Swanny17 Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 I honestly thought that the first line was “place your hands, on my hole...” Apparently that’s not the case. So what songs do you mis-sing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gjcc Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Wham: Last Christmas Much to my fathers mirth, young me somehow amalgamated the intro to Star Trek “Space the final frontier...” into this song. But it turns out Wham! aren’t big Trekkies and definitely aren’t singing ”This year, The Semi-Frontier” I still hear it every time today.

Pans Jambo Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Springsteen’s “Dancin in the dark” song has a line that goes “I shake this world off my shoulders...” For years I heard “ a shed just walloped ma shoulders”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulysses Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Something I never misheard until someone else said it to me a couple of years ago, and now I can't unhear it, is this line from Sister Sledge's We Are Family: "just let me staple the vicar we're givin' love in a family dose" I know it's not the lyric, but it's stuck in my head.

Les Izemore Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Creedence Clearwater Revival Bad Moon Rising (chorus) “Don't go around tonight Well it's bound to take your life There's a bad moon on the rise” The third line I misheard as: “There’s a bathroom on the right.” Apparently that’s a common one. I also misheard The Stranglers, Golden Brown line “with my mind she runs” as “with my Manchroes”. I’ve no idea what or who Mancheroes are.

Footballfirst Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 My wife thought that the lyrics of Moose T. and Hot 'n' Juicy's "Horny '98" was "honey, honey honey" so wasn't too bothered by our two girls, who were aged 10 and 14 at the time, playing it constantly. Until she was told the actual lyrics, that was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I P Knightley Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Drive in Saturday: "It's a crash course for the ravens..." It's not a huge leap from the actual (ravers) but I didn't think that 'ravers' was a thing in the '70s and the rest of the song's lyrics are all over the place anyway.
