'I've got candy in my ears tonight, baby'.

I still hear Soundgarden's Outshined as "show me the Power Shower" instead of "show me the power, child"
I wondered why Cornell was asking for a Power Shower, he must of been really dirty!

My 3 year old daughter sings "Sailing, Sailing 10239" instead of Paul McCartney's holiday tune "Simply Having a Wonderful Christmastime". i never correct her, cuz it's so cute.

KT in KC

My latest misheard lyric was thinking Gwen Stefanis "Cause I aint no holla back girl" said "Aint No Harlem fat Girl"

And they laughed and laughed

Sarah

A friend of mine misheard the Band Aid song "Do they know it's Christmas?" Real lyrics......."The greatest gift they'll get this year is LIFE". She heard it has, "the greatest gift they'll get this year is RICE!!"

You know the song, "Groovin'" by the Rascals?

I was convinced that a specific part of the lyric was/is..."that would be ecstasy..you and me and Leslie"..

I kept thinking, "Who in the hell is Leslie?"

Laurie Kendrick

well im still a kid but on the song i dont wanna be in love when it said i dont wanna be in love i thought it said i dont wanna be a lump

my dad always thought that in the song "like a prayer" - madonna, where it says "let the choir sing" he thought it said "level crossing" for years. i found it hilarious. haha

Jooles

I used to belive in the song Sk8er boy by avril lavin the line "and thay had a problem with his baggy cloths" when i was littel i thogt that the line was "and thay had a problem with his pet crows

Pet crows

I still think in the Guns N' Roses song "Welcome to the Jungle" it goes Ya learn ta live like a Dragonball, instead of animal, it still sounds like that to me...

In the song Paradise City, I thought it was Paramount city, because I went to a paramount theme park.

Livin' like a dragonball

The first line of "Sweet Home Alabama" is "These wheels keep on turnin." For the longest time I thought it was "Sweet, sweet home school Bob Simon."

Chris

I remember listening to the radio in the car as a child when the hymn "How Great Thou Art" came on. Instead of "how great thou art", I thought it was "I'll break your heart."

G

There's a John Mellencamp song that has the line "I fight authority, and authority always wins." I thought they were saying "I fight Dorothy, and Dorothy always wins!"

Boomer

In Paul Simon's Gracelands I was convinced the line 'She brushed her hair from her forehead' was 'She brushed her and farted'
I,m still not sure! Try it.

Geetee

"For He's A Jolly Good Fellow" song - my mum used to believe the line "which nobody can deny"
was actually "strawberry candy eyes".

Whatever!

I used to think that the last line to "I've Got A Lovely Bunch Of Coconuts" was "Take one small one, balance it on your head." I only realised it was "Big ones, small ones, some as big as your head" when I saw it written down. I've never had brilliant hearing.

Bonnie Tylers "Total Eclipse of the Heart"

Bonnies version - I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark, We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks

My version - I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark, We're living in a shed and eating Kelloggs Start

1998 - I think it was around the time "start" was first out, and I became a tad confused...

Boo

When I was maybe 4 or 5, the song 'Taking care of business' came on the radio.. and I sang 'Taking care of biscuits'! I thought it was that until I was like 7 or 8. My parents still make fun of me everytime it comes on the radio.

Strangers in the night, exchanging glasses...

well I was only young at the time!
