To have only realised after THIRTY FIVE years that George Michael wasn't planning on a golden solo?!

[WeBuiltCisCityOnSexistRoles]

Yes, I may as well share this with MN as it cheered DH up so much this morning...

I have only just realised (embarrassingly whilst singing this in earshot of DH ) that in Wake me you before you go go, George Michael wasn't actually singing "I'm not planning on a golden solo" and instead he just didn't want to be going solo

(disclaimer: I was young when this song came out! I assumed a golden solo he meant he didn't want to be in the spotlight - having written that down I realise how fucking stupid it sounds )

Also, he wasn't singing Cherrybug in this song either. Well who knew? (According to DH - everyone)

I'm dying a little inside here.

OMG the time warp??! I thought it was “bend for knees” too.

DD used to love singing at the top of her voice to one of her favourite songs: Cars Mustard!

"Who you gonna call?
Cars Mustard!"

(Ghostbusters...)

Your the one in a bow
You are the one in a bow
Ooh ooh ooh - honey

You're mine, you're not your own - always thought that was a bit of an abusive sounding like I'm Addicted to Love. It's actually your mind is not your own

"Only you can set me free, cause I'm guilty … guilty as a cocoa bean"

My username was a revelation for a poster the other day....

I swear that in Yxng Bane's song need time he sings "I just needed time, time and pastry chef.

Listen here - even with the lyrics visible, it's still about a pastry chef - hopefully linked at exactly the right spot:

I was surprised to learn that bananarama weren’t “guilty as a cocoa bean” in their 1987 hit “love in the first degree!

Pop singers should enunciate more clearly!!

@Drinkciderfromalemon ?

@NoArmaniNoPunani my DH sings I'm only bringing toast tonight rather than Honey bring it close to my lips in that song

Loving would be easy if your colours were like my dreams
Red, gold, and green, red, gold, and green

Shut up! I honestly thought it was "they're golden dreams, they're golden dreeeeeams".

I'm still convinced that the lyrics for We Are Family are let's staple the vicar and we're giving love in a femidom. I don't know why anyone would want to injure a man of the cloth, or even what a femidom is, but I'm still signing it

The only one I can think of right now, 'Funk Soul Brother' - a friend thought it was 'Vauxhall Brother'. Fat Boy Slim in a Vauxhall - classic

A vision of love wearing foxy gloves and singing hearts and flowers

arya it's from a song by Feeder where the line is often misheard as "drink cider from eleven".

Thank you @Allmyarseandpeggymartin - laughing away at this and singing it to myself.

Only you can set me freee cos I'm guilty guilty guilty as a cocoa bean!

I used to think that Desmond Dekker was complaining that, "my ears are alight" (The Israelites)

I have only just discovered that about the Time Warp today when you reading your post itsgoingtibiaK

And that is despite going to see Rocky Horror at the theatre a number of times!

Also, since when was Boy George singing ‘red gold and green’?! I have only learned this from this thread too. I also thought it was ‘they’re golden dreams, they’re golden dreeeaaams’

Drinkciderfromalemon I always assumed I'd misheard that lyric because it didn't make sense but when I eventually looked it up I was actually singing the right words all along - it is that it just doesn't make sense. Why would you want to drink cider from a lemon?

AryaStarkWolf it's from Buck Rogers by Feeder.

Someone I know thought a lyric was 'my lover's got no money, he's got his stromboli'. She thought a stromboli was a musical instrument and that the lover was a busker.

Oh, and that the opening line of Woolly Bully was, "Got a cold haddock..."

Ha my sister thought "Life in the Fast Lane" was "Pass me the vaseline" ?!?!?

A 'golden solo' sounds like a euphemism for a very posh wank...

That's what I though Op meant until I saw the disclaimer!

Yes to giving love in a femidom! What's it supposed to be anyway?

@zemblanity you just blew my mind
