Urban LegendsI'm ashamed to admit it, but I fell for the "Bob Holness played the saxophone on Gerry Rafferty's Baker Street" story some years back. It just seemed so right. I still want it to be true.
What have you fallen for, or even better, what legends have you started?

Here's a little song I wrote..I was duped myself and I dutifully passed it on to hundreds of other irony buffs over the years in good faith. I believed for ages that Bobby Mcferrin - the guy who recorded the feel good "Don't worry - be happy" song - had committed suicide shortly after its release. The irony made it all seem so beautifully plausible. Only recently discovered he didn't -Pleased to note on Wiki that I was not the only one...

Apologies if this has already been bagged.
