Misheard song lyrics

Haha!!

My mind has drawn a blank but I am sure I have had some equally funny lyric fails.

The classic song "I still haven't found what I'm looking for" I would sing "these silly walls" not city ? H was not impressed as a die hard U2 fan.

I am the biggest culprit of this but my mind is blank at the moment.

There were 2 versions of this song, Sting did one I think, but I always thought 'Jamaican in New York' was 'I'm a John Major in New York'.

Ha! These are great.

John Major in New York. Classic.

Can't think of any misheard song lyrics, but I thought that Elvis sang 'Crazy Little Thing Called Love' and 'Lonely This Christmas' even though the other members of Queen quite clearly say 'Ready Freddie' in CLTCL.

I was convinced Elvis sang Lonely this Christmas until about 2 months ago!

Eh? You mean to tell me it isn't? ?

"Why don't you come all over Valerie".

What CL said?!?!

Waaaaaaa ?

Ha Kharv that made me chuckle. I always used to think The Corss song ? Leave me Breathless was leave me Bradley.

Lady Gaga - Poker face

I thought she was singing

'He'll be back, he'll be back, no he can't read a map...'

seriously, when you listen to it, you'll hear it too...maybe....

& Nicki Minaj (I think is the artist) Pound the alarm...I thought was Sound the alarm. Until my step daughter told me otherwise!

I don't have one personally that I can think of, but have you seen the you tube clip of the woman singing Mariah Carey, without you?

Hilarious.

I think I mishear lyrics more than get them right!! This also included once arguing over lyrics with the artist who actually WROTE the lyric ?

The most recent one is a Rhianna song, I'm not even sure what the correct lyrics are , or the name of the song but it goes like this:

"I'm gonna love you, like a hot pie"

ha ha ha, poor valerie!!!

when i was younger i used to think Barry Manalow's 'Mandy' went "oh Mandy, you came and you stopped me from shaving" !!

H though the Spiderman theme had the line "he has eyes" in it until quite recently!

In my young head "Annie are you ok?" In smooth criminal became "edgy ah Woking"

makes no sense

I just remembered a couple.

As a child my parents used to play their Boney M records and I used to think 'by the rivers of Babylon' was 'by the rivers of Barbie doll'

More recently Lady Gaga's 'Just dance' at the beginning she sings 'red one, laaaady gagaaaaa' but I thought it was 'Red wine, Laaaady Gagaaaaa'

Balls in a heat wave!

I always thought, and still sing, 'Balls in a heat wave' for Wiley's 'Causing a heatwave'

Makes me smile to sing about a pair of really hot balls in a heatwave. It makes me glad I don't have balls. Oh and I use the term 'sing' loosely. Squark may be more apt.

From Macy Gray's "I try"

"I wore goggles when you are not here" (my world crumbles when you are not here) --> you are not going to be able to unhear that now.

In Dirty Diana there is a part where he just sings "Diana! Diana! Dirty Diana!" and to be it sounds like "Nigella! Nigella!" Again, you are not going to be able to unhear it now.

P said that when he was 12, so when his English wasn't as good as it is now, he used to hear the song "Yesterday" as "yes today". I think that's quite sweet ?

This reminds me of that funny foreign Idol audition

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQ2fQHvo02Q

I thought it was 'Eddie are you walking'.

Nope! A band called Mud apparently!

Ruby Ruby Ruby ahhhhaahhhh I thought was Scooby Scooby Scooby ahhhhaahh. H was pissing himself laughing at me when he heard me singing it

New York concrete jungle where dreams are made

I thought it was New York concrete jungle wet dreams are made of. ?

Is this lyric not 'I'm an Englishman in New York' ????

Yes - I thought she'd misheard it twice!

Pandora, you do realise it's not either of those, don't you?

Ha ha ha, I thought maybe I had got it wrong !

Van Morrison's Brown Eyed Girl...

"Hey there amigo"

There is a song called Jamacian in New York

Oh is there?! I never knew that!

I'm sure I've told you al this one of mine before (and bear in mind I know ZILCH about football).

In Three Lions" I thought "30 years of hurt" was about a useless manager (perhaps)... and heard "Bertie is a berk"
