Quite a few for me but I just realised that in Tiny Dancer by Elton John, Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band and not "sings just for the band". 

 

Bit of a shit one and I'm sure you cats have much better but there you go. 20 odd years I've sung the wrong line.

Love In The First Degree by Bananarama. 

 

Spent about twenty years thinking “cause I’m guilty, guilty as a girl can be“ was “cause I’m guilty, guilty as a drunken bee”.

 

 

 

Just googled “drunken bee” and it would seem I wasn’t the only sad cunt who did this.

It's an easy mistake to make, with the bees known for their drinking and drink flying. 

"Honeybees are avid drinkers, and this could make them ideal for research into drugs to treat alcoholism, say researchers."

One most Irish people will get. It's from my mother who's from Dublin....

 

There was a dance song in the 90s called "We like to party! (The vengabus)" by the Vengaboys, and the line in the song goes "The Venga bus is comin and everybody's jumpin" but my mother always sang "The Finglas bus is comin and everybody's jumpin".

 

It was quite funny for us to hear and we never corrected her for years.

What's alarming is that your mother was singing it for years!

Spent most of my life thinking "You give love a bad name" by Bon Jovi was "you can't love a band name."

 

I thought it was about Jon Bon Jovi sulking because girls only loved him because he was a rock star and he was bored of groupies.

It made sense aswell because obviously his band was named after him.

I genuinely thought for a while it said ‘Hold me closer Tony Danzer’

 

I smoked a lot of weed around that time and it can be the only explanation.

Well today I've just realised I've been singing Seal's "Kiss from a Rose" wrong.

 

Instead of "I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey "

I've been singing

"I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grave"

For years.

 

I'm fuckin shite.

 

I always expect to hear "Jesus loves marijuana and drinking human blood" whenever that song is on.

Rock Me Amadeus... 

 

I never realised the song was sung entirely in German. I hear the word 'cunt' sung in one of the lyrics but it's actually War wohl jedermann bekannt

The entire lyrics are on Amadeus are shockingly bad... 

 

Lyrics

Rock me, rock me, rock me, rock me
Rock me, rock me, rock me, rock me

Rock Me Amadeus
Rock me, Amadeus

Do it, do it
Do it, do it
Rock me all the time to the top
Rock me all the time to the top
He was a punk
Er war ein Punker

And he lived in the big city
Und er lebte in der großen Stadt

It was in Vienna, it was Vienna
Es war in Wien, war Vienna

Where he did everything
Wo er alles tat

He was in debt because he drank
Er hatte Schulden, denn er trank

But all women loved him
Doch ihn liebten alle Frauen

And everyone called
Und jede rief

"Come and rock me Amadeus"
„Come and rock me Amadeus“
He was a superstar
Er war Superstar

It was popular
Er war populär

He was so exalted
Er war so exaltiert

Because he had flair
Because er hatte Flair

He was a virtuoso
Er war ein Virtuose

Was a rock idol
War 'n Rockidol

And everything called
Und alles rief

"Come and rock me Amadeus"
„Come and rock me Amadeus“
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus, Amadeus, oh, oh, oh Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, oh, oh, oh Amadeus

Come and rock me, Amadeus
Come and rock me, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus, Amadeus, oh, oh, oh Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, oh, oh, oh Amadeus
Hey
Ey

It was around 1780
Es war um 1780

And it was in Vienna
Und es war in Wien

No plastic money anymore
No plastic money anymore

The banks against him
Die Banken gegen ihn

Where the debt came from
Woher die Schulden kamen

Everyone was familiar
War wohl jedermann bekannt

He was a man of women
Er war ein Mann der Frauen

Women loved his punk
Frauen liebten seinen Punk
He was a superstar
Er war Superstar

It was so popular
Er war so populär

He was too exalted
Er war zu exaltiert

That was exactly his flair
Genau das war sein Flair

He was a virtuoso
Er war ein Virtuose

Was a rock idol
War 'n Rockidol

And everything is calling today
Und alles ruft noch heute

"Come and rock me Amadeus"
„Come and rock me Amadeus“
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus, Amadeus, oh, oh, oh Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, oh, oh, oh Amadeus

Come and rock me, Amadeus
Come and rock me, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus, Amadeus, oh, oh, oh Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, oh, oh, oh Amadeus

Come and rock me, Amadeus
Come and rock me, Amadeus
Now, come and rock me, Amadeus
Now, come and rock me, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus, Amadeus, oh, oh, oh Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, oh, oh, oh Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus, Amadeus, oh, oh, oh Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus, oh, oh, oh Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus

Amadeus, Amadeus
Amadeus, Amadeus

Come on, rock me
Come on, rock me

Come and rock me to the top
Come and rock me to the top

Amadeus
Amadeus

Ama-, Ama-, Amadeus
Ama-, Ama-, Amadeus

Now come and, now come and rock me, Amadeus
Now come and, now come and rock me, Amadeus

Amadeus
Amadeus
