Totally correct. That is is probably the biggest hit with the toughest lyrics to make out.

And Pearl Jam is even worse.... I dare anyone to transcribe Yellow Ledbetter without cheating.

My friend does this all the time.

You belong to the city he thought was You belong to the sea.

Invisible Touch he thought was Physical Attraction, but I can see that one.

Talking of mis-heard Bon Jovi ones though, one for me was from This Ain't a Love Song, I always thought it was - "And now it's so sad, and whatever we had it would save me" rather than "ain't worth saving".

I have heard of people thinking It's My Life had the lyrics "Like Frankenstein, I did it my way" haha
I thought the same with This Ain't a Love song as well. I still sing it that way out of habit as I have been singing it like that for years.

My friend started singing California Dreaming one day. He sang "California dreamin' on such a winner's day" instead of "California dreamin' on such a winter's day"

He went through his whole life thinking those were the lyrics. I've never let him forget his idiocy.

I don't know about Bon Jovi. I think I got a lot of the words to Say It Isn't so wrong in my head, the vocals weren't that clear on that one.

The first time I listened to Beautiful World, I thought it said:

"The Pretzel man's wearing Gucci glasses
A widow spreads her lover's asses"

Kind of disturbing

"I don't know when a bottle of vodka in my head wrong not nice gary in my head, I think she stole my name is andrew movies wake me up miranda, you close your eyes no I'll be thinking of you well if you called me to standards of life tonight I will be alone, but you know tell me now lovely anne nothing claudio I'm done"

born to be my baby:
"because better hang on tight google baby a bumpy ride with 2 kids sitting on the road of life alo alo fight"

A few years ago a friend told me: "I'm not really into BJ, but their tune 'Heaven I Stay' is really catchy and rockin'!"
I thought he was confusing it with a different band but it ended up he meant "Have A Nice Day"
Since that day I usually hear "Heaven I Stay" when Jon sings that song live
