When I was a child I honestly used to think when we were driving in the car and we had the radio on and we returned to the car after an hour or so, the same song would be playing?!?!

When I was about 5, I thought the song by Tina Turner..'What's love got to do with it,' was 'What's love Dr. Doolittle,' I thought it was so cool that she would sing a song about a guy that talked to animals.

Anyone remember "Lara's Theme" from the movie "Dr Zhivago?" I was about 10 when it came out and I think the Ray Coniff singers had a recording of it on the radio with lyrics. The last line was, "Godspeed, my love, till you are mine again," but I thought they were singing, "Don't speak, my love, till you are mine again." I always wondered how anyone could just stop speaking till they saw their sweetheart again, but I figured it was because they were so in love.

I thought that the name of singer "Dinah Shore" was "Dinosauer" and that she must be awfully old.

When she was about eight, my sister came into the living room one day and asked my mom "What's a skeregin' word?" Mom was bewildered and asked her what she meant. My sister sang "You know- Where seldom is heard a skeregin word, and the skies are not cloudy all day." It was "Home on the Range" The word was "Discouraging" LOLOL

I used to believe…

When I was a kid and we'd sing:

"My country t'is of the
sweet land of libery
of thee I sing"

I thought we were singing,

"My country Tisabee,
sweet land of liver-ty,
of the IC."

I had no clue where Tisabee was, where they ate liver and belonged to a club called the I.C.

When I was a kid and I heard the song, "What becomes of the broken hearted?" I used to think that the second line was "paid a dime but only farted." I still think of that line when the song comes on.

For the longest time I thought the opening lyrics to "Song 2" by Blur were "I got my head shaved, by a cham-oh-che."

I asked my British friends what a chamoche was, they just looked at me like I was nuts.

I looked up the lyrics: "I got my head checked, by a jumbo jet."

I used to believe that you can sing whatever you wanna say that doesn't mean anything in a song. When I knew you can't,I was like shocked to know how they memorized songs so fast..
