My wife thought Johnny Rivers was singing about a "Secret Asian Man".
Sweet dreams are made of Cheese...And the all time mis-heard lyric...."Sweet Dreams are made of these" by The Eurymics. It is actually "Sweet Dreams are made of THIS," believe it or not!
All I hear when I hear that song is "all we are is oreos".Nirvana "All Apologies"
I always thought he was singing "Choking on the asses of orangutan."
Like, who would choke on ape butt? Does this single ape have multiple butts?
What's even funnier is that I used to hang out with one of the Nirvana band members. I never bothered to ask about this for some reason. LOL
Perfect enunciation - he never dropped a 'g' at the end of an 'ing' word.A lot of these ring true. One singer I never had a problem understanding was Sinatra.
That’s not what ELO says? No joke, I never knew it wasn’t. Any Nirvana song can’t be heard many ways. Someone burned out on Heroin isn’t very clear or exciting.Elton John: "Hold me closer, Tony Danza."
Creedence Clearwater Revival: "There's a bathroom on the right."
Electric Light Orchestra: "Don't bring me down, Bruce."
Beatles: "But if this ever-changing world in which we live in..."
Exactly!!Elton John "Benny and The Jets": She had electric boobs.
Marvelous! Tikka, what part of the UK is he from? Wales?Hi

Misheard Lyrics | Peter Kay: The Tour That Didn't Tour Tour - YouTube
This was new to me - hadn't heard of the band before. Checked it out on YouTube - my old ears heard "Uh uh uh uh ... uh uh uh, (something something) Daddy no more."The song Unwell by Matchbox 20 goes I’m not crazy I’m just a little unwell. I always thought it was I’m not lazy I’m just crazy.
Several other songs too like that one The Breakup Song by Greg Kihn Band that goes they don’t write em like that anymore. I always thought was I didn’t like my daddy anymore.
Yeah I think it was early 80s lol but I still sing it as I didn’t like my daddy anymoreThis was new to me - hadn't heard of the band before. Checked it out on YouTube - my old ears heard "Uh uh uh uh ... uh uh uh, (something something) Daddy no more."
My musical education continues ... I know a lot of obscure '70s stuff, but not too much newer.
