We all have one ... or more. You know, the ones you listen to when no one else is around, for fear of relentless razzing if the truth were revealed.

Leif Garrett, "I Was Made for Dancing"

Shut up.

Next?


Divinyls... "I Touch Myself".

If you mean the song from The Breakfast Club, that's by Simple Minds, not Billy Idol.

As for myself, I'd have to nominate Phil Collins, "In the Air Tonight".

"Run with us" (the racoons theme song) by Lisa Locheed
LOVE IT!

Grand Lodge

Most Queen songs.

REO Speedwagon ballads.

Um, and I kinda like Bryan Adams' "Run to you". But not enough to put up a link.


I listen to whatever, I don't give a damn.

I'll listen to Barbara Streisand,
Judy Garland,

then put on some Behemoth.

I tell people the same thing about my radio show, and they never believe me. The line I keep getting is, "People say they listen to everything, but they don't listen to rap or country." Those exact words.

So, for tomorrow's show, I'm playing Hank Williams III, Johnny Cash, Jerry Jeff Walker, Ali Jezz, and 3rd Bass. How's that.

How about this version?

Songs from Corey Hart's Greatest Hits Album

Sunglasses at Night
Never Surrender
Eurasian Eyes
Boy in the Box
In Your Soul
I Can't Help Falling In Love


Saxon's "Rock the Nations" album.

Silver Crusade

Everything I ever listen to.

80 power ballads and hair rock mixed in with a healthy dose of indie stuff, Bowie, 60's/70's soul, early industrial, cheese, Elton John and Monty Python.

Bit of a mix really but all pretty mainstream. I like what I like...

In case you hadn't heard, Billy Idol was originally commissioned to perform Don't You Forget About Me - the deal fell through, but if you check his greatest hits, there IS a recording erroneously dubbed a cover.

I blame VH1.

That said, I'm a danceaholic, and to make matters worse I have terrible taste. So for me, there's the big trinity of shameful guilty dirty music pleasures.

Yolanda B Cool feat. D-Cup - We No Speak Americano.
DJ Steve Aoki feat. Zuper Blaqh - I'm in the House! (LMFAO MIX)
Taio Cruz feat. Kesha - Take a Dirty Picture


Britney Speare's Hold it against me
The Saturdays Ego (I've had an image of the five female iconics singing this to Valeros)
Rhianna Only girl in the world
keasha take it off

Dark Archive

If it's horrible and dance-able, I'm all over it.

No Doubt - Hella Good (or Hey Baby)? Oh yeah.

Anything with vocals by Marsha Wash? (C&C Music Factory, Snap, etc.) Gets me moving.


I hate myself for being a GaGa convert.

When I stopped looking at it as pop music and treated it as performance art, for certain values of 'art', I found it grew on me like a freaky symbiote.


My guilty pleasure music wise: "Glee" versions of songs.

Also Richard Cheese who may be more brilliant than Wierd Al.


As an affirmed metalhead and redneck country boy my guilties are:

Musical Youth: Youth of Today [first single I bought]

Take That: The Flood

I feel like a weight has been lifted. Thank you Dr Shiny :)


Crazy B&~$+, by Buck Cherry. It's the last song I sang karoeke to. Basically it was an excuse to curse repeatedly and loudly in public.


I'm fully aware that this is going to destroy whatever remaining indie cred I might have, but...

...I really like Twenty One Pilots.


Spice Girls - 2 become 1

Although I'm not sure if it's a guilty pleasure if your response to someone razzing you for it would be along the lines of "shut up, it's a really good pop song, regardless of who made it."


Now, if someone were to give me crap for liking this pretty darn sexist song I'd have no defence, though.

Don't think I didn't see that and will be making a mental note of it to use against you at a later date.


Alright Since it has to be a song that I don't want people to now I enjoy then that leaves the numa numa song.

Ma-ia-hii
Ma-ia-huu
Ma-ia-hoo
Ma-ia-haa


I dance at awful latin music at weddings... and I enjoy it!!!
But I would never admit it...

D'oh!

The Exchange

I used to have guilty pleasures but in the meantime I've become very unapologetic about what I like or not.

But as someone who hates german "Schlagermusik" with every fibre of his being, it would probably be this one:

Hey! You asked for it!


I was hoping for "Ein bischen frieden." (Not that you should be ashamed if you like that one.)

The Exchange

Well, the singer of "Ein bischen Frieden" comes from the same region I live in (I even met her once or twice in the shopping mall I'm usually buying my stuff) so we were naturally all big fans when she won the Eurovision contest with that song.

It's also that I feel that the old Schlager still had a bit of charm to it while today, around 95% of all songs have this terrible keyboard sound that we used to call "Euro trash" back in the 90's.

Oh and the modern lyrics are dumb as hell and I simply can't pretend (as I'm able with english songs) not to understand anything.

So I really kinda hate myself if one of those songs is catchy enough that I start to sing along.

That album's a masterpiece!


I have no songs that I could rate as guilty pleasures. I have no regrets about anything I listen to.

Ok, there's one: Bay City Rollers - I Only Wanna Be With You

Bonnie Tyler - Total Eclipse of the Heart
It's about a vampire! Plus, like a lot of people, anything written by Jim Steinman.
