I love Mondegreens, but I feel the Mondegreens I fall for are way more pervasive.
Try as I might, I still hear "Starbucks Lover" instead of "Star Crossed Lovers" in T. Swift's Blank Space, and "Galileo" instead of "Gotta Let Go" in Dynamite by Taio Cruz.
- stephen_g 9y agoIt's actually "Got a long list of ex-lovers." First time I heard it I was sure I was hearing "Got a lonely Starbucks lovers" or "Got a lovely Starbucks lovers" which didn't even make sense!
- SpoilerAlert 9y agoSometimes they sing the words differently. I've noticed other bands doing this. I.E. "refresherator" instead of "refrigerator" on "I Want My MTV" by Dire Straits.
- grzm 9y agoAre you sure you're not just mishearing this? (And the song is "Money for Nothing", by the way.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money_for_Nothing_(song) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money_for_Nothing_(song)
