Subject: Songs you like but are embaressed to admit it

Written By: Fred on 01/30/04 at 01:46 a.m.

C'mon I know there are some songs out there that you like, and wouldn't normally admit it. What are they?  :)

For me I'd have to say 'All By Myself'- Eric Carmen *Please don't laugh*  :-[

Actually Fred, that's a top song...

I suppose my ultimate 'guilty pleasure' is 'Save Your Kisses For Me' by The Brotherhood Of Man...

...but I don't make a habit of saying this in the presence of strangers for credibility purposes! Not when sober anyway!

Ah class songs!

The majority of my music tastes are questionable to say the least. I really am embarrassed to mention these songs  :-[.

'Crash bang wallop (what a picture)' - Tommy Steele
'Daytrip to Bangor' - Fiddlers Dram
'We all stand together (frog chorus)' - Paul McCartney
'Atmosphere' - Russ Abbot

And the old 1986 classic 'It's 'orrible being in love when you're eight and half' by Clare and Friends. I've taken some ribbing over that song!  >:(  :D

Those two above can be added to my list, as well as half of woops' list. ;D

That's an awsome song!

Ah, British pop music.  It gave us such wondrous (blech) performers as The Spice Girls, Westlife, and one of my personal favorite songs of all time, "Murder on the Dance Floor" by Sophie Ellis Bextor.

Put 'em top of my list, please ! Having been subjected to them for three of the last four years, I'm finally not realizing I'm singing along to their versions of Seasons In The Sun, and Fool Again. Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond my control (I couldn't prevent it, honest !) I know all the words to all the songs.

Now to stroll around randomly.

I love most of those. Except for Westlife, all their songs sound identical. My mother likes them, though. As does everyone's mother...

I'm ashamed to say that that song really turns me on. But then, I'm an adolescent girl. Everything does.

Wait, wait, wait, I HATE Westlife.  I only mentioned them so the Americans on this board would know what kind of music I was talking about when I said "Murder on the Dancefloor."

Forgot to mention songs from some hairbands like Poison, Motley Crue, Faster Pussycat, Bon Jovi, and Whitesnake.
Not to forget "Heaven" & "Cherry Pie" (Warrant).
The same with their videos.

Though I'm not ashamed about Def Leppard, Metallica, and  Guns N' Roses.  8)
