Guilty Pleasures

#1 Post by Radiophonic »

Whether it's in your record collection or on your iPod what are the songs you are embarrased to have?

Or songs you love but others would find surprising (being a cool Pet Shop Boys fan!)

I will own up to...

The Dooleys Greatest Hits
Latin for Lovers - Doris Day
Shadow Dancing - Andy Gibb
Village People - Live and Sleazy

Great topic ! :lol:

I have to admit, I love some incredibly cheesy Italo pop such as Den Harrow's Don't Break My Heart and Max Him's Lady Fantasy ! :oops: But would be too afraid to play them with the car windows down ... :wink:

I've got some glam rock - Queen, some boyband -Take That, some r'n b - R. Kelly, some oldies -Frank Sinatra and generally a playlist of mixed stuff such as Donna Summer, the Dandy Warhols, Dead or Alive, Blondie, Michael Jackson and the list goes on... :mrgreen:

Modern Talking for me too, especially Cheri Cheri Lady. I can`t tell you how popular these guys used to be in my country between 1986-1989... they still are in a way: here is Thomas Anders at the Golden Stag festival in Brasov - 2004: (Pet Shop Boys should also do at some point in the future this great festival)

If you're proud of your record selection then it doesn't matter. But you might have a Shakin' Stevens or a Right Said Fred record hidden away at the back of a cupboard. Or something odd (an old TV theme, say Miami Vice) on your iPod.
