misheard lyrics

I believed the lyrics to "Show me the meaning of being lonely" by the Backstreet Boys was "show me the meaning of being long-legged."

A couple years or so ago when Jesse McCartney was super famous and he came out with the song "How Do You Sleep?"
When he sings the part "it still smells just like you d*** those sweet memories" I thought he was saying man not d***

In the song Bad Romance I thought "want your bad romance" was "watch out bad romance". I am 16 and i found this out recently.

I never could figure out the significance of why the "dogs say godnight" in L. Armstrongs song "What a Wonderful World." Of course finding out the words are actually "dark sacred night" helped my understanding immeasurably.

I was listening to Temple of Love by the Sisters of Mercy with my roommate. There is a line that says "shine like thunder, cry like rain." He thought it was "shine like thunder, I like brains." I still sing it that way every time.

Kicking Miiiiiidgeeets, Kicking midgets in the park...
Was my belief of a Spunge song...
Unfortunately, it turns out to be Kicking Pigeons.
My way was funnier.

And my mum thought that the slipknot line 'We all got left behind' was actually 'We've all got nice eyes.'

And, that Where's Your Head At, my mum believed, was Wear Your Hair Down...
Luke thinks that too...

Bless...

Wuthering heights, I heard it as:
here on the wild, windy moores we'll roll and fall in brie.
you had a temper, like my jealous seal, so hot, so greasy
I hated you, badminton
bat cream in the night
you told me not to lose my flight
leave behind eye
wuthering, wuthering, wuthering nights
it's me, im kathy i've come home, come meet the animals
after that it's normal til:
I find the roof falls without you.

My mum used to think that the song "elevation" by U2 said, "Hell Damnation" and everytime she heard it on the radio she would say, "oo! this isnt a very nice song" hehe! when she found out the real words we teased her for having a mind full of rude words.

I used to think that Ace of Base sang, "I saw the SUN and it opened up my eyes..." instead of "I saw the sign."

The first time I heard Queensryche's "Jet City Woman" It sounded like the lyrics were "I look in your eyes, just like the rain. Washing the bread , wash all the meat"

This is not to say Geoff Tate's voice is incoherent. come on people, he's in credible. I think he broke my ears with a high note when I say QR in concert.

I used to think the song "Sunglasses At Night" (I guess that's the title) was saying, "Don't mess afraid with a guy in shades, oh no." I thought it was telling people not to doodoo (mess) while you are scared when you are in the same bathroom as a guy in sunglasses. It made no sense, I don't know WHY I thought that.

I have an Uncle who when he sings the Billy Joels song "allways a women to me" he will sing the line "oh she takes care of her son"When it's "oh she takes care of herself" lol

Fredric the entertainer

"Aye, little girls with battered heads... hey Aqualung!"

I used to believe that the song my bonnie lies over the ocean was my body lies over the ocean.

I am not much of a new country music fan. I like the old stuff (60's,70's)The song "Paint me to Birmingham" the first time I heard it I thought he was singing "Paint me a bunny hand" Since the laughter of my friends over this we have come up with more.."Paint me a burning ham" for one.

The line from "Daddy's Home" by Shep and the Limelighters says, "..your best friend wrote and told me.." I had to correct of friend who, from the the early 60s til about 1999, thought it was, "...your best friend Rhoda told me.."

When i was about 13 i heard this song by Earth Wind & Fire, called "Let's Groove tonight"
I thouroughly enjoyed it and kept remembering the part: Mister Scrooge! get you to move.
I found out 4 years later (17 years old now and desperately searching for that really cool song) that the actual words were: Let this groove! get you to move
