When the music video for "Helena" was first aired on MTV, I was so creeped out by Gerard Way that I actually convinced myself that he was a vampire and everybody else in the band were his zombie assistants. I had nightmares about the girl that jumped out of the coffin running after me and screaming: "I vant to suck your blood!" Now, I am older and not as stupid and have become a big fan of My Chemical Romance. Isn't it funny how people change like that?

When I was young, I thought the song "Secret Agent Man" was actually called "Secret Asian Man" and I could never understand why they had "taken away his name"

When I was little I loved the song "What kind of fool do you think I am?"These words are the chorus...My take on the song you ask?I sang it,What kind of food do you think I am?The sad part?I sang it this way until I was 11.

Until a few years ago, I thought Eric Clapton was saying "hey love" instead of Layla. I love this oldie and was singing it loud. My friend had a look of annoyance on her face when she said it's LAYLA!

I was about five when I first saw Britney Spears on a music video and I thought she was Rosa Parks for some reason. No clue why.

There's this church group called EFY that I listened to a lot. One of their songs is called 'We Believe.' One verse of it, in the chorus, is 'We believe in obedience ringing the bell of the free..." For several years, I thought it was 'We believe in the beady ants ringing the bell of the free', and I sang it like that every time. Finally one day I had a breakthrough.

There's an Irish music group called Celtic Women. On their Christmas CD, there is a song called "Play The Old Christmas Pipes." My dad burst out laughing one day when he heard both my mom and me sing, "Gravy on the Christmas pies...."

I used to believe…

My parents listened to a lot of The Doors when I was younger and looking at the front cover of the Doors' album, with Jim Morrison on the front, I was convinced he was a woman because he had long hair. In my mind long hair = woman. It didn't even occur to me that he was shirtless and had no breasts!

Also, listening to the lyrics of The Doors' songs, I was convinced that "Light My Fire" was about camping and whenever I listened to that song, and I'd imagine Jim Morrison and some girl trying to light a fire in the middle of the woods. Yes, I was five at the time!

in the song Im Blue I used to think the lyrics were, "im blue, i believe i would die, i believe i would die, i believe i would die..."

i thought, "those are odd lyrics."

When I was a kid, I was obsessed with the TV show Alf. Once, they showed an episode where Alf was lip-syncing "Old Time Rock and Roll" into a cucumber. After that, whenever I heard that song on the radio, I'd get all excited because it was Alf singing.

It took my parents months to convince me that it was really some guy named Bob Seger singing it.

I used to think Chevy Chase sang that "You Can Call Me Al Song" but it really just looked that way in the cideo. In reality it was the little guy playing the instruments who actually sang it, Paul Simon. Don't I feel dumb.

I thought until yesterday that the lyrics of the teenage mutant ninja turtles' s theme tune was-
Whan the Evil-Shredder-Of-Tax,
(rather than the evil shredder attacks)
I always thought it had some obscure political message.

Once while I was going somewhere with a friend and my sister the song "Blurry" by "Puddle Of Mud" started playing on the radio so me,my sister and my friend started to sing it. (We liked the song obviously.) But while me and my singer were singing the song correctly:
(It said :"Everything's so blurry and everyone's so fake and everybody's empty and everything is so messed up...")
my friend was singing the complete opposite of the song:
(She said:"Everything so perfect,everything so right..." And god knows what else...)And man did we make fun of her for it!!! Ha ha.

I used to think that the line in the song "Life in the Fast Lane" was "Fights in the Bat Plane".

I used to believe…

Growing up, we used to go to the local waterpark on the weekends. They used to play a lot of the songs from the Beach Boys. My fathers name is Bob Brown, and I used to thing their song "Barbra Ann" was actually being sung "Bob Bob Bob, Bob Bob Brown" and that the Beach Boys had written the song about my dad and dedicated it to him. My father knew I thought this and did not tell me until i figured it out when I was 10. He had been laughing at me about it for about 6 years.

My dad used to think that the part of the ghostbusters theme that went 'Who you gonna call? GHOSTBUSTERS!' actually said 'Who you gonna call? THOSE BASTARDS'.

Nuff said.
