There this French fold band, Skáld that usually sings in Old Norse language. In the song Hross, the first line of the chorus is "Hverir eru þeir tveir?". The way they sing those first two words sounds like "Fevereiro", which is the Portuguese (my native language) word for February.
"Carry a laser" - Mr. Mister
Working with guys who's 1st language isn't English singing "Take me to Monkey Town", instead of "Take me to Funky Town."
Golden Earring - Radar Love
We've got a thing that's called ~~red hot love~~
We've got a wave in the air
~~Red hot love~~
In my defense, I was hearing this over sometimes-fuzzy analog radio rather than off a tape or CD where the track title might clue me in. Less defensible: not noticing the other words that make more sense when talking about radar.
I always thought that song was "Red Alert"
I always thought it was redeye love, in the same context as a redeye flight.

My aunt once told me when one of my cousins was like 4 or 5, he was singing along to Band on the Run, but saying "Hand on the rug"
Call Me Maybe / Carly Rae Jepsen
You took your time with the call
I took no time with the fall
You gave me nothing at all
But still, you're in my way
I beg and borrow and steal
~~Swear to Satan it's real~~ At first sight, and it's real
I didn't know I would feel it
But it's in my way
Yep. Knew it was wrong, but that's what I heard. TIL what the actual lyrics are.
Another Carly Rae one:
Fake Mona Lisa
He was born in Vegas
The way she sings it, it sounds like
It's morning fa**ots
There be a hot tub in the town of Berlin .

She hides like a child but she's ~~always a woman to me~~ == a weasel-woman to me

What have I become my Swedish friend?
My sister-in-law thought the chorus of Metallica's Battery was "backdoor raid". Now I can't unhear it.
I also thought in Live and Let Die Paul sang, "give an Alabama yell" instead of "give the other feller hell."
I can't believe this is 15 years ago. Still hear these in the song today. https://youtu.be/VWqC4KKiVbU
At first I thought Post Malone was saying “swallow my knife” and not “spoil my night.”
