Just been reminded of a classic misheard lyric from the 90's whilst playing SongPop on Facebook. From I Try by Macy Gray..
Real lyric: Though I try to hide it, it's clear, my world crumbles when you are not near What I used to sing: Though I try to hide it, it's clear, I wear goggles when you are not near.

Chris Brown, With You.
"I need your boobs, I gotta see your boobs" ACTUAL: "I need you boo, I gotta see you boo" Stooshe ft Travie McCoy (rap part). "What a waste of a fat boob" Apparently it's actually "What a waste of a fat booty" |

My friend thought 'He's big and he's bad, I love him like mad' from Black Heart by Stooshe was 'He's big and he's black, I love him like that'
![]() I originally thought that 'Tight Jeans' in Starstrukk was 'Iced Tea'

I thought in Natalia Kill's Free she sang 'If the black man calls tell him I'm free' where the real lyrics are 'If the bank man calls tell him I'm free' lol.

Bruno Mars - Marry You
What I heard: Is it the look in your eyes? or is it this dancing Jew. Actual lyrics: Is it the look in your eyes? or is it this dancing juice

Well, in Fast Car I was sure Tracy Chapman's pal had "arms and legs wrapped around my shoulders"
I thought it was an interesting position... And have we had any Cyndi Lauper yet? "I drove all night, crapped in your room, woke you from your sleep to make love to you"... And this wasnt mine, but on a lyrics video for Titanium "ricochet, you take your aim" was interpreted as "brick of shame, you take the rain" I found that amusing. haha |

I was recently singing along to an old A-Ha song, when my son asked me what on earth I was singing and I said "Rain on me". He told me it was actaully "Take On Me". How mad can you get, all those years and I had thought they were singing "Rain On Me".
![]() I remember Noel Edmunds (when he used to do the Breakfast Show on Radio One) had a section on misheard lyrics. One of the ones that I remember was someone who thought that in the background of Elvis's "Teddy Bear", that the backing singers were singing Hot Bananas. When you listen to it, it does sound like that. Another one was someone who thought that in "Bad Moon Rising" that they were singing There's a bathroom on the right, instead of There's a bad moon on the rise.

When I was younger I always thought in Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights" she was singing "Debbie Harry, let me grab your soul away in stead of "Ooh let me have it, let me grab your soul away"

For ages I thought Wonderful World had the lyrics "the colours of the rainbow so pretty in disguise" instead of "so pretty in the skies".
And in Elvis' "Is It So Strange" I thought when he sang "I love you more than" he was singing "I love your mother!" |

Beyoncé's Diva
What the actual lyric is - 'Where your boss at?' What I heard - 'Where's your balls at' |

On her debut single "You Bring Me Joy", I thought that former X Factor contestant Amelia Lily sang something about "ghetto madness" in the chorus. She actually says "forget all the madness". I preferred it when I was mishearing it!

Until just now I thought Jessie J 'Domino' was:
'own me like a restaurant', instead of 'boomin' like a bass drum'. I don't know how my mind comes up with these things. |

I've never forgotten my disappointment with REM when I read the lyrics to Losing My Religion and found it didn't really go
That's me in the corner That's me in the spotlight Losing my religion Trying to keep a pew... |

Yay this thread is back! It does make me smile
I'll add a few more: I thought the opening line of Outkast 'Hey Ya' was: "My baby don't mess around because she loves the thought and it's an open show" ACTUAL: "My baby don't mess around because she loves me so and this I know for sure" Just heard Sex On Fire on the radio, and my dad said "this poor guy, his socks are on fire!" |
