Yup. I first learned how to pronounce Magneto while watching that Wings concert on BBC TV in the mid-70s.

Not a terribly good song, though.

I always pronounced T'Challa in a different way to that used in the Black Panther movie.

Ch sound as in, for example, chord, rather than Ch as in chat.

One very similar to this.

I always thought Magneto's alter ego, Erik Lehnsherr, was pronounced Germanically as 'lanes-her', whereas in the X-Men films it's more like 'len-share'.

I recalled it as more of a rocker myself. Hadn't heard it in many years. I was still thinking Paul was dead when this stuff came out. 

I'm afraid to listen to "Give Ireland back to the Irish". I really enjoyed that in the day.

I fondly remember a story in which Bizarro Superman kept calling him Greg. Don't blame him.

As a kid, reading my first Incredible Hulk comics. Then running around the house yelling my interpretation of

"Puny humans"  pronounced punny, like funny.  My older siblings deciphered the  bizarre chant, and after correcting me ,began

a, relentless campaign of teasing that continues to this day.
