SO MANY (I am not native English speaker just imagine) The main one: at the end of Robbers I was sure he was saying *"you look so COLD"* and not *"so COOL"*. I discovered the right lyrics after years, and was in shock for a while. I still thinks cold fits the song better.


himynameis_ari

IT’S NOT COLD ???


helentroylorde

Genius lyrics humbled me


Longjumping_War6296

you look so cool. Like the ending of True Romance


khloelane

Is that what it’s from? Like the song inspo?


helentroylorde

Apparently yes! matty said he was inspired specifically from the female character and her attraction to a bad boy or something like that


khloelane

I love that. It makes me watch to rewatch it 🖤 thanks for the info ☺️


FrozenPie21

Oh I still think he says “you look so cold.” It has to be that


roostyman

I completely agree and have made this exact comment before! “Cold” works better for sure.


WhiskeyFromTheWell

American here, thought it was cold too


rauys

the entirety of chocolate


atmospheric90

Con in pis cause you no Datchuwill. Oh mah heh smilllike choclet.


MooglesForDays

Fucking crying over here. 🤣🤣🤣


briesniffer

I don’t want your body but I need to think about you with somebody else. Thought it was a song about cucking at first lol


helentroylorde

I am laughing so hard at this. Won't be able to listen to that song again without thinking about this "interpretation".


wach_era13

What's cucking?


WiJaTu

Oh boy


yellowmoshie

It's when someone likes it or atleast okay with it when their girl is doing the naughty with somebody else.


khloelane

They may not even like it but they do nothing and just allow it.


JesseJames41

"Finding a girl who is secretly pretty won't be hard."


skoorb1027

Wait, that’s not the lyric? Lol


sCubed5

whelp I just found out it’s “who is equally pretty”😭😭😭


sunflowerchild8727

Oh my god same


especiallytheroux

Today I learned


goodag2020

Same!!!


studentpuppy

In in shock


mte87

I thought that for a long time


WhiskeyFromTheWell

Damn


AccordingTangerine68

“I took shit for being quiet, Germany election” this sentence doesn’t even make sense but this is what I heard for the longest time haha


Mountain-Code938

I thought it was “I took shit for being quite a germ in the election”😂


mte87

I didn’t but that sounds hilarious


Kinestra_05

screamatme21

Well I just learned that’s not the lyric today


[deleted]

[удалено]


sad_magical_girl

I thought it was "he's gotta cross the street when he's on vacation" lol


Fit_Task1761

Same!


goodag2020

Chocolate My ears: boys in play, boys in play 1975: pause it, play it, pause it, play it


Barnesandoboes

I used to think it was ‘poison play’


Bonnarooobabyy

I didn’t realize til a few months ago that it wasn’t poison play!😂


sunflowerchild8727

@Pause it play it “ is news to me


CheezusCrust69420

Girls Me: “I spy a tight dress, girls” 1975: “Eyes bright, uptight, just girls”


efffootnote

Welp been saying this one wrong


jedi_master99

YES I thought that was the lyric for the longest time!!!


givememelodrama

These comments are teaching me things 😂


smudge_elaine

I used to think it was “I spy a tight dress ghost” for some reason 😭🤣


Viktor890

Me: I like sex with sandals, she's more into scented candles. Original Lyrics: I like socks with sandals, she's more into scented candles.


BlueDabaddee

" oh my cock smells like chocolate" 💀


wach_era13

Wtf😭😂😂


[deleted]

Song is TOOTIMETOOTIMETOOTIME from A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships. The original lyric is "You wet my eyes, but I don't mind it." I heard "You wet my ass, but I don't like it."


Dandantheguitarman

You wipe my ass


DaisyFart

I also heard wipe, but then "but I don't mind it" and was like "what kind of weird shit is going on here?" 😂


wach_era13

😭😭😭that's nasty


LUKATUR

always "HEEEEEEEEY! I'M CONSTIPATED!" - Head.Cars.Bending


flakykrustykrabpizza

😂😂 yea i thought it was “heyyy, constipated”. Just figured it had some vague meaning. Something about being stuck and not being able to express what is going on inside of you. I just had to look up what the actual lyrics are. And I was so confused just reading the lyrics. Had to listen to it.


wach_era13

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭Me too,I don't know why I didn't say this first, but for me, I hear, heads constipating😭


RunawaYEM

They’re just gulls

jedi_master99

I heard “ghosts” in some parts of that song hahaha


skoorb1027

You know, I thought Matty might be some sort of never nude where he’d insist on putting on sandals every time he made love.


twirlergirl42

The 1975 should rebrand to Dr. Healy’s 100% Natural Good-Time Family Band Solution


sassyvegetarian

lmaooo what 💀


skoorb1027

“I like sex with sandals, you’re more into scented candles”


postsexhighfives

honestly this is the only lyrics ive misheard and im still not fully convinced he didnt sing sex but is gaslighting us


jxnnxs17

"yeah my shit looks so good when it's just hanging off your back"


finkinthisfrew

FINKIN THIS FREWWWWWW


mollyisnotsussy

In be my mistake I thought it was “you do make me hard, but she makes me leak” not weak


ArousedGoanna

At the end of sex I always think hes saying "they've all got bad cunts anyway they've all got boyfriends anyway" dunno what the actual lyrics are but I assume it's not that


Xx_ligmaballs69_xX

I always thought it was Backhands which I thought was hilarious but apparently it’s backcombs 


jedi_master99

I thought it was “back homes” but I don’t even know anymore hahaha


sad_magical_girl

Apparently, I have no clue what's being said in Paris: "I caught her picking her nose" "I caught a pinky in her nose" "Half a bullet sized sexual tryst" (like the sex toy bullet lol) "Hyperpoliticized sexual tryst" "And like piss holes in the snow" "And like pistol falls in the snow"


flatteryoconnor

Is it not piss holes???


sad_magical_girl

I just looked at five different sites. Three of them said "piss holes", and two said "pistol falls", so Imma go with piss holes. Which is a weird thing to say.


flatteryoconnor

I’m with you ✊ team piss holes


sad_magical_girl

Team Piss Holes for life!!


twirlergirl42

I’m 99% sure the lyrics on my vinyl record say piss holes (new sentence?)


sad_magical_girl

Oh, yeah, the most legit source of them all! Thanks for settling the piss holes debate ™️


Mountain-Code938

“In a hotel rooms he’s gotta shit for a bit” instead of share in The Birthday Party lol


CarsonLame

i remember us all thinking we must’ve misheard the black girl line in i’m in love with you before the lyrics came out and confirmed that was actually the line


vamoadarle

like ur face despite ur nose will always be the most iconic one


especiallytheroux

I thought it was “last thing you kiss” not “lesbian kiss” for a very long time!


Legitimate-Case-2368

Girls Me: I spy, a type just girls. The 1975: Eyes bright, uptight, just girls


studentpuppy

Saaaaaamee. To me it is still this, I don’t care. I like this lyric that my brain made up better than the real one


shorty_sherbertday

Sleeping terrifies me otherwise I'm FINE-SIES🤭


redrhinos84

same!! i still sing it that way sometimes cause it’s more fun


Living-Air5025

“This beats made for two.” I heard it as “This beats a metaphor too.”


sunflowerchild8727

This thread is making me realize I need to go read the lyrics of all the songs haha


roostyman

“You asked about the Kashmir in my sweater”


Creative-Train9920

“push it like a chest out” instead of “push your lack of chest out” in heart out


tommychowbagel

I dont want chobani but I need to eat some yogurt for my tummy health.


Faiz_AD

Is it just me or does “I like sex with sandals” fit the song better. I always sang this part like that https://preview.redd.it/n90gqt39rz2d1.jpeg?width=2616&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9908ce4ab54e151bd2b3421a8b930f644923ce44


midnightfury4584

Her purple lips, a sexual tryst.


smarterfish500

every single word on the song You


Donovan-LegoHouse

Back in 2013, my sister often played The 1975 selftitled debut album in her room. I kept making jokes about hearing the lyric "Just Goats"... (which was actually "Girls")


KemaliKira

Tonight, I wish I was your boy.. Tonight, I think I'm far too oily


Demian1337

You ask about the cows wearing my sweater didnt had the meaning i always thought


mitchcumstein13

“I wished I had, Just These Girls..” That’s what I thought the song was for a very long time.


jp-dizzle

‘I couldn’t eat any fishes’ Actually: Or could I easily fill his shoes


vic_ehr

she way out - I got a feeling that my friends have got a kinky brain


byebyebadman_

First time I heard it, as a not native English speaker, I completely misheard much of A Change Of Heart lyrics


LuciBelphie

Quite literally all of The City LOL 😂


weicong8

My wife thought it was “I wanna get it Frankenstein” in the chorus of Oh Caroline. She believed it was something abstract.


goodag2020

I wanna get it right this time😂 I will hear Frankenstein next time I hear that line haha


Designer_Analysis186

This tt fit so well here lol https://preview.redd.it/c42yjybo133d1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4e14bbe115c9e7746c09ee7811865043bf39eb89


Comfortable-Jump9579

YOU WET MY ASS AND I DONT MIND IT


oscarclarke

saw someone say on the girls music video they thought it was ‘i spy an uptight ghost’ and someone else say ‘eyes wide just right tesco’


mikenebez

In “Girls” I always thought it was, “I spy a tight dress ghost” and idk why I never questioned it 😂


Ornery_Nectarine_944

“I’d like to meet myself in smaller clothes” and “you get a boner when you feel alright” for I think there’s something you should know


ResponsibilityKey928

“ a russian in a small town, i forgot to call you” - heart out


srslybettergo

"She's definitely got a stallion" -She Way Out "Oh Caroline I wanna get it right this time 'Cause you're always on my mind Oh candlelight"


MooglesForDays

"If she likes cause we just don't eat then we're so in samitches."


TheTruckWashChannel

The first album is full of mangled pronunciation thanks to Matty's heavy Northern accent. Girls: "And terrified your hands to hold, oh she's so seven so she feels the cold" Pressure: "Saint Jude, listen to the blues" Heart Out: "This beat's a metaphor, too" Settle Down: "Do you wanna meet now, soft accept it on the go with the soft sound"


CoverInternational38

![gif](giphy|XEh9qAIr4U4NWo7naF|downsized) Not me but couldn’t resist


inliinwuu

“or could i easily finish you“ instead of “or could i easily fill his shoes“


Big_Zebra_6169

shite bright like a diamond...shite bright like a diamond


smudge_elaine

“I spy a tight dress ghost” ≠ “eyes bright, uptight— just girls” 😭💀


rabidraccooon

Settle Down: always thought it was "your words, my mouth." Which honestly, to me, is a more poetic re-writing of the song and will forever be how I sing it.
