When I was a kid, my mum told me the line 'all the good sh 1t's gone' from Someday I'll Be Saturday Night by Bon Jovi was actually 'all the good ships have gone'. I thought it was a real saying until I was adult.

Occasionally, I'll be quirky.
"I'll be quirky"? Albuquerque!
I'll be right back!

Albert quirky?

I always used to think that Wham used to sing ‘you can take me to Halifax’ in I don’t want your freedom.

I always thought General Levy said "Jungle is Massive". How embarrassing for me.

I also thought Kurt Cobain stated he was a paedo in Smells Like Teen Spirit, turns out it was "my libido".

And I thought Bjork was saying "yeah hon*, yeah hon, I'm just saying" but she was saying "eg og hann, eg og hann vio segjum" in Hit. What a fool I was.


(Can't use a "u" in this word )

Also, Sean Paul says "Chanderpaul" not "Sean D. Paul" in every song, and his middle name isn't Douglas as I assumed.

'Don't stand so colostomy' - Police

'And I miss you Dennis Bradley' - Where do Broken Hearts go - Whitney

'Don't let my son go down on me' - Elton John

Kevin Lyttle - Turn Me On

"Handy Andy, kiss and squeeze me, Handy Andy, kiss and caress me"

I always wondered who Mike Prayzee was in Natalie Cole's 'Miss You Like Crazy'

My mum says when I was a kid, i'd sing:

Every time you go away
You take a piece of meat with you

to the Paul Young song.

For years I thought a line in the ABBA super trouper track was. “When I called you last night from Tesco”

‘Can you hear me Colin, it’s Lorraine?’

Fleetwood Mac - Everywhere

Tonight the super trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
Smiling, having fun
Cleanup in aisle number one

"And Iran, Iran's so far away"

Fairytale of New York.

I've spent many a Xmas build up down the pub drunkenly singing came in at 10 to 1 only to discover (due to Xmas day karaoke) that it's came in 18 to 1.

No way I'll remember that.

Peter Kays got a few?

One for me was the kooks song naive.

I know she knows that I'm not fond of asking
True or false, it may be
Well, she's still out to get me

Always heard it as i know she knows that i'm not fond of icecream.

As a kid, I thought "Jitterbug" at the start of Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go was actually "Cheeseburg".

Cheesybugs are a Kent word for Woodlouse.

A few years later i figured out it was ''dance, said he....

In the below song. I always think it is H34 instead of H24

"J'la passe, la détaille, la pé-cou, la vi-sser, des regrets devant ton bébé
J'sors de chez toi, j'reprends ta voiture mal garée puis j'retire ton PV
J'recherche un billet, des affaires, des plans dans la planque, un peu trop peiné
J'fais un bisou à mes cafards dans la cave du six, les pectoraux gainés
Les BACqueux té-ma parce que les ients-cli ne tomberont jamais sur messagerie
Eh, poto, démarre dans la jungle, j'y suis H24, j'y fais des singeries
La rue, j'la dévale à toute allure avec du Gucci comme Mitch
J'me promène dans les beaux quartiers avec le seum qui fait peur aux riches"

It's the same old TEAM since 1916....

Same here. Only discovered it recently.

Misheard lyrics? How about miswritten music? For example the tune of Mary had a little lamb goes like this:

Dee deedee dee deedeedee deedeedee deedeedee


But some people write it in a different key of:

Doo doodoo doo doodoodoo doodoodoo doodoodoo


Example:
