Misheard song lyrics

[PhilM]

For years my sister in law thought Marvin Gaye was singing about central heating rather than sexual healing

I understand her confusion, as both can get you hot and sweaty.

 

[Blue 1]

My wife was singing Neil Young's "Harvest Moon" this morning, only it became "Purple Moon".

I mean, it's the 'kin title of the song!

 

[Rita_Poon]

On a related note, for far longer than I'm proud of, I genuinely thought imbeciles were some kind of particularly stupid seal, that lived in the Imber, which was some estuary off Newfoundland or some such.

Always swimming into boats, eating fishing nets, bloody Imber Seals.

u plankton!

When I was younger I could never figure out what a mullerkin tyre was

When I was younger I could never figure out what a mullerkin tyre was

Not a song lyric at all but was forced to go to Catholic mass as a kid.(aside - I was pretty good at Religious studies and actually got an O level in it) but for years and years I never knew who Lord Heros* was - they all said it three times whilst moving hand to heart. Might have started my interest in history trying to figure out wh he was.



*For those not of that persuasion - it was 'Lord Hear Us'

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Also - my son now in his mid 20's - when he was about 6 asked me to put on his favorite Maroon 5 song in the car.
"Dad, play the queen of 13 sheep"
took a while for me then, too....
