Yeah, it's ANOTHER music thread - but feth it, why not?

I was just wondering what some of your musical 'guilty pleasures' were - those artists/songs you can't help loving, even though they bring you nothing but shame and persecution from your peers, and leave you an outcast from civilised society?

Mine is mid-period Mariah Carey. There, I said it. That feels better.




Too. Damn. Catchy.


Gah!

Celine Dion, although it seems to have become popular to be nasty about her due to the titanic song, I still love much of her work.

These in particular are just great songs.

Well, for all my love of shoegazing, industrial and goth and my loathing of most chart music and stuff like house music, I do love me a bit of drum n bass.

@Morathi's - I actually really like her version of Roy Orbison's 'I Drove All Night'.

No you shouldn't. Be proud of what you listen to.

I enjoy Evanescence (too lazy to go find a song sorry).

Oh and Panic! At The Disco is one of my favorite bands.

I didn't so much as listen to mid 90's Mariah as drool over mid-90's Mariah.

I was glad I had a box of Kleenex and some lotion near the tv whenever her videos played.

When you consider all the time I've spent making fun of the Jonases, I should be, because I'm a hypocrite.

Erasure's 'Always' is also another one of mine...




Mainly due to the fact that it was the song played non-stop in Adult Swim's: Robot Unicorn attack. Damn my love of flash games...

I have new found respect for KC now.

Admitting you like JT takes more balls than I could ever muster (or care to admit).

My guilty pleasure. I like some of Britney Spears' songs. Only SOME. Her last album was the best I think, even if that's not saying much when speaking about bubblegum pop, overnight sensation.

I'm starting to realize I might have terrible taste in music. I also quite like Locnville:




Their music isn't overly bad, however I am ashamed about actually liking a hip-hop group.

...word







as far as guilty pleasure?

feth, I'm not even guilty...I love this girl...all goes along with my obsession with Japan....(NO I don't like Anime....just have a dying passion for "akira" and "spirited away"...ahaha...and the whole effing country)







she released her first song in 1998 called..."pokerface"....yes...sorry Man Gaga is a cheap rip off POS. Not only is Ayu infinitely more talented...her music is about more than just being so high and drunk and partying etc.....
