I know that lily with you baby was sometimes hard...

Just watched Sinead O Connor on YouTube. For 20 years I thought after she sang about all the flowers planted in the back yard died when they went away she referred to a lily. She actually said I know that LIVING with you baby was sometimes hard. I stand corrected!

@Sidge

Sister Sledge - We Are Family.

To me “we’re giving love in a family dose” sounds more like “we’re giving love in a Femidom” (for those of you old enough to remember the female condom...)

That's what I always sing as well Grin

My partner thought "Say you'll see me again" from Taylor Swifts "Wildest Dreams" was "Don't forget to feed the afghans" Confused

Eye of the tiger - and the last known survivor dunks his bread in the night. Apparently that’s not the lyric but it’s mine and I’m sticking with it

I always thought it was this too!
MrsGulDukat · 15/11/2020 10:51

Pharrell song with Katy Perry. "Dont be afraid to catch feels." I though it was fish!

New David Guetta and Sia song. "This too shall pass." I thought she was singing, "This too shabazz." Song properly Sia!!

DartmoorChef · 15/11/2020 10:55

I can barely understand anything that Sia sings. She's a terrible singer.

MrsGulDukat · 15/11/2020 11:00

I cant understand Sia either most of the time. It's like she's keeping her closed as she singing so the words dont come out right.

6demandingchildren · 15/11/2020 11:05

I'm meant weird in the way that we are used to Sinead singing it and his "real" version is so different except the words of course.

@LadyMSM

Easily done OP!!

MARVIN GAYE sexual healing...the line 'I cant wait for you to operate...'
For years I heard 'I cant wait for you to ovulate..' made sense to me. He wanted to impregnante her

It isn't ovulate??????? ShockShockShock
LongPauseNoAnswer · 15/11/2020 11:22

Yes I also thought Katy was encouraging fearless fishing Grin

Teacup34 · 15/11/2020 11:26

Dh version of eye of the tiger " in the darkest night rising like a spider "

Teacup34 · 15/11/2020 11:28

Haha I also thought Katie Perry was singing about fish.

MrsGrindah · 15/11/2020 11:30

@MajorMujer Well I’m ALWAYS going to sing that now!

HotPatootiebootie · 15/11/2020 11:47

Karma Chameleon. I always thought it was "come on chameleon" and he was singing about a pet chameleon that kept escaping. He was trying to tempt him back into his cage.

Karma, karma, karma, karma, karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go

Come on , come on, come on, come on, come on chameleon... you come and go.... you come and gooo oh oh oh!

Catlover77 · 15/11/2020 11:48

I hear Shakira singing ‘hit the dumpster’

RickOShay · 15/11/2020 11:53

@TwentyViginti
I vaguely thought it was something to do with shagging in cars Grin
Of course

Catlover77 · 15/11/2020 11:55

Jason Derulo - I got the shits on the floor! No idea what he really says as I cannot unhear shits on the floor

iklboogeymum · 15/11/2020 12:09

Also Sister Sledge 'We Are Family'

'Just let me staple the vicar'

Bee Gees 'How Deep Is Your Love'

Guardsman18 · 15/11/2020 12:10

I'm with you on that one @Catlover77! I don't know what it is either.

Anyone know?

Ritasueandbobtoo9 · 15/11/2020 12:17

Here comes the hot stepper!

I’m a lyrical cancer not gangsta!

@BillyGoatsChuff I’m glad it’s not just me! I can’t hear an s in there at all 😆

@Catlover77 I think it’s supposed to be sheets (as it’s hot) but I agree all I can hear is shits.

Another one I always mishear is Taylor Swift’s Blank Space - instead of “long list of ex lovers” I hear “long Starbucks others” which makes no sense at all...

BalloonSlayer · 15/11/2020 13:40

@ILoveAllRainbowsx I think you'll find it's "I had my first weird sex dream." Wink You know, like those ones when you are suddenly shagging Boris Johnson and you wake up absolutely appalled.

A friend of mine was convinced Venus went

‘AH! My penis! It’s on fire from pure desire’
