[Anker Ignis Fatuus Von K.]

Once they played "Sex on fire" by Kings of Leon on the radio, then my mum turned to me and said: "Why is that guy singing that his socks are on fire?"

Actually "Socks on fire" would make more sense than "Sex on fire".

For years I heard "(hey man) oh Henry, get off the phone" in 'Suffragette City' by Bowie as "(hey man) oh Himmler, get off the phone". I think I actually prefer it that way. God knows what this says about the state of my teenage mind, i'm sure hearing the names of leading Nazis in song isn't normal. Meh. In my defence listen to it, it really does sound like Himmler!

When my sister first heard 'Ride a White Swan' by T Rex she thought is was 'Ride a White Schlong' .

"My anus is the center hole."

The Clash!!

 

[CharlieFairhead]

A horrid James Blunt song.
Summat about 'three Wise Men' having 'a semi by the sea'.....

But it's right, i didn't mishear it at all...haha...jesus indeed.

here's one by my good friend Novak and me:

 

[EPbabe]

Let me see your beauty when the winter sales are gone.

it should be

Let me see your beauty when the witnesses are gone.

Dance Me to the End of Love by Leonard Cohen

(You think I'm a shopaholic????)

 

[MindlessRuffian]

A friend of mine thought the chorus of "Get Off Of My Cloud" by The Rolling Stones was "A-B, Alphabet Clown"

[Franzanna]

In 'Glass' by Gang of Four I heard 'I'm so restless I murdered the cat' instead of 'bored as a cat'

I couldn't work out the first verse of 'Alternative Ulster' by Stiff Little Fingers to begin with.

What I heard:
Seventy-four hours in Belfast,
Wear pants on their toupée,
Of kisses chapped with anger,
But you can walk back to to sea.

instead of
There's nothing for us in Belfast,
The pound's old, that's a pity,
Okay, there's the Trident in Bangor,
But then you walk back to the city.

Sting - Englishman In New York

STING "It takes more than combat gear to make a man.."

MUM "It takes more than 'come back here' Jamaica man.."

oh how we larfed

 

[ForgetMe]

In the song "Pashernate Love" I always hear "That shit ain't love".

And in Roy's Keen, instead of the line where he says "Foot in a bucket" to me it sounds like "Fart in a bucket".

 

[MindlessRuffian]

I thought in Wannabe by the Spice Girls they said, "Making love forever" instead of "Make it last forever"

My friends still make fun of me for that

Sex On Fire

 

[McLovin]

One of the more commonly misheard lyrics from the '70's. Manfred Mann's "Blinded by the Light"

Sounds like: Wrapped up like a douche, another rumor in the night

But it is: Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night

"My anus is the center hole."

My blood runs cold, my memory has just been sold, my anus is a center hole, my anus is a center hole. It fits (pun slightly intended).
