There are COUNTLESS misheard song lyrics, but I think it's time for something rare! Misheard music band/duo/group/ solo names.
Misheard band name. Holland Oaks Correct band name. Hall And Oates. I remember looking up Holland Oaks on Amazon when I was younger and Amazon said,"No search results found for Holland Oaks." I was dismayed. I thought,"Holland Oaks is a widely popular, very good, singing duo! How could Amazon NOT have any search results on Holland Oaks? I later found out that the singing duo is Hall And Oates, not Holland Oaks. I searched Hall And Oates on Amazon, and Amazon had lots of Hall And Oates hits, no pun intended. So, any misheard music groups/bands/duo/solo names? |

Naaah. I used to go to record stores a lot and thumb through all the albums from A to Z, so there was never much chance that I wouldn't know a band or artist's name.
I kinda miss doing that. |

LOL, Thor but you are from a time where record stores were still all the rage in your youth! In my youth, Napster, Itunes, and Limewire were all the rage! There were like 2 record stores I knew of when I was a CHILD! And ONE dinky record store when I was like 21!

The first few times I saw the name of the band INXS in writing, I would ask myself... "WTF does "inksis" mean???"
Eventually I realized it's actually pronounced "in excess". I used to think that the band name Desmond Child and Rouge was some reference to a child named Desmond until I realized that the guy's name is Desmond Child. This is the 70's band in which the family of one of the "Rouges" (Rougettes?) were close friends of my family. |

Oh my God! Me too! It also took me a while to realize that INXS is "in excess!" I assumed that it was what it said on the tin. I N X S. Ha ving to say each letter out loud everytime just may get really annoying. Luckily it is pronounced in excess! |
