Misheard lyrics

Mister Dean · Mar 17, 2000, 09:32 AM

You're singing a song at the top of your lungs, the words nice and clear... then your friends tell you that you've got the words all wrong! And the stuff you've sung actually sounds better than the original!

What song lyrics have you or your friends mixed up, screwed up, or just plain invented because you didn't know the right words?

Me: (from "Impulsive") Wanna be impulsive, breakfast... (akala ko naman kasi, breakfast, dahil si Carnie, mataba, gutom, you know... "Reckless" pala)

sorry, Great Administrator, I'm going to make you bisto... LOL
Nix: (from "Buses and Trains") So I ran under a bus... (Me: Ouch!) (Actual line: I walked under a bus)

Me: (from "Ray of Light") ...and I feel like a disco ball, and I feel... (great, "just got home" pala. What's worse is that I wasn't the first person to make this mistake!)

What're yours?

DEATHCRAYON · Mar 17, 2000, 01:46 PM

.............THIS A LOT OF PEOPLE GOT WRONG!! EVEN ME!!

......NEW ORDER'S "REGRET"

.........."WAKE UP EVERYDAY I WOULD BE A STAR"

.................YUN PALA "WAKE UP EVERYDAY THAT WOULD BE A START"

king_jesse · Mar 17, 2000, 05:46 PM

tale as old as time, song as old as rhyme
TILL THE END OF PEACE....lol!

bLaCk · Mar 17, 2000, 07:46 PM

...barely even friends.. then somebody bends...

(danced dapat, ryt?)

...every day and anyway, i've been waitin' her to call, and it's got to me as well... when you're losin' what you came for in the first place it gets worth it, believe me i can tell...

(anyway, another day... another rain had to come... it gets rough...daw, ha?! bad trip noh!!!)

Mister Dean · Mar 17, 2000, 07:47 PM

LOL@DC and king_jesse (hey, dude, nice to have you back!)

Another friend was caught singing, "Starvation in the jungle, salvation in your hands..." from Savage Garden's "Animal Song"! LOL Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Ooh! LOL

Yoshi · Mar 17, 2000, 08:31 PM

To add to Mister Dean's "Animal Song" booboos, here's one from my friend:
"I wanna live like cannonballs, careless and free..."

Isa pa. From Westlife's Seasons in the Sun:
"We had joy, we had fun, we had seashells in the sand..."

Galing sa friend ng friend ko. Christina Aguilera's Genie in a Bottle:
"If you wanna be with me, baby there's a price to pay, I'm a genie in the Bible..."

Some lyrics I got from a songhits magazine:
Unpretty by TLC:
"I am such a cool/ I am such a cool/ Everytime I think I'm through/ It's because of you..."
"You can but a hair if you won't run/ Because you know that she said so/ You can buy all the make-up/ The magic in me..."

My personal favorite: Livin La Vida Loca
Shows into superstitions
Wild cats and lving dolls
I feel intimidation
That girl's gonna make me small
Show you to new sensation
You kissed in the candle light
She's got new addition
For every day and night
She makes and takes you close
When you are dancing in the rain
She makes you move her crazy life
'Coz she takes away your pain
Like a ball into your brain

Hold tight inside out
Livin' la vida loca
Who shall pull you down
Livin' la vida loca
Reap so say you do
You can call me de moca
She will weigh you out
Livin' la vida loca...

Welcome to New York City
In a crooked sepulchre
She took my night, she took my money
She must have set me a sleeping pill
She never dreamed she wants you
Makes you want her bring some pain
She wants you that you'll take her
That will never be the same
She shall make you go insane

bunny · Mar 17, 2000, 09:04 PM

Oh My!!! I have an officemate who always has those kind of bloopers! Sobrang Funny....and they are the ff:

"Sex Bond, Sex Bond, You're my Sex Bond" Me: "(my friend's name), Anong Sex Bond?" My Friend: Hindi ba sa James Bond na movie yun?

Eto kwento lang niya, tiba the nursery rhyme "Baa Baa black sheep" goes
"Baa Baa black sheep, have you any wool?"

when she was in pre-school, everytime they would sing baa baa black sheep, she'd go, "Baa Baa black sheep anywhere you go.." LOL!

Yoshi: Yes, she also thought Christina Aguilera's Genie in a Bottle was Genie in a Bible

This one naman was heard on the radio a few years back by a friend of mine...
MAN: Pwede magrequest?
DJ: Sure, what song would you like us to play?
MAN: di ko alam yung title eh...
DJ: sige, sing it na lang
MAN: basta yung last line niya ganito tunog..."i hope you clap your hands" (pertaining to Simply Red's "Stars" wherein the last line of the chorus goes.."I hope you comprehend")

Eterna · Mar 17, 2000, 09:24 PM

nice thread...reminds me of my friends mom,
minsan nandoon kme sa house nila, biglang she burst out with a song na...."AHAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET;AHAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET"....what she really meant to sing pala was "Our House,in the middle of the street."

eto pa...yung greatest love of all
biro mo ba naman sa isang ktv joint, yung isang guy(siguro lasing) papunta na sa lyrics na "they cant take away my dignity" na pa segue na sa "the greatest love of all is easy to achieve...." kinanta ba naman....
"they cant take away my virginity;the greatest love of all is easy to achieve...."

eto pa,medyo twisted ata dila ng kumakanta yung "thats what friends are for" yung line na "in good times and bad times;ill be on your side forever more..." lumabasa na " in good times and BED times; ill be on your side forever more..."

so for all its worth, anything goes nalang,just as my friend says..."if you dont know the lyrics 'fake' it just like the banjo player"

broom · Mar 17, 2000, 09:49 PM

hehe ako ren mahilig mag imbento ng lyrics basta makasabay lang sa song

eto ni-share ng friend ko samin...

song: back at one...
its on the night bowl...(LOL)
(dapat its undeniable)
->; narinig nya sa radio...

song: tubthumping
i get knocked down, but i can only get...(bwahahahaha)
->; galing sa songhits! pamatay lang e noh!

Yoshi · Mar 17, 2000, 11:04 PM

I'm having a great time reading this!

Speaking of radio interviews, here's one I heard four years ago:
Girl: Can I request a song, please?
DJ: Sure! What will it be?
Girl: Waterworld
DJ: Waterworld?
Girl: Yes, the one sung by TLC. Don't go chasing waterworld...

Calypso · Mar 18, 2000, 12:22 AM

One time in HS, my neighbors knocked on our gate and asked if they could borrow a tape with the song "BRENDA." Tanong ko naman, ano yung "Brenda"?? Sabi nila, yung usong sayaw daw, yung, "Brenda booty over here, over here..."

Ang dami pa eh, pero ito yung mga bastos... (IF YOU ARE UNDER 18, DO NOT READ BELOW THIS POINT)

"VULNERABLE" by Roxette:

She's so vulnerable, vagina in my hands, oh so vulnerable... (whoooohooo! di ba "like china in my hands?)

isa pa:

"HEAVEN KNOWS" by Rick Price:

(Bridge) Why I live in despair... coz wide awake or dreaming I know she's never there... And all the time i masturbate I'm shaking inside, why does it hurt me so? (YIKES!! dapat 'and all the time i act so brave...')

hehehe... OK, if you're 17 and below, you can OPEN YOUR EYES NOW

Soleil · Mar 18, 2000, 12:26 AM

bunny: another version would be: "I hope you comb your hair...I hope, I hope you comb your hair..."

sampaguita · Mar 18, 2000, 05:44 AM

From "Mr. Big Stuff"

~Mistah Fistah, who do you think you are? Mistah Fistah!~ lol...

From "Genie In a Bottle"

~I'm a genie in a bottle, baby. C'mon and let me meow~ LOL...

Soleil · Mar 18, 2000, 08:31 AM

For the talent portion of an initiation rite in my org in college, I sang "Bizarre Love Triangle" (originally by New Order and remade by Frente)...

Every time I think of you
I get a shot right through
Into a butter pool

It should have been:
Into a bolt of blue

Gutom ata ako nun! *LOL*

Mister Dean · Mar 18, 2000, 01:41 PM

Calypso, Yoshi, that's pretty funny stuff! LOL

I'm going to go buy a Song hits this afternoon and search for some more murdered songs!

It reminds me of some more:
DJ: What song do you want to request.
Caller: Yung Compact Disc.
DJ: Huh?
Caller: Alam mo, yung (sings) Compact disc, tanananan, tan tan (U Can't Touch This, by Hammer!)

bLaCk · Mar 18, 2000, 05:13 PM

oh mi gosh!! yeah! there was this incident also sa RX... way back 1998 or 96 ata.. grabeh!!! there was this guy...

DJ: Good Evenin' A*m**d!
GUY: Good Evenin, TA! pwedeng magrequest?
DJ: Sure, what can I play for 'ya?
GUY: yung song ng boyz ii men...
DJ: which one?
GUY: uhh.. yung "i'm down, abandon meeehh.."
DJ: (laugh and laugh na parang manok..)uh.. okay...

hay, naku.. what's happening to the music world?

chez-o · Mar 18, 2000, 06:26 PM

maid namin dati:

bababaero, bababaero, bababaero daw ako,
sinong maysabi, putulan ng labi....

BRUTAL!!!!
