When Bruce Springsteen's Darkness on the Edge of twon came on the radio I used to freak out because he talked about lying in bed next to Kate. I was only about 9 or 10. I used to get up real close to the speaker because I thought that the air being forced out with every beat was actually Bruce's breath.
I used to think that the term 'Prima Donna' was actually 'Pre-Madonna',
i.e. a singer who makes pop music in the style usual before Madonna
(cf. 'Pre-Raphaelite'.)
I use to think Joe Cocker was black.
I thought Marc Almond was a girl dressed as a man. From this point onwards I used to hide in the darkest room of the house to listen to the Top 40 every Sunday because I thought my mum would shout at me if she caught me listening to Soft Cell. It made the whole experience incredibly exhilarating and happily I still retain some of that excitement even today when I hear their stuff. He changed my life for ever at the age of 9! Cheers Marc!
I used to believe that at Grateful Dead shows the band would throw acid on the crowd. I had a student teacher in first grade that had told the class she just went to a Dead show and I asked her if she got splashed with acid. Of course, I was thinking about acid of the sulfuric kind, not the LSD kind.
John Lennon was such a hero in my home that when he died, I thought that we wouldn't have to go to school because it would become a national holiday.
I used to believe that the movie "KISS Meets The Phantom was real, and Gene Simmons & Co. had superPowers like super hearing and fire breath.
I used to think that Cher really WAS a gypsy and a thief and some kind of egyptian ruler.
I used to think Neneh Cherry would fall in love with me and we would have great sex all the time !

When I was about 8 years old, one of my Mum's favourite singers died. She had quite a few of his records. I thought that these records would now become silent. (Don't really know why I thought this as I had worked out that when playing the records, the singer wasn't actually in the record player).
I used to believe that Nikki Six was a girl and was married to Vince Neil.
My Dad always told me that The Kinks were from Wigan
Age 7 and desperate to emulate Donny Osmond's fine coiffure I cut a huge triangle out of my fringe for a middle parting. I hadn't realised that hair had to be styled and thought Donny was just lucky enough to have hair that grew that way.
