Judy mentioned a song by Manfred Man, Pretty Flamingo in the 'Soppy' thread, and it brought back this memory ......

Oh Pretty Flamingo!!! I never knew the title to the song and up until about 5 years ago always sang the words 'where did the wind go'![]()

ops:
Was only when someone saw me singing along to it when out one night that I found out ..... but not before he had picked himself off the floor laughing and finished telling the rest of the pub :roll: :roll: :roll:
:oops:
Another time I burst into song was a romantic day in bed with an ex. Macy Gray was in the charts and was singing along to the song 'I Try' .....
I try to say goodbye and I choke
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it it's clear
I walk cobbles when you are not near
(should be My world crumbles when you are not near)
:oops: :oops: :oops: :oops:
Really bugs me when people burst into hysterical laughter and can't tell me what they're laughing at for ages :confused:
I just thank heavens I realised Barry White wasn't singing about Garlic sauce before anyone picked up on it :shock:
my first, my last, my everything
and the answer to all my dreams
you're my sun, my moon, my garlic sauce (s/b guiding star! :shock: )
my kind of wonderful, that's what you are
The above 3 songs are an easy mistake to make ..... aren't they


These are just a couple off the top of my head, there are probably hundreds more, and even more than that which I am still unaware I'm singing wrong :roll:
So, is there anyone else who has convinced themselves that the original singer has got the words wrong? And what songs are they?
MissChief - really hoping shes not the only one :shock:
