Sweet dreams are made of cheese/Who am I to disagree?

We’re all prone to the odd mishap when it comes to singing along to our favourite songs and Peter Kay has an entire routine based around the concept.

And now the music streaming site Spotify has surveyed its users to get the top 10 most misheard songs ever.

We have to say, we think the people they polled were taking the piss with some of these but here we go.

Number 1 was The Eurythmics classic, Sweet Dreams (Are Made of These) which the respondents claim they heard as ‘Sweet dreams are made of cheese/Who am I to disagree?’

Second was Rihanna’s We Found Love which they say was heard by many as “We found Dove in a soapless place”. Third was KD Lang’s hit Constant Craving, which was allegedly heard by some as ‘Can’t Stand Gravy’.

Others include Aerosmith’s ‘Do It Like A Lady’ and were pretty sure Bon Jovi never sang: “It doesn’t make a difference if we’re naked or not” in the classic ‘Livin’ on a Prayer’.
