I have to admit to having sung "Cilla Black" a few times...admittedly I was 8 but still!

In fact, way back when were used to get the RVM fanclub newsletter I remember there being a piece on mis-heard lyrics so you're not alone!

I foresee this thread turning into a general misheard lyrics thread.

Just incase it does how about a couple that always made the child version of me giggle..

See that girl, watch her scream, kicking the dancing queen

LOL well a bit off topic but this was on Dutch tv a few years ago. I'm sure there is a full clip somewhere but you get the idea (only the opening is in Dutch)

(Referring to the fact that the Manfred Mann version was the only one to make to number 1)


Lots more misheard lyrics here:

That's hilarious! Those guys did a bunch of them, including Total Eclipse, but this one is my favorite:

I heard it originally, 20 odd years ago now, as 'a Cilla Black fan on bike', which as you can imagine, was a startling surprise given the otherwise awesomeness of the song. Luckily this didn't last long ...

If you want a real laugh about misheard lyrics you need to look on youtube for a fella called Buffalax, Think his current name there is something like BuffalaxFanboy but search on buffalax.

He does nothing but subtitle videos both English language & foreign with what the words sound like, One of his videos was nicknamed "Benny Lava" & became so popular that the star in it said that even in his native India he was better known for that nickname than the films he had been in.

There's a karaoke version of A Kiss Is A Terrible Thing To Waste that has the lyric "You get the paper in later if you don't get it when it's going for free"
