"i don't wanna know.. if your playin me keep it on the low... cause my heart can't take it anymore..."

hey hey hey.

Man, those are things I'm proud to like.

The Privates

I also have a secret love for anything and everything that has involved Jeff Lynne. It's the hair.

I think we've covered this before...

Hall & Oates
Duran Duran
80's Compilations, the weirder the mix the better.

And my all time guilty pleasure song is: "Thunder Island" by Jay Fergusen. I dare anyone of you to play that song and not sing along.

HSS, IWE and I discussed this while watching I Love the 90s, but we all love us some early-to-mid 90s R&B. "No Diggity" by Blackstreet is a darn good song and come on, who can deny CrazySexyCool? "This is How We Do It" by Montell Jordan, I could probably think of more if I tried...

ELO aint embarrasing.

Is Carole King embarrasing enough?

Mine remains: Air Supply.

A fifth of Beethoven...hell yeah.

Spin Doctors
The Tubes
Queen

i'm slightly embarrassed to like the white stripes as much as i do. just because other people like them i guess...and suede, mostly because other people hate them.

That's not ELO.

Lately? I'm into Usher.

It's Mario Winans if we're talking about the same song. That's the one that samples the Fugees song, right?

When you get a CD player, you need to get The Score by the Fugees. That album is off the chain. I'm gonna go listen to it right now.

I agree 100%. I love the 90s has really reminded me of all the stuff that I secretly like and am ashamed to admit. "this is how we do it" can really get stuck in my head. Oh the memories of being in 7th grade...

I think you misunderstood the point of this thread because you're not embarrassed by your love for any of those.

I misunderstood this thread, too, because I thought it was going to be about masturbation.

eh, im not embarrassed by anything i listen to though other people might smirk at the fact that i enjoy the following:
-meatloaf
-hall and oats
-chicago (all eras)
-earth, wind, and fire
-falco
-jay-z

yep.

that "Yeah" song is horrid but the other two singles off the new album are excellent. I feel ya, JamieCarroll.

nah, i understood. i'm not embarrassed about too many things, certainly not music. but i do get made fun of for all of that stuff.

speaking of embarrassing, how cool am i for clicking the submit button twice?

(Edited by simone at 1:28 pm on Jul. 20, 2004)

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention I might go see Hanson at the Ryman soon.

i was going to go and sit on the balcony, but for some reason they wouldn't let me purchase an extra seat for my sniper rifle...

ZING!

oh man, i almost forgot. i was such a huge fan of the original crew. movies I-VI were the best.

if double posting is cool, consider me miles davis.

GOO!

i can relate. though i would never say i'm embarrassed to like them, i do tire of that "what a dumbass" look on people's faces when they ask who my favorite bands are.


the early 90s r&b jams are where it's at. i wish i still had my copy of "crazysexycool." i would totally listen to it. a lot. and even "oooooooh on the tlc tip."

i like that ashlee simpson song. i hate myself.

"Toxic" by Britney Spears was a darn, darn catchy song.

yes!! god, what a fantastic song. "im a slave 4 u" is one of my favorite songs ever.
nsync came on the radio the other day and I ENJOYED IT. i love pop music that isnt trying to be anything else but pop music.

(Edited by rachel at 6:33 pm on Jul. 20, 2004)

was??

Okay okay, is. I just don't hear it much anymore.

I still hear it quite a bit, and I have to say that I really enjoy that song. I'm not really embarassed about it, though.

Yes, "Toxic" was off the chain. But I like Spears' new single, too - the ballad - with the really intense video. Come to think of it, I could probably fill up a whole CD with Spears songs that I like. "Lucky" might be my favorite.

Right on with the shameless pop music plug, Rachel. Especially because it's summer.

"Toxic" was rightly fantastic. I also like "Come on Over" by Christina Augilera.

I like Justin Timberlake.

The only reason these are even tolerable is bcause BT produced them. If you dont know who BT is, he is like the neptunes sort of, he was a huge superstarDJ turned laptop symphonist & producer. If you liked those songs youll like his albums.

I guess I could be embarassed for my love of electronic music, but i was high when I found it, so I have an excuse.

does the nanny theme song count?
I still have a little bit of love for that old canadian band the moffats..I think thats what they were called....?

(Edited by Amanda at 11:48 pm on Jul. 20, 2004)

Oh, "The Nanny" has a totally cute theme song. I like old Cher. "Gypsies, Tramps, and Thieves" is amazing.

Actually, my man, the Neptunes did write and produce "Slave." "Toxic" is BT, tho.

What happened to our fact checker?

(Edited by jamiecarroll at 1:22 am on Jul. 21, 2004)

Thanks, the two songs that get stuck in my head the most mentioned in one paragraph right before I try to go to sleep. I'll be playing "She was working in a bridal shop with gypsies, tramps & thieves" in my head over and over and over...

Ah yes. Emotional Technology was one of the best albums of 2003 that nobody listened to.

nothing i listen to embarasses me.

my bestfriend and i had the VIP hookup to the britney show at starwood, and we were pretty angry when she had to cancel.

i fucking love pop music

and i just bought a second copy of dangerously in love

"lonely boy" by andrew gold

Never be embarrassed to love the White Stripes...they're my all-time favorite band, no exaggeration. Sure, a lot of people jumped on the bandwagon, but that's dying down now. Fuck them, enjoy yourself!

I'm pretty embarassed about liking that Lil' Jon song "Get Low" as much as I do... To the window!!! To the wall!!!

don't be a wanker. there's nothing to be embarassed of there.

Japanese pop music.
I firckin love the way the girls sing all high-pitched and campy-like (think Judy and Mary). And it doesn't bother me if the lyrics are crappy, because I can't understand them. It's like how every Britney Spears song would be 10 times better if you didn't speak english...

I can't think of any music I listen to that I'm ashamed of.

If I listened to rap/hiphop or new country music, I'd be ashamed, but I don't.
