Can’t believe these lyrics I heard on Radio 1

I was listening to Radio 1 with children in the car and I had to turn it off.

Attracted to your status, maybe your a* (sounds like a planet)

Who is this H? I’m surprised the BBC let it through.

Why have the words anal and sex not been typed out in full?

Show quote history

Because they’re rude!!

Thank you for your validation. There are threads on here about the rise in anl sx on girls as a standard part of sx which is why I took it at face value.

Definitely H from Steps, he would sing it in such a cheerful sincere way.

I can almost picture the dance routine.

"Tragedy!! The word is fucking anus! It's a tragedy!!!"

H from Steps, of course. We'd definitely win!

I genuinely think "The Word is Fucking Anus" should be the name of the UK Eurovision song next year. It could be sung by H and he and his backing dancers could all wear tracksuits with asterisks all over them.

I think the OP was really hoping for a thread all about anal sex. What a disappointment it must be to him/her that no one has obliged. 😀

I do love misheard lyrics. A particular favourite is “The ants are my friends” rather than “the answer, my friends” from “Blowin’ in the Wind.”

You couldn’t be more wrong.

Don't your kids know the word anus? If not, why not? It's hardly offensive.

ROFL. "Attracted to your anus" is not something most mothers want their children to think about.

‘don’t be afraid to catch fish!’

I used to think it said that. I mean, I knew that it didn't but that's all I could hear and it made sense 🎣 I never bothered looking for the proper lyrics.

It does make sense to be fair, I could see why he thought that. It was still funny though 😃

My mum has always (tongue in cheekily) joined in with Bananrana singing "Robert De Niros waiting- eating lasagne". Tanya has no place in this house.

I also thought Lizzo "let my hair down, check my nails".

Another couple, I was out on a walk one day in a park and there were a couple of kids with a Bluetooth speaker, would have been around 2017, and Calvin Harris - Feels was playing and the boy kept singing ‘don’t be afraid to catch fish!’ Don’t know if it was deliberate 🤣

Another time I was driving and the radio was on with my dad in the passenger seat and Alexandra Stan - Mr Saxobeat came on, and he said to me after the ‘’make me move like a freak’’ line, ‘’What does it mean move like a ‘’fridge’’? 🤣

AhBiscuits · 17/05/2024 17:38

I preferred him in Steps TBH, he almost never sang about anal sex then.

Wonkypictureframe · 17/05/2024 17:29

Bringing us back to famous anal sex track, Rock DJ.

StarsHideYourFir3s · 17/05/2024 17:17

Rock DJ by Robbie Williams - heard it for the first time, aged 10 ,on Pepsi Chart 2001 - I thought the line "I've got funk, you've got soul" was "I've got fuck" for some reason. I wouldn't sing the word, instead I would go, "I've got MMMM, you've got soul"

She's probably going to hear it as G spot or something with her filthy mind. But it is such a sweet song...

I disagree. If the artist has form for writing perverted lyrics then he will have carefully chosen seemingly harmless lyrics which are in fact homophones so yes he might like her A List but he knows we will mishear it as an*s and that is his point.

Babes, you are REACHING!!

You misheard, end of!

FacingTheWall · 17/05/2024 15:38

MangetoutsaysGetOutMan · 17/05/2024 13:12

Because PP on this thread have said he writes like that.

Show quote history

If he wanted to use the word anus then he would, he wouldn’t hide it in a homophone.

But he doesn't 'like' her A list' it's ' baby you're a list' - meaning she's high class/ extremely beautiful/ very high up in his opinion. The context is entirely wrong for hoping you'd mis hear as a body part!

You should listen to the lyrics of "My G". It's about his little sister who has Downs Syndrome. It's lovely.
