Misheard Song Lyrics -> Stories -> Blu Cantrell/Sean Paul

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!).

Blu Cantrell/Sean Paul's, "Breathe"
The Misheard Lyrics:
God, feel up ya vibe and stop acting crazy
Reminisce 'bout all the good times baby
Why do I suppose you've been shaftin' shady?
The Real Lyrics:
God, free up ya vibe and stop actin' crazy
Reminisce 'bout all the good times daily
Why you trying to pose I be actin' shady?
The Story: Originally, I thought this song was called 'breed' and knowing the r'n'b rap scene is famous for its ladies with hardly any clothes on and that they all seem to feature on each others tracks, it seemed perfectly ok to suppose Sean Paul was accusing Blu Cantrell of shagging around with Slim Shady........... 'till I read the lyrics sheet that is! dur!!! - Submitted by: craig mac
Blu Cantrell/Sean Paul's, "Breathe"
The Misheard Lyrics:
Sean Paul and Blu Cantrell
Remix that will make your breath smell.
The Real Lyrics:
Sean Paul and Blu Cantrell
Remix that gona make ya head swell.
The Story: My mate started singing this when she was slightly tipsy. When I pointed out the true lyrics, she argued violently saying that the song was called "Breathe", and so her version was obviously the proper one. - Submitted by: Dottie
