It's funny to hear that it's not always just the listener that messes up lyrics to a song. Reba McEntire has a song "the last one to know" with the lyrics written as "Why is the last one to know the first one to cry, the first one to let go." When Reba originally recorded the song, she recorded it as "The Wife Is The Last One To Know". She thought it was an error on the lyric sheet, but her producer sent her back to the studio to re-record that portion of the song with the correct lyrics that the writer had written.
*coughs* :lol: I won't tell you what I misheard on the This Ain't a Scene, It's an Arms Race song. Far too rude. :lol:
I think I missheard the same thing you did Tinkerbell[/i] #..This Ain't A Scene It's A God Damn Arse Face...#
An Alan Jackson song (can't find the name... d'oh!) Misheard I'm in love with your bacon and I don't even know your name Real lyric I'm in love with you baby, and I don't even know your name
One of my favorite 80's songs is You Spin Me Round by Dead or Alive (not sure why, it sort of makes me laugh, and it's incredibly catchy). The actual lyric is: "I want some, want some" I heard: "I want someone's son"
FOB- This aint a scene, it's an arms race Correct lyrics: I'm a leading man Misheard lyrics: I believe in love FOB-I'm like a lawyer with the way I'm always trying to get you off Correct lyrics: Me and you setting in a honeymoon Misheard lyrics: me and you sharing in a Hollywood LOL System of a Down - Lonely Day Correct lyrics: Such a lonely day, should be banned Misheard lyrics: Such a lonely day, should be bend I've got TONS more, I'll post'em later
I heard this song yesterday and it reminded me... The first time I heard I'm Not Okay (I Promise) by My Chemical Romance, I thought it was 'I'm a nerd, okay?' instead of 'I'm not okay' I still sing my version
When I first heard "breathless" by The Corrs I heard this: Misheard: Go on, go on, leave me breakfast. Actual: Go on, go on, leave me breahtless. It already made me wonder why the song was called breathless and not breakfast lol
:lol: Okay I think I just peed a little. I think I've tried to learn 'Achy-breaky Heart' one too many times and came up with: Actual lyrics "But don't tell my heart, my achy breaky heart I just don't think it'd understand And if you tell my heart, my achy breaky heart He might blow up and kill this man." I heard: "And if you tell my heart, my achy breaky heart He might grow up with a man."
For anyone who has seen either Napoleon Dynamite or Center Stage, my friend used to mess up the song Canned Heat by Jamiroquai... The real lyric is: Got canned heat in my heels tonight She kept singing: Got canned heat in my ears tonight She did that for the longest time, and I finally had to correct her one day.
Yes, I had the same! You don't really hear a difference between can and can't when she sings it. :lol: Oh well, can't indeed doesn't make much sense when seen in context with the rest of the song, so...
OMG! :lol: I remember at this The Corrs website they had changed the whole song into "Leave me Breakfast". It was hilarious, I should look it up again.
