Can’t believe these lyrics I heard on Radio 1

[MangetoutsaysGetOutMan]

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.

'But it got me thinking of when music didn't mention any body parts.
I got to the 18th century, but only because there was no words to the music.'
Henry Purcell? (1659-1695)

Ohhhhh. I thought OP meant it rhymed with "a planet", not the name of an actual planet. I was trying to work out if Thanet or Canet was the new word for twat 😂

Yeah I got stuck on Planet Thanet for a while

All in your dirty mind, OP!

HOWLIN' 😂😂😂

To be fair, she could have avoided all confusion by just typing the word ‘anus’!

Now in my defence, I am hearing impaired.
Sometimes you just fill in your best guess based on the sounds and pattern that you did get.

Fifth Harmony, “Worth It”.

I swear to god this is what I heard first time:
”Yeah baby I’m worth it”
”Yeah baby I’m a whitebait”

I realised that was fishy 😌 and googled. I think I would have googled Planet Anus before taking to the internet with my horror 🤣

Oh Lordy, I also thought she was rhyming Planet and Anus. I’m kinda disappointed.

What? Of course you misheard the lyrics. And in a quite hilarious way as well. 😄Just admit your mistake and laugh about it.

🤣🤣🤣

I was definitely one of those who heard "lonely Starbucks lovers" in Blank Space (long list of ex-lovers).

About a hundred years ago I was singing a cheery pop ditty from a band called Herman's Hermits. My mother overheard and said 'what are you singing?'
I confidently sang the chorus to her again - 'She's a muscular boy'.
Mother - 'I think you'll find it's "she's a must to avoid".

The tables were turned decades later when I caught her warbling away to Bohemian Rhapsody, 'spare him his life from his Walls sausages'. (Walls was a company that made sausages, maybe they still do.)

I remember the horrible Rolf Harris doing a cover of this and he Bowdlerised it to when all around were losing theirs.

At the time, this just seemed a natural thing to do for a beloved innocent family entertainer...

My friend says she doesn't remember this, but I'm sure she's just blanked it out. Many years ago she was singing (for some reason) the Elvis hit 'Are You Lonesome Tonight'. When she got to the line 'Do the chairs in your parlour seem empty and bare?', she sang 'The chairs in your parlour, cementy and bare'. She said that perhaps he had taken the real chairs away and she had to get cement ones????

Dunno, blurred lines was played constantly a few years ago without censorship and that included such charming lines as "I'll give you something big enough to tear your ass in two."

WHAT IT’S NOT STARBUCKS LOVERS???

I’m a big butt kisser????

Also see Robbie Williams’ “Rock DJ” with the line “Give no head, no backstage passes”

See also cyndi laupers I drove all night for scatological confusion.

The lyrics are "and crept in your room" but it sounds like "crapped"
Always causes much hilarity if it comes on
The next line is "is that all right?"
We usually come up with some version of
"No its not you bloody psycho i dont want to wake up to some crazy woman shitting in a corner of my bedroom while singing to me."
Or "forget making love to me, go and get some carpet cleaner" or "Why did you drive all night if you needed the toilet so badly, you could have stopped for 5 minutes in the services?" Etc.

Ms Jackson album version was played for weeks before a radio version materialised

The Weeknd - Can't Feel My Face, I heard:

🎵And I know she'll be the death of me
At least we're Bobinogs 🎵

I mean, of course I knew that wasn't the lyric (it's at least we'll both be numb) but just preferred my brain's interpretation.

Stargirl, by McFly.

There’s nothing on earth that could save us, when I fell in love with Uranus.

Makes me laugh every time.

I know right "Head, shoulders, knees and toes" is a shocker of a song.

When my daughter was little she used to sing “i’ve got all the dumplings” instead of “I’ve done all the dumb things”. I think it was a Paul Kelly song. To this day we all sing the dumpling version!.

I always thought that "leper messiah" in Ziggy Stardust was "leopard messiah" and i could visualise a giant leopard dressed in robes.

I love misheard lyrics aren't they called mondegreens or something similar? One of ones I especially like is Best of Burden "I'll Never Leave Your Pizza Burning" and even though I love the song and find it very emotional and beautiful, I do giggle to myself at the alternative culinary declaration of devotion

I thought the same until I saw it written down 😂
