Though sometimes when Tom and Mark performs live, they butchered some lines for some dumb jokes lol.

Anarch157a, 
There this French fold band, Skáld that usually sings in Old Norse language. In the song Hross, the first line of the chorus is “Hverir eru þeir tveir?”. The way they sing those first two words sounds like “Fevereiro”, which is the Portuguese (my native language) word for February.
betterdeadthanreddit, (edited ) Golden Earring - Radar Love
We’ve got a thing that’s called red hot love
We’ve got a wave in the air
Red hot love
In my defense, I was hearing this over sometimes-fuzzy analog radio rather than off a tape or CD where the track title might clue me in. Less defensible: not noticing the other words that make more sense when talking about radar.
Rhynoplaz, I always thought that song was “Red Alert”
cheese_greater, SureSure
dmention7, I always thought it was redeye love, in the same context as a redeye flight.
SgtAStrawberry, There be a hot tub in the town of Berlin .
maniel, 
cashews_best_nut, Used to listen to this on the youth club juke box as a 10yo!
