I guy i knew taught himself to play the Prodigy song 'Smack My Bitch Up', on guitar, but thought the words were 'Snap my picture'. He was horrified when he found out the truth...

Okay, don't laugh: "Secret Asian Man" instead of "Secret Agent MAn". I always sang along with it until my brother caught what I was singing. 18 years later I still get picked on!

You're right,it does sound like Secret Asian Man. Here's another:in Van McCoy's "Do the Hustle",it sounds like the background singers are going:"Do the Hotdog". I may be alone on that one.

Sail Away-Enya

How about "Fins to the left Fins to the right" Fins, Jimmy Buffet

my wife and daughter thought it was "dance to the left, dance to the right"

Are you a Buffet fan? The man can really tell a humorous (sp?) story, in song!😲 I've always liked "I'm looking for a smart women in a real short skirt"πŸ™„

Good song. Jimmy was a customer of mine when I managed the Meat Dept. of a specialty grocer on Palm Beach. But I'D been a fan for many years before that. Jimmy is regular people, doesn't put on airs, just a great guy. I don't have a favorite song, they are all my favorites, as I'm typing this I'm listening to "Volcano"
