Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Belinda Carlisle

Misheard lyrics (also called mondegreens) occur when people misunderstand the lyrics in a song. These are NOT intentional rephrasing of lyrics, which is called parody. For more information about the misheard lyrics available on this site, please read our FAQ.

This page contains a list of the songs that have stories about their misheard lyrics submitted.

Song names are sorted by first letter, excluding A and The. This is sorted by song title only, not by song title and performer. So if two different performers preformed the same song, you'll see misheard lyrics for both on the same page (provided the song title was spelt the same both times, and misheard lyrics have been submitted for both!).

The Misheard Lyrics:
Somehow all around
The Real Lyrics:
Sundown all around

Belinda Carlisle's, "Heaven Is A Place On Earth"
The Misheard Lyrics:
Blue Heaven is a place on Earth.
The Real Lyrics:
Ooh, Heaven is a place on Earth.
The Story: My cousin and I used to fight about it every time. She was convinced it was 'Blue Heaven', while I knew the real lyrics. She'll still probably argue it is 'Blue Heaven'. She'll probably hate me for writing this and making fun of her. - Submitted by: Kelly

Belinda Carlisle's, "Mad About You"
The Misheard Lyrics:
It's not about you (not about you)
Nothing but lies (stealing little lies)
Not about love
(not about you)
You and I.
The Real Lyrics:
Mad about you (mad about you)
Lost in your eyes (reason aside)
Mad about love (Mad about you)
You and I.
The Story: I honestly think I'm the worst person on the planet for mishearing lyrics. I only just figured out this one (Jan 2004) when I attempted to find the song title so I could get a copy of it. After searching for 'Not About You' forever, I finally realized it was Belinda Carlisle, and started searching for her songs. - Submitted by: Mark E.
