the prince song"it's gonna be a beautiful night" when bonnie screams"one more" i thought she was screaming "white boy!" lol


My friend used to think that the part where Prince says

"No time 4 politics, no, we don't wanna fight
Everybody get up, it's gonna be a beautiful night"


He was saying "Eveybody get up! 1-2-3-4-5!!!" falloff

OutKast's "B.O.B." at the end when the choir is singing "Power Music, Electric Revival"...

I used to think they were saying "Why don't you take it back to revival!" lol

In the Doobie Brothers song 'What a Fool Believes' I thought they were saying 'the white man has the power.' They were actually saying 'the wise man has the power.' eek lol lol



Similiarly,on the 1984 Duran Duran hit "Wild Boys",it sounds like they're really singing...


"White boys always....shine" lol


giggle

My uncle, thought they were singing "Girls on Pills" instead of "Girls on Film"...

My friend's mom thought that "Controversy" was "Count Your Blessings." That was a headscratcher and falloff for awhile.

How Deep Is Your Love by The Bee Gees. They sang "Then you come to me on a summer breeze". As a kid, I used to think they were singing "Then you come to me on a submarine".

and of course,if you don't listen too closely,"More Than A Woman" sounds like they're singing..

"bald-headed woman....bald-headed woman to me" lol


That's Exactly what I used to Hear lol lolI Mean, I knew it wasn't right ( musta had a bad speaker, or something ), but , yeah !! " Bald-headed Woman...Bald Headed woman To Me..."

One of my MOST embarrasing lyrical screw ups was with "Can't Hurry Love" (by the Supremes and later Phil Collins);

"...my momma said...you gator in love...no you just have to wait..."

SWEAR TO GOD that's how I used to sing it!
