Maybe the reason tonight's guestsÌýASIWYFA don't bother with lyrics is because we'll only go and mishear them or replace what they're singing with our own idea of what it should be. We've all done it - picked up a key line wrong or struggled to make out a singer and invented our own lyrics instead. That song by Stiff Little Fingers - he's singing 'return of the monster', right?

For this week's suggestion-aire then, we'd like to hear your own misheard lyrics. Or indeed, if you'd like to speak on behalf of a daft mate. Either way, hit us up on or or text us on 81771 during the show tonight (8-10pm). As always, we'll read out as many as we can. And remember - what's a glove, got to do, got to do with it?

It really was lovely of JT to reference our producer in his pop smash 'Rock Your Body'. Knowing we were doing this blog, I asked Justin there now on Facebook chat about the lyric and he explained:

'It's a funny story actually. Myself and Pablo were heading out for H'ween one year to the Limelight. He decided to go as Britney with me as Madonna. I must say, I was really taken by his outfit. He looked amazing! But of course, he ruined it every time he opened his mouth, with that rugged, manly voice of his. So I told him not to say a word. I said to him to just behave like Britney as much as possible, that I liked it. Don't talk, I said. "You don't have to admit you're Paul McClean". With hindsight, that was a pretty weird night.'

Not one I claim for myself sadly, but my mate Chris is a cracker for these. He was a pure dance head back in the 90's and he had a tape of a mix by the Dust Brothers (later to become the Chemical Brothers) which had a remix of La Tristesse Durera by the Manics. He heard me playing the original one day and started happily singing along with his utter gubbins until I paused the song and politely asking him to repeat what I just heard.

"Its that tune 'Electro stencil de-railroad'". Belter.

One aspect of misheard lyrics, is the osmosis of it all. Team ATL were on their way to a festival last year, the car playlist is go, the sun is out (possibly, that I can't really recall) and the systematic destruction of a song by one of my favorite acts begins.

Caribou's new track 'Odessa' is on the speakers, I'm bopping along blissfully and then Rigsy (i think - for the purpose of this feature we'll blame Rigsy) declares that the chorus sounds like, 'chicken steak, chicken steak, chicken steak' instead of 'she can say, she can say, she can say'. Never, and I mean NEVER have I heard that song since without thinking of chicken steaks. I'm pretty sure the food theme continued into '1979' by the Smashing Pumpkins ('Oooooh....gravy, gravy') but thankfully far too many years were invested in every note of that band to even entertain the idea of any 'misheard' food themed lyric.

Ìý'Mens Needs, Mens Needs, Apollo Creed, Rocky 3' - The Cribs
Phily Taggart - ATL Stunt Double

The only thing a man needs, according to The Cribs is 'Apollo Creed' and your copy of 'Rocky 3'. The Cribs chose to sing about Rocky 3 because of its triumph of the human spirit, former foes Rocky Balboa and Apollo Creed come together in a beautiful union to battle that chocolate wielding, plane fearing Mr. T in a fight of good vs evil. That may be the case, or I may have mis-heard the track at the Oxegen festival and proceeded to sing it at soul crushingly loud volume for the next two days.
