Can I use 'urge of saying...' in the place of 'urge to say'?
I'm perfectly aware that I should opt for 'urge to say' for this is gramatically correct, but can I say 'urge of saying' instead, since it sounds more natural to my ears? Is it massively wrong if I use it whilst chatting with someone else from the UK or USA, as an example?

It's not massively wrong to say it, but if you're speaking to a native English speaker, they might assume that you made a grammar mistake and correct you or ask for you to explain by what you mean "urge of saying".
