This isn't so much misheard so much as my brain just reinterpreting a phrase not in my mother tongue to English words with similar sounds:

:il:
Actual: the Hebrew phrase in the chorus
My version: Time to see what she got on

I find that anything in Serbian or similar lends itself particularly well to that. To me :rs: 2020 goes...

Hasta la vista, Baby
Even though he blind,
Even, even though he blind
Hasta la vista, Baby
Yes, I'm gonna climb
Yes sir, yes I'm gonna climb

Haha you'll see my full misheard Hasta La Vista in the Serbian thread, but for continuity... First verse and chorus only...

"Yellow dumb tree, he cries
Oprah, yeah no, you're snide
Prove your oven's got more slime
Oven teaser y'all, oven, oven teaser y'all
Spoke Deben and I'm slammed
Dishing an old bee, yaaas
Ostrich he told me he yummm
Classic older dad keeps on sniffing up your snacks

Mutton penny kissing my lobe, crazy!
I saw my pickled ear, it's like noooo raisins!
A few more people spawn, wish you're sunny
Sadly look my veal, oops I nearly lost my veal

Chorus:
Hasta la vista baby,
In alone, he's mine, in a- in alone, he's mine
Hasta la vista baby
Yes I'll calm down, yes I, yes I'll calm down
Gal, she be Svala
Stall something for Velar
And I tickle some vole talons
It's all in a tissue, tissue
Dumb Balan!"

Ah man, how did I miss this beauty! Thanks for sharing.

Curiously, I couldn't remember any of last year's Serbian entry except the chorus. That's got me a bit worried for them.

And surely I can't be the only English-speaking ESC fan who's sang at the top of their voice...

NOTHING IS A CRIIIIIME...
Vodim te na igranku!

(Yes, I know it's :me:)

What I heard: Not until the thunders, hashtag - we have grace
Actual lyrics: Not until the thunder’s hushed Are we at rest
So I just sung that line, and I realised I'd been singing "Not until the thunder's crushed a wee unblessed" xshrug

:mt: with this song I very often hear "Focus" instead of "Je me casse". Especially when I am not fully focused on the song. Ironic :)

Actual lyrics:

Sunshine, I wanna touch you
Wind blow, I wanna see you.
I wanna touch, I wanna see,
I wanna be, with you.

Ocean, I wanna hear you.
Mountain, I wanna feel you.
I wanna hear, I wanna feel,
I wanna be, with you.

You’re everywhere, where I am.
You’re in everything, that I do.
My love, my love,
I wanna be with you.
You
My love my love
I wanna be with you.

Misheard:

I wanna be with you with you with you with you i wanna be with you with you with you with you..you..wanna..:sleep::sleep::sleep:
