Here are two of mine, both from Pinocchio..
"Little puppet made of pie.."
"Well, as i live and breath! A Berry! Mmm-mmm!"

Heigh-Ho, Heigh-Ho
It's home from work we go
Foo foo foo foo
Foo foo foo foo
Heigh-Ho, Heigh-Ho
Not really a misheard lyric, but a purposely mispronounced one!
Also, for some reason, I loved the song "The Perfect Nanny" from Mary Poppins, but never sang the whole thing correctly. (red is wrong lyric I'd do)
If you want this choice position
Have a cheery disposition (this o'cision)
Rosy cheeks, no warts!(no wars)
Play games, all sorts
You must be kind, you must be witty
Very sweet and fairly pretty (very pretty)
Take us on outings, give us treats
Sing songs, bring sweets
Never be cross or cruel (cool)
Never give us castor oil or gruel (or glue)
Love us as a son and daughter (Lava sassa)
And never smell of barley water (bolly/folly/holly water)
If you won't scold and dominate us (If you wills cold and dummy-nate us)
We will never give you cause to hate us
We won't hide your spectacles
So you can't see
Put toads in your bed (tubes) (bath)
Or pepper in your tea
Hurry, Nanny
Many thanks
Sincerely
Jane and Michael Banks

No, I must have missed that post!

You know they fixed that, right? You can call in and exchange it for a new disc any time you feel like it.
How long ago did they fix this? If I were to purchase a Blu-ray from Barnes and Noble, would it still have the mistake or would it be fixed? Would I need to call in for an exchange no matter what I get (I already have the DVD, but I'm considering the Blu-ray)?JustOneBite87 wrote:David S. wrote:Speaking of mishearing in Pinocchio, when Jiminy Cricket says "Right!" during "Give A Little Whistle", unfortunately I mishear it as complete silence, because of a mistake in the Platinum Edition audio track in Region 1!

I never read anything about it on here either, however I called the number listed on this page and eventually managed to talk to an actual person:David S. wrote:

I assume you mean they fixed the DVD version and not just the BD?
Also, does anyone know if I still need my original receipt or anything cause I no longer have it.
Now I'm glad I tried to make a funny response because I learned something I did not know as a result!
I have no idea when they began re-pressing the disc with the fixed audio. All fairly recent copies SHOULD have the fixed audio on both the Blu-Ray and DVD. When I eventually got the Blu-Ray from the Disney Movie club I checked both disc and was surprised to find that the audio had been restored!

After reading that, im afraid that is what i hear as well..avonleastories95 wrote: "I know you the gleam in your eyes is so familar ugly."
Cassim: May be a bumpy ride
Aladdin: We'll make it side-by-side (naked side-by-side)
Because it is already preceded with "gets better." Aladdin sings, "Hold your breath, it gets better," which then rhymes with "Every moment red letter."toonaspie wrote:It still doesn't make sense to me that in the lyrics for "A Whole New World" Jasmine says 'Every moment's red letter'. The common misconception is that line was 'every moment gets better'. Wouldn't the latter make much more sense as far as lyrics for a Disney film goes? How many people are actually going to know what you're talking about when you say "red letter"?
Yes, they do say Jiminy Crickets. It was an expression used before Pinocchio, it's the same thing as Jiminy Christmas or jeez.BelleGirl wrote:Guys can you help me out? Every time I watch "Snow White and the seven dwarfs" (and I've seen it many times) I hear the dwars jointly cry out "Jiminy Crickets" when they discover Snow White. Do you hear the same? Maybe it's a common expression in the English language for being surprised, but I thought that it was very funny that the dwarfs were referring to a character in the next Disney animated feature.
