Nicom Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 When I was younger I'd always sing "What's love Dr Who, Dr Who with it?" instead of "What's love gotta do, gotta do with it." I was adamant that I was right whenever my sister started to make fun... now I look back - how did my version make any sense? I also called "Time Warp", "Time Walk" for a while.

Guest [x]whacko[x]jen[x] Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 I thought 'Livin' La Vida Loca' was 'Livin' the three five loca!' What ever a three five loca is. I'm embarrassed!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si-Co Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Gosh, there are loads of song lyrics I used to get wrong, but I can't actually think of any right now (apart from the ones I deliberately change because it make the song more interesting!) A famous misheard lyric is from Jimi Hendrix's song 'Puple Haze' - 'Excuse me while I kiss the sky' was believed by many to be 'Excuse me while I kiss this guy'! I never knew Jimi had those tendancies! I'll have a think and post some of my own soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicom Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 There's a song, I think it's called "If you tolerate this"... Anyway! I have it on my iPod... but saved as "Track 9" for some reason. And no artist. So... it came up on shuffle, and it being quite a good song, I liked it and kept listening to it. But I was horrified by what I thought the words were... Instead of "if you tolerate this, then your children will be next" I thought it was "if you turn a rapist, then your children will be next" I looked so stupid when I was corrected...

Jess Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 It's not a misheard lyric, as such, but I've recently got back into the Spice Girls (yep, I'm just that cool!) and the lyrics of 'Wannabe' puzzle me. If you wannabe my lover, You gotta get with my friends Am I the only one who thinks that's a little weird, or am I missing something blindingly obvious here?

Cerise Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 No those are definitely the lyrics... Yeah they do sound odd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 In "Summer Loving" from Grease they sound like they're singing about Demi Moore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siog Alainn Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 didn't happen to me but I've heard of U2's Mysterious ways lyrics being misheard as "Shamu, the mysterious whale" instead of "she moves in mysterious ways" makes me laugh every time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si-Co Posted July 15, 2007 Report Share Posted July 15, 2007 You could argue that The Police were singing 'I feel Sue Lawley' instead of 'I feel so lonely'! Or that Madonna was singing about Anna Friel in her song Ray of Light: 'Anna Fr-i-el, Anna Fr-i-el'.. it is of course 'an' I fe-e-el'! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
