misheard lyrics

Remember the song "Out of Reach" by Gabrielle? Well my horrible elder brother convinced me that she wasnt' singing "out of reach" but was singing "Valerie".....and I was caught singing Valerie in public.....lol...

Kate the Kat

I thought that the line in The Beatles' Get Back "I loathed that sweater" in fact it is "low necked sweater"

Helen

My most favorite song by Elton John, "Someone Saved My Life Tonight", was one of many songs I sang wrongly.
In one verse, I sang "And stricken by a harlot's social scene, just a pawn I paid five dollar and eighty quid", when it was "I'm strangled by your haunted social scene, just a pawn out-played by a dominating queen."
...Luckily I now have a book of lyrics to help correct me.

Li A

i thought the tiffany song, "I think we're alone now" was sooo risque... I heard the words "holding on to one night stands" instead of "holding on to one another's hands"!

Lauren

There's one part in the Metallica remake of Whiskey In A Jar that I can't quite understand, but I think it sounds like 'your brains will come home in a jar.'

steelmag

my sister and her firiends who didnt speak english as well believed that the famous line from the grease song "tell me more, tell me more" actually said...chamimoa chamimoa

me

I thought the words to "When I come around" by Green Day was "When I caught a red hound"--- not horrible, it fits perfectly, just doesn't make much sense with the rest of the lyrics

JoJo

In the song "I'm every woman" I wasn't sure what the words were, so I made up my own version called "Climb every mountain" and it makes sense with the next lyric "it's all in me"

RANEBOW

I though at the end of Fatman Scoop's Be Faithful that he said 'Batman School, broke the clamp'

Instead of Fatman Scoop, crooklyn clan

Man, i'm dumb.

Confoozed

I would sing out the lyrics to Creedence Clearwater Revival song, Lodi "stuck in Lodi again" as "only the old die young"...until a college friend (after she recovered from laughing) told me the real lyrics. I still have trouble referring to the song correctly!

TurboKitty

my uncle and dad have argued this for years...in the song Henery the Eighth my uncle swears the line goes "She's been married several times before" when obviously it is "seven times before" if this Henery bloke is number 8 on her list...jeez

aly

In one of Eminems song, its goes Marashall, which is his real first name. But i thought i keept saying "Usher". I was like, why Usher??

Hot Sauce

I used to think in the song good riddance (time of your life) by greenday when they say "time grabs you by the wrist" i thought it was "tom grabs you by the wrist" and i thought they were talking about tom delonge from blink 182

christina

When my son Liam, who is nearly 17 now, was little he always used to sing his version of the Los Lobos song 'La Bamba' as 'la la la bamba, spaghetti meatballs, the bigga banana' it always made me and his dad fall about in fits of laughter

Marie, Brighton

Joseph Quick thought the words in roses by outcast were I know you like to think your sh*t dont stand and Caroline shes 49

Joe Quicks a muppet

i used to believe that the song staying alive went sell it high

andy denny

In the song Blinded By the Light, I thought the words were "wrapped up like a douche, another roller in the night". What does that mean?! I'm still not sure exactly what the words are along with a few other verses I can't make out all the words to.

Anon

I used to think "Don't be fooled by the rock that i go" form Jenny from the block was "Don't be fooled by the LUCKS that i got" and i realised the correct one just now! after i look at the lyrics.

albert Lalrinchhana

In the Brittany Spear's song my daughter thought she said, "My onlyness is healing me, I must confess I silly leave, when your not with me I use my mind this is a sign, don't hit me baby one more time." She was five at the time!

momof3girls

When that "What a girl wants" song by Christina Aguilera came out, I thought the lyrics that were "Whatever makes me happy sets you free" was "Whatever makes me having sex, you three". I believed it for a long time until I actually read the lyrics.
