Funny misreadings or mishearings

Post by puckishbearscubsfan on Thu May 27, 2010 7:46 pm

I posted an idea on ways they will keep B&B apart and it was misread as Blackhawks rooster instead of roster.

We've all misread or misheard things. What have been some of yours?

or funny typos?

Mine was a few years ago the Bears ran a promo radio ad "Bears Fans Shake the Lake" (Soldier Field is by the lake where the Bears play)

The first few times I heard it I swear they were singing "Bear fans Shave Their Legs"

While many Bears fans do including myself I thought it was an odd thing to build an ad campaign around!

There are all those song lyrics everyone seems to mishear, too...

"'Scuse me while I kiss this guy" (...kiss the sky)

"The chair is not my son" (the kid...)

our local radio station collected all the things people misheard on songs about 2 years ago
most of them were weird for people who actually speak English but there were some funny ones too

like Gianna Nannini - Un´estate italiana (soccer world championship song 1990).....about 40 secs into the song she sings "Die drei scheene Bier" (the three beautiful/nice beers)
I have a link, but it is in German of course.....http://podcast.salue.de/audiofiles/leberwurst/gianna-080814.mp3

another one of those is Sheryl Crow - All I Wanna Do
around 1:40 she sings "He shreds them on the bar" and it sounds a lot like "Der schönste Mann im Bad" (the most handsome man in the bathroom)

one more from those then I'll shut up for a while

Chris Norman - Midnight Lady

at the end of the second verse you can hear "Die Oma fiel ins Klo" (the grandma fell into the toilet) instead of "oh my feelings grow"

I just thought of one I always mishear (not from the radio show)

do you know the song "Dry County"?
if not you have to listen to it because it's one of the best ever

anyway
I keep hearing 'my jeans went up in ashes' instead of dreams around 3:55 minutes into the song (1st video below)

and another vid, just because I love the live performance here....and the red shirt.....yummy
and did I mention the oh so blue eyes?

My friend: "Gary Coleman died"

What I heard: That coma guy died.

I then proceeded to tell my friend that the "Willus kid" died.

There was then an akward pause.
