We estimate the energy of the lowest charmonium and upsilon states with hybrid admixtures using the method of QCD sum rules. Our results show that the {psi}{sup '}(2S) and {upsilon}(3S) states both have about a 50% admixture of hybrid and meson components. From this we find explanations of both the famous {rho}-{pi} puzzle for charmonium and the unusual pattern of {sigma} decays that have been found in {upsilon} decays. Moreover, this picture can be used for predictions of heavy quark production with the octet model for RHIC.
