try it sometime. It's funny.

I always thought that the words to the song yellow taxi were "they paved paradise, and put up a fucking lot" I was really puzzled when I heard this on the radio and it wasn't censored, until I realized the actually words

My roommate and I though the chorus of Beck's song "Loser" was "So, open the door..." when the correct line was "Soy un perdedor" hehe!

My boyfriend when he was little used to like queen and there was one song they did that went something like "be already,be already" (thats what i thought it was when i was little)or something like that but he used sing "Pee on eric,Pee on eric" He still sings it now!

Samantha

remember that song "tubthumper" by chumbawamba? well, i used to think that they were saying "i get no doubt, but i can over-get it". turns out that they were actually saying "i get knocked down, but i get up again". i felt like a complete idiot when i found the correct lyrics online a few years ago! how i came up with "over-get", i'll never know :D

i cant remember the name of the song but the actual lyrics are 'and watch the sun come up on the santa monica boulevard' (i think) and for years i thought it was 'and watch the sun come up in santa clauses couple of bars'

R.E.M.'s Its the End of the World As We Know It went
"A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies"

Heres our versions of some Bee Gees songs
1) More than a woman -Bald headed woman
2)Night Fever-nice beaver
and the line in Staying Alive, where they sing 'its alright, its okay.....
we sang 'Its alright, its okay, you make love the other way'

But my friend had us laughing when she misheard the lyrics to the spice girls '2 become 1' the bit that goes 'I had a little love, now I'm back for more' she sings ' I had a little dove, now he's splattered on the floor' mad or what?

John, Bolton

The first time I heard Jammin, by Marley, I was in a very fast car with the windows down. And I since I didn't know the name of the song, I thought that he was saying Vagina, when in fact he was saying Jammin'.

I hope you like vagina too.
