Hummed away the portions of songs you did not get on the first go? Suddenly realising the lyrics of your favourite song were totally different all this while? Too afraid to indulge in karaoke? Opening up that lyric website to recheck every time? You are not on that estranged island. And certainly not alone, my friend.
If you have answered the above questions with an affirmative, welcome to the club. We’ve all done this at some point or the other. This is an international phenomenon and if science interests you, ‘mondegreen’ is what it is called.
