My favorite: Kenny Rodgers, Lucille:

"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille, with four hungry children and a crop in the field."

Sometimes heard as:

"You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille, with four hundred children and a cop in the field."

Anyone else got a favorite?

CCR: There's a bad moon on the rise

Some hear: There's a bathroom on the right.

(John Fogerty sometimes sings " Bathroom " at concerts.)

Blinding by the light - "revved up like a douche" instead of "deuce"

Always thought "Eminence Front" sounded like "Living in the strut"

Lots of Phish haters on here but Moma Dance by Phish is one big stankee example of a Mondegreen.
