for those who dont know, a mondegreen is "a mishearing or misinterpretation of a phrase as a result of near-homophony, in a way that gives it a new meaning. Mondegreens are most often created by a person listening to a poem or a song; the listener, being unable to clearly hear a lyric, substitutes words that sound similar and make some kind of sense. American writer Sylvia Wright coined the term in 1954, writing about how as a girl she had misheard the lyric "...and laid him on the green" in a Scottish ballad as "...and Lady Mondegreen". (wiikipedia)

for me, one that sticks out iis one i just recently figured out. "nothings gonna stop us now" by starship. the actual lyric is "and when this world runs out of lovers, we'll still have each other". but what id heard was "and when this world burns down above us". ^_^
