I used to believe that the duo Hall & Oats were farmers. Why else would they name themselves "Haulin' Oats"?
I was raised Catholic. While we were driving down the road, the Bob Dylan song came on, with the lyrics, "Everybody must get stoned." The only linguistic reference I had for the word stoned was from the story in the bible where people are chucking rocks at other people. I was totally puzzled as to why everyone would have to be pelted with rocks, but figured that it must be part of growing up.
Watching Paul Simon doing his thang with the African Mumbasa band, I asked my mother (because Mother's know EVERYTHING) why he was the only white man amongst the black men.
Being a little sick of my constant questions, my mother replied "he's a £!£$NG albino".
I actually believe Paul Simon was an albino till the age of 14.
For a long time when I was little, I used to believe that the person singing Rod Stewart's songs was a black woman...I didn't know the name of the person, it just sounded like a black woman to me, especially "Forever Young". I was floored when I finally found out it really was a scrawny white Englishman...
when Iwas Younger I was convinced that micheal Jackson was a woman. I couldv'e sworn I saw him in a blue dress on TV. Finally years later I saw the same picture and it was actually diane Sawyer
When I was about 9, I learned that talent scouts were responsible for turning ordinary kids into stars. I thought they were lurking everywhere, so I used to go around all dressed up and singing, thinking that a talent scout could spot me at anytime and put me on the new Mickey Mouse show.
I used to believe The Who were named for the programme 'Doctor Who'. Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer must have thought the same because they did a sketch on 'Shooting Stars' where four incarnations of the Doctor were singing and playing 'My Generation'!
when i saw the movie the labyrinth i thought david bowie was a girl. even with his predominant package (i admit i was confused) i still thought he was a she.
When I was young I thought that only people in Texas had heard of Michael Jackson. This of course was when Thriller came out. When I went to Florida to visit my family I was shocked to find out that he was also quite popular elsewhere.
When the Rutles programme was first screened, I thought that when they were nicknamed 'the prefab four' that it meant less than fab! Then I found out about prefabricated houses, also known as prefabs.
I used to think the band Lindisfarne was named Linda's Farm. This was around the time Paul McCartney bought a farm in Scotland!
I used to believe that Spinal Tap was a real band. I was 19 and gutted when I found out.
i used to believe that when they played songs on the radio that the pop stars would come into the studio and play all the songs live.
When I was little I used to believe that micheal Jaxon was a girl
Until just today, as a matter of fact (I'm 22) I thought Phil Collins was American...because he didn't have an accent when he sang!!! I found on this site that he's British! :D
Once I was watching Janet Jackson's "Miss You Much" music video. My sister came in and proudly announced: "I always KNEW that Michael Jackson is gay! In this video he looks exactly like a girl!"
WHen I was little I had this poster of Michael Jackson on the back of my bedroom door (it was a thriller poster). At night when the moon would shine on it, I felt that Michael's eyes were following me and it creeped me out.
I used to believe I`ll sing with spice girls one day.
But then they broke up!
I cryed =((
I thought that the name of singer "Dinah Shore" was "Dinosauer" and that she must be awfully old.
I used to wonder why people didn't use his first name when they spoke of McJagger of the Rolling Stones.
