"Hold my closer, Tony Danza."

"Wrapped up like a douche" instead of "revved up like a deuce" (Blinded by the Light) my longest running misheard lyric. Didn't get that song for so many years.

Ah, yes, that's another "classic". The worst part is I still think of "wrapped up like a douche" when I hear that song.

"For those about to rock... here's Saint Nugent!"

My wife told me this one.

When I used to listen to "Hot N' Cold" by Katy Perry, I used to think that she was saying "you pee a mess, like a bitch I would know".

But apparently it was PMS. Now I wish I didn't know that.

Billy Squier - My Kind of Lover. My dad thought it was 'My Candelabra'.

Alanis Morrisette's Are you Still Mad. The like Is "are you still mad I gave you ultimatums" sounds like "are you still mad I gave you old tomatoes"

In Sweet Home Alabama -- "When I'm gay it does not bother me. Does your conscience bother you?"

"Hit the B Square" took me a while to figure out- I remember thinking it was probably a not-as-fun version of Four Square. My favorite is courtesy of an old friend: A warm weekend day, our late teens, rural Wisconsin roads, on a joyride that made me feel I was experiencing the epitome of Dean Moriarty's laughably selfishness at the focus in going up from it all, all he could grab, and knowing that his- and only his- rush back down with whatever he used to get up there was worthy of the landing he was gonna claim as his next forgotten triumph, cos, fuck it- he's on top right now, riding everything else down for sake of the glory in the explicit rush while the pieces take the blunt idea and tepid elasticity some Scotsmen call frozen sheep shit like he was counting on you to stick well enough to not bring him down complaining about the impact, and so he knew you'd be a good return on his toting your impeachable limp grasp of idealseeking due to idealseeping-- hence your inability to be weaned from your disgusting hesitation to vanquish your wonder and laugh--laugh like some needs-to-be-fabled child would laugh- with her own fear facing a buzzsaw that was lacking discernment- and fall on enough of her sword to smite only the necessary infrastructure for standing firm ground, yet doubly exacting by leaving enough of your sentience to marinade in your pathetic new-found memory, and taste that for as long as it didn't even really fucking matter anymore-- for Dino had the truth-- or at least that feeling of having it, that's all that mattered in the end... just those Dane County Hwys, loud music from good speakers- worthy of a memory only because of Christopher's emphatic: "I wish that I was Jessie's Girl!" TL/you didn't miss anything.

This is legendary in it's awfulness. To spare you the indignity of actually listening to something on par with ICP, it's an underground rapper called Chuggo who put out a track called "C'mon Fuckin' Guy" which sounds EXACTLY like "Come on Fuck A Guy" instead. It's almost impossible to find the track online under it's original name.

there is a bit in hopipolla by sigur ros that always makes me forget that its in whatever made up language they are singing in, and it sounds like "and if i blow myself"

In Toto's Africa I thought for a long time he said, "There's nothing that a hundred men on Mars could ever do" instead of "a hundred men or more could ever do".

In a PJ Harvey song called Teclo, I thought she was saying "just let me ride on his face for awhile", but it's grace instead of face.

With Destiny's Child's song Jumpin' Jumpin' instead of "club is full of ballers and they pockets full grown" I thought they were saying "and they cock is full grown". For a long time I didn't understand how that was allowed on the radio or how a bunch of ballers could have 1 cock. Oh well.

I read someone heard "She moves in mysterious ways" (U2) as "shamu, the mysterious whale"
