[/QUOTE] thing is I first got it mentioned on Bruno Brookes radio1 show 20 years earlier lol

"I've paid my juice" in the Robbie Williams WATC. Wait a second, I think everybody heard that too.

Thing is,  when you think it says Mike Reid, in fact that's what you hear. Lol.  Strange!!!!!!

Laughing out loud at some of these post, really good ones.

I used to think One Vision said Fried Chicken. How daft I was. It's the last lyric.

"[i]Pillow biters coming home,bloody righteous and mentally slow" from Strange Frontier.[/i]

One old chesnut is "Is this the real life, is this just Battersea?"

I think I once thought the lyric from Crazy Little Thing was "it shakes all over like a jelly bean" which was probably just my stomach talking.
Dont Stop Me Now - "Im a station-ship ready to reload...." thats probably just down to being too young and innocent to get up to speed with the correct line, haha!

There were countless other lyrics I misheard in my youth but sadly having learnt the correct ones I've forgotten the amusing gibberish!

Still, none of us appear to be as bad as the charming German fellow during Now Im Here on the bootleg from Berlin 1978- just before the song kicks off again towards the end after "Down in the city just you and me" (check it out at about 3.41) some nutcase yells his personal interpretation of that line, which is, lets be honest, just hilarious gibberish - cracks me up something rotten everytime!
I dont mean to take the mick out of someone for whom English is not a first language, but it really tickles me, haha! Funny guy!

just been listening to Action This Day and an old misheard lyric from when God was a boy came flooding back to me.you got to remember that when i first heard this it was 1982 on a crackly 33rpm LP
[thats my excuse and im sticking to it]

"bow man jani living in a rats face"

GOFLB

Heard it in on the radio going from Glasgow to Edinburgh very shortly after I just got into Queen.

"ooooh lava boy"

I always think DON'T STOP ME NOW have this line in it;

Don't stop me now, I'm having such a good time..
I'M HAVING A BOY!
Don't stop me now...

it makes a kind of sense so.. why not? lol :D

One of my favourite topics. There used to be a website collecting misheard lyrics but it's long gone. I like two categories the most:

- when it really sounds like it
for example the famous "anti-Russian headnogg" and "he used to be a man with his dick in his hand" (Headlong) or the widespread "I'm here in secret harmonies" (AKOM)
More examples:

Now didn't you feel surprised to find the captions didn't fit  (..the cap just didn't fit) "Ogre Battle")

Now Mary's in an institution (marriage is an institution "Good Company")

No model man can win this day (..mortal man  "AKOM")

Your face feels like mine  (...fills my mind "Breakthru")

Horny (headlong backwards at the end of the song)


- or when people cannot make any sense of the unusual words they hear and think up something similar - closing the gap from their own vocabulary.

examples:

Well I loved a million women and a Belly Dancer Caze ( .. in a belladonic haze "Keep Yourself Alive")

She keeps her mower and shovel in a pretty cabinet (Moet et Chandon "Killer Queen")

Middle Man from China, conjugation minor ( met a man from China, went down to Geisha Minah "Killer Queen")

I challenge the mighty Titan and his stupid horse (... and his troubadours "Seven Seas Of Rhye")

Caught a moose, caught a moose  (Scaramouche, Scaramouche "BoRhap")

Let the Addams Family cover it all (Let the anaesthetic cover it all "Hammer To Fall")
