Misheard Lyrics

A radio programme did a text-in on these yesterday, and coincidentally last night I put on an old CD Eamonn had given us, "Celtic Heart", and first track up contains my favourite misheard lyric.

"Fergus Sings the Blues" - Deacon Blue - the second verse opens with some heartfelt name-dropping of blues' legends:
"Homesick James, my biggest influence"
which has never really worked for me as I've always heard it as:


"Oh, Sid James, my biggest influence"

Which frankly works so much better.

Any more?
