East Coast Radio - Catch Up Stacey & J Sbu

The lyrics you’ve been singing wrong all these years

Loading player...
We’ve all done it... confidently sung along to a song for years, only to find out the lyrics were completely wrong.

After a TikTok trend exposed some hilarious local versions of international hits, Stacey and J Sbu put a few classics to the test. From Akon apparently wanting to "kick it like Thabo" to Taylor Swift singing about a "Woolworths pie", these misheard lyrics will have you questioning everything you thought you knew.

Warning: once you hear these versions, you can’t unhear them.
