    'Sex Bomb' by Tom Jones. My friend (I swear!) thought it was
    'Snack box, Snack box, you're my snack box':D
    I'm always mishearing lyrics too but none spring to mind. Great thread OP

    oh i love this... hmmmm let me think
    i remember hearing on the radio that someone thought that in the song 'crystal ball' by keane, that he was actually singing 'oh chris de burgh, chris de burgh'..... just go and listen to it, you have to hand it to him whoever it was.. it really sounds like it....

    someone i know thought that celine dions 'my heart will go on' was my 'hotdog is on'

    another was cornershop - brinmful of asha, mistakenly heard as 'brian fried a rasha'...

    my own personal ones....

    the kooks... 'shine on'.... 'stacey grins' instead of safety pins...

    and this song still baffles me... think its tori amos, or kate bush, cant remember... really good song... but it sounds like she's saying 'im hardly bringing you toast tonight'.

    cant think of any more!

    I posted this a while back, but I went for years thinking these lyrics from Stone Roses "Mersey Paradise"

    You see it in the sea / river cools where I belong / In my mersey paradise

    were

    You see it in the sea / Liverpool's where I belong / In my mersey paradise

    which I think are better than the real lyrics!!! ;)

    @ jos28
    Still don't know the correct lyrics to this but I always sang along to the Stranglers;
    Golden Brown, textured like sun,
    lay me down with my machine gun !

    Funniest thing I've seen in ages!
    ______________________________________

    One of the worst mixups I've had was By The Way by the chillis when he does that part in the middle (still dont know what it is but i know im wrong).

    "oooh ahh blah blah blah" whatever it is I though it was "oooh aahh ceist le mo múinteoir"

    I always wondered why he was:

    1: speaking (bad) irish

    2: wanted to ask my teacher a question :pac:

    Great thread!

    I was just singing along to This Modern Love by Bloc Party and when it came to the line 'you told me you wanted to eat up my sadness' I realised I was singing 'you told me you wanted to eat up my sandwich'

    Otherside by Red Hot Chili Peppers.

    I originally thought it was;

    "I don't believe its been, slaggin' my brother. Its all I ever"

    In reality it is;

    "I don't believe its bad, slid my throat is all I ever".

    The Script song Science And Faith

    "You won't find faith or hope down a tennis court"

    It's really:

    "You won't find faith or hope down a telescope"

    Michael Jackson's Beat It

    For some reason when I was younger I thought he was singing "It doesn't matter who's for what right" ...which makes no sense but anyway

    Abba - Dancing Queen

    This one wasn't me. My friend honestly thought it was "See that girl, watch her scream, kickin the dancing queen" :D

    When I was younger, in the Eiffel 64 song, I'm blue, I thought the chorus was "I'm blue if I was green I would die". Made perfect sense to me at the time =D

    ''Paved paradise, and put up a parking lot''...

    "a measure which actually would have alleviated traffic congestion on the outskirts of paradise, something which Joni singularly fails to point out, perhaps because it doesn't quite fit in with her blinkered view of the world. Nevertheless, nice song"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,986 ✭✭✭✭mikemac


    Boom boom boom
    Castlebar is in Mayo, heyo
    I say boom boom boom
    Castlebar is in Mayo, wayo

    There was an eighties song called Everybody Have Fun Tonight which contained the lines "everybody have fun tonight, everybody wang chung tonight". I thought he was singing "everybody **** John tonight".

    Pussycat dolls- when i grow up "i wanna have boobies" instead of "I wanna have groupies" and in the Saturdays song Issues thought they said "Don't know if I should stab you or kiss you" instead of "slap you" in fact I think there was so much confusion they actually had to change it altogether for radio.

    "I got my head shaved, by a jumbo jet." I always heard it as, "I got my head shaved, by a chamboche."

    Don't ask me what a chamboche is!

    I can feel the earth begin to move,
    I hang my needle on the groove,
    Inspiral Poo another day,
    I hear my song begin to say

    I thought it was some form of dig at Inspiral Carpets :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,610 ✭✭✭yaboya1


    Two that I can think of:

    Some Might Say - Oasis

    Some might say the sun shines from East London........

    Sex Bomb - Tom Jones

    Love struck a hole in your tights......
