Misheard Lyrics

[DarrenTR1970]

I can't believe I didn't know this.
Maybe I'm Amazed by Paul McCartney.
The line is, "You pulled me out in time".
I've always heard, "You pulled me out of time".

I really need to clean my ears, I think. I have always heard a line from Christopher Cross's "Never Be the Same" as "Parlez-vous love?" instead of the actual line, which is: I'll Live Alone. I think it's his inflection maybe. Yeah, that's it.

 

[Candleicious Ghost]

Hooked On A Feeling almost always trips me up.

The line I hear

"Got a pot from you girl but I don't need a cure"

The actual line is

"Got a bug from you girl but I don't need a cure"

I know the lyrics but still occasionally get tripped up with the misquoted line.

 

[Candleicious Ghost]

The song Shallows from a star is born.

Every time I have previously heard this song it sounded like "we're far from the shadows now"

The correct line is

"we're far from the shallows now"

I just misheard "I can't stand the rain against my window", as "I can't stand Lorraine, against my window"

I can see clearly now Lorraine is gone!

Same thing with Creedence Clearwater Revival. "I wanna know, have you ever seen Lorraine?"

 

[Candleicious Ghost]

I just misheard "I can't stand the rain against my window", as "I can't stand Lorraine, against my window"

Same thing with Creedence Clearwater Revival. "I wanna know, have you ever seen Lorraine?"

OMG me too........ Poor Lorraine she gets around

 

[Ovation]

My wife, for the longest time, thought the Hall and Oates song lyric “your kiss is on my list” was “on my lips” (to be fair, it’s not an unreasonable perception).

Glad I'm not the only one.
