music

I used to think that all songs that played on television were pop songs.

So one time when I was chatting on Yahoo Messenger, this person mentioned Puddle of Mudd and told them there's a pop band called Puddle Of Mudd. My brother then corrected me by saying that Puddle of Mudd is a ROCK band.

When I was in the first grade, a little boy I knew told me one day what his parts were called. The next day I heard the song "Venus in Blue Jeans" on the radio. I thought they were referring to the same word. I was shocked that such a dirty song would be allowed on the radio and would get terribly embarrassed whenever I was in the car with my family and it started playing.

When I was about 6 years old, I believed the start of "Oh Canada" was: "Oh Canada, our home and naked land ... "

I couldn't figure out what not wearing clothes had to do with Canada.

Nirvana- Smells Like Teen Spirit

My friend thought that instead of
"here we are now, entertain us"
that it was, "here we are now, eat potatoes"!

i guess it is pretty hard to understand Curt. Wierd Al makes fun of the song and not being able to understand what hes saying, so watch it if you haven't already.

I used to think the song our lips are sealed said 'i saw the seal'

My fiancé's brother thought Moby's "Lift Me Up" had a gay pride theme because instead of hearing "Lift me up, lift me up..." he heard "lesbian, lesbian". Now I hear that every time I listen to the song

When I was around six, I wondered why in real life, people did not go around singing the way they did in musicals and disney movies. Sometimes I used to just sing when I was in public, hoping that people would join in. It's quite embarrassing to think of now, because I had no talent! And I didn't even sing real songs, just random lines that came to my head to no particular tune.

my darling little sister used to think that "You are my sunshine" contained the following: "You are a clementine, clementine... grandpa!"

I used to believe…

The Nickel Creek song, "Spit On A Stranger", says "I could spit on a stranger, pull me out." (I don't get it, really.) Instead, when I was younger I reckoned it went, "I could shit on a stranger, oh meow."

I used to believe…

This is really dumb, but you know the AC/DC song 'Dirty deeds done dirt cheap' or whatever it was? Well I thought for about 5 years that it was 'Dirty deeds and the done for cheese' I was messed up. ;)

My younger brother used to think that song by the blue man group, instead of "I'm blue, babadi abadi..." went, "Oh, I'm a bee. I'm a guy. "I'm a bee. I'm a guy." etc. It was hilarious he never could figure out why we would laugh like maniacs when he sang along.

I used to believe that the Chumbawumba song 'Amnesia' said "Do you soccer punch long-term memory loss?" when it was actually "Do you suffer from long-term memory loss?" My father heard me sing it once and laughed so hard he cried... and still wouldn't tell me the correct lyrics.

I thought Madonna's song "Papa Don't Preach" was a complicated metaphor about something I didn't understand (but definitely NOT about keeping an actual baby).

I used to believe…

When my brother was younger, he thought the chorus to billy ray cyrus' 'Burn down the trailer park' was 'burn down the tranamar' .. we never did have the heart to correct him, to this day im preetty sure he still sings it like that.

I used to think "Led Zeppelin" was a solo artist or something and his name actually was "Led Zeppelin"
