Up until about 2 weeks ago, I thought the line, "I got my first real six-string," (from Summer of '69), was "I got my first real sex dream!" I thought it was a bit risqué!
I used to think in "All My Life" by K-Ci and Jo-Jo it said:
I praise the Lord above
For sending me your love
I'll tear a cherry 'cause
Instead of
I praise the Lord above
For sending me your love
I cherish every hug
I also used to think in the "Blue" song, you remember, that techno one? It said, "I'm blue and I believe I will die..." I'd hate hearing it, thinking, gosh how negative!
Dancing bean,feel the meat on a tangerine....
dancin' queen,its all fine your with mr bean oh yeah
you can dance in your underpants...
Those are some lyrics to dancing queen,not made up by me.
I thought that song " Play that funky music" was " Play that Fu**ing music". Weird!
I have two from the late 90s...
1. Three Lions - Jewels remain still gleaming instead of Jules Rimet still gleaming
2. Blue by Eiffel 65 Aberdeen I shall die Aberdeen I shall die
I always thought that this one song was called "yellow superstar" instead of "ghetto superstar". I really believed they were singing about a chinese superstar until my sister told me what it had to be .. they are still making fun of it!
I used to believe that the Offspring song "No Brakes" went "Tell Ballaws there is something singed always waiting for and waiting for the morning" instead of "Down below, there's a pile of sin, always waiting for and waiting for a warning."
top belief!
In the song "Green Grow the Rushes O" I thought - all through my childhood up until in my twenties - that the line 'Four for the Gospel makers' was 'Four for the Golf ball makers' ... never thought to question it . . .
i cant remember the name of the song but the actual lyrics are 'and watch the sun come up on the santa monica boulevard' (i think) and for years i thought it was 'and watch the sun come up in santa clauses couple of bars'
"No woman no cry" by Bob Marley. I always used to sing along to that song. My favourite line was - because of its appealing paradoxical poetry - "My fear ist my only courage, so I've got to push on through." A couple of days ago I had to learn it's "My feet are my only carriage". How boring!
top belief!
I used to think that the Elton John song "That's Why They Call It The Blues" went "That's why they call it a loo." For years, I was certain that the song was about a toilet, although I don't know why anyone would want to sing about one.
I used to think in the song good riddance (time of your life) by greenday when they say "time grabs you by the wrist" i thought it was "tom grabs you by the wrist" and i thought they were talking about tom delonge from blink 182
I always thought that in the Queen song Bohiemian Rhapsody it sang: "Spare him his life from his warm sausages!" I had nightmares for years about aze-wielding oversized weiners.
When I was little and at Skateland (a place to rollerskate where they had music, and sometimes you could suggest songs) I heard this song called "poop that ass" so i really liked the beat so I suggested it. the Dj laughed at me, and clueless, i left to skate. In 6th grade I now know its Whoop there it is.
My brother used to think the song "Blue Velvet" was called "Ooh Melvin". I used to think my brother was an idiot.
top belief!
When ever Elvis sang "In the ghetto" I always thought he said "In the kettle." For years I thought he sang a song about a bunch of people living in a tea pot.
When I was younger I always thought that Warren Zevon's song Werewolves of London was Where was the thunder.
I used to live in the Southern states and there was a soda named 'Mello Yello', when I heard Donovan's song "Mellow Yellow," I thought he was singing "They call me Mello Yello" and I stopped drinking Mello Yello forever.
Until I was about ten I had always sang the song "Waterfalls" by TLC as, "Go go Jason Waterfalls..." I always wondered who he was.
I also believed for a long time that the lyrics in the song "Hot in Here" by Nelly, "Dancin' in front of the mirror while you're on the phone sayin', 'girl, I think my butt's gettin big!'" was "'Girl, I think my butt can bend!'"
I'll never live those down.
My younger sister always sung the "I got my first real six-string"-part from Brian Adams' "Summer Of 69" wrong. Instead, she sung "I got my first real sex dream"
