This state looks down on sodomy
I was a huge blink182 fan back in 99-02. I didn't understand what the prank in that prank call was. It wasn't until much much later that I started going through their albums again that I realized what Mark was actually saying. Looked up the lyrics and my jaw hit the floor. I remember sitting in front of my computer laughing until I was sweating at not only how that's a legit good prank call but I'd been singing it wrong for the better part to two decades.

With Little Miss Can't Be Wrong I used to hear "ain't nobody gonna come when your sound is gone" instead of "when you sound your gong".
Yes, me too for that part too.

I heard this song for the first time, and I kept hearing
My lover’s got no money, he’s got his thrombolyse
Turns out it was "strong beliefs", and not a medical term
Have a listen: https://song.link/t/70681623
At one point in Another One Bites the Dust, Freddie says "Bite the dust, yeah" which for years I could not hear as anything but "I'm adopted". Seemed like a weird way to share that information.

For like a decade+ I thought Umbrella by Rihanna went "under my arms forever"

“I set fire, to Lorraine” by Adele (set fire to the rain).
“Parrot, parrot, parrot eyes” by Coldplay (Paradise)Paradise is the song with the weird elephant music video, right?

In yoga, they have us sit in "sucasana" (also known as criss-cross applesauce) and I always t hear it as the polite form of tu casana, and Namaste also sounds like a Spanish word to me, every time. Tu Namaste tambien!
wrote last edited by [email protected]Yeah, the su/tú (you) form is easy and tricky to learn: su/vuestro(a)/su mercé are polite forms; tú/vos are informal forms.
Our brains trick us with the easy/most used path to identify patterns and meanings.Sukhasana (from Sanskrit) sounds like a mix of su (Spanish) Casana (from Italian/Trukish)
I think you heard from some novela the phrase: ¿(tú) me amas(te) también?
Good to know that I'm not the one that fights with my brain mixing words in 4-5 languages. -

Owner of a lonely horse...
Real lyric: owner of a lonely heart.
I never understood why there'd be a song about a lonely horse.

I'm here to say that I figured out "stomp on the stoop when you hear the funk loop". It took me 30 years.

That Land Down Under song. I still have no idea what the women or men do but I can hear the thunder.

Also, the technical term is 'Mondegreen'
Edit: I'm also reminded of a Colin Hay one man show I went to years ago where he told a story about a bloke that requested the 'song about the goats' at a gig. Turns out it was Overkill - "Goats appear and fade away". He then went on to tell a long story about a sharehouse he lived in in his youth that decided to get a goat to keep the lawn down. Man that was a good show.
