Guilty pleasures

[Jester]

I actually kinda dig Nickelback

Spoiler:

's song Photograph.

Ooof. I actually own one of their records but I never listen to it. Whichever one they got "big" with, I can't remember off the top of my head. The one with "How You Remind Me" on it; I bought it when everyone else did.

They have a few good songs, they're just like, as produced and generic as rock music gets. I like that sometimes but some of their stuff gets old fast, and they're super-over-played. Like, even their better songs aren't THAT good that they deserve to be played as much as they are. They're not the sh*ts or anything but they are annoying.

Here's one: There's a very, very small number of Limp Bizkit songs that I like, and I love 'em. Like "Break Stuff" and "N2Gether Now". I have those two songs on a single and I officially have all the Limp Bizkit I'll ever need. They had a song called "Crack Addict" that was okay, too. On the whole, though, they're pretty awful. I'm not embarrassed to admit to much, but that's something I don't brag about, the fact I think there are two good Limp Bizkit songs.

I'm actually less-embarrassed to admit that I own four Belinda Carlisle CDs (Which, Trivia Fact, is four more than anyone not named Belinda Carlisle owns). Especially because they were free off a move job. I rarely turn down free CDs; it's gotta be straight-up crap.

Def Leppard's song of the same name is better

[Davetello]

Yeah, I like Backstreet Boys as well. Have done since "I Want It That Way". Some of their stuff is actually pretty good, and easily better than most of the usual girl and boy band stuff. There are some excellent songs on the albums Millennium and Never Gone.

Some of N'Sync's stuff was good as well but I dislike Timberlake. My favourite song of theirs would be either "I'll Never Stop" or "This I Promise You".

Bon Jovi are quite good as well. Lots of people say Bon Jovi are garbage so that's possibly a guilty pleasure.

Speaking of Nickelback. I don't like them, but this parody is kinda funny.

I guess I would add this as my guilty pleasure. I'll admit it's kinda horrible, but I find funny https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PCkvCPvDXk

Jon Bon Jovi is one of my favorite artists of all time. I'm more a fan of everything up to the year 2000, the last few albums seemed more like audition pieces for the Hall of Fame than anything, but on the whole his stuff is great.

Ya know My way or the Highway is awesome. Plus it will forever remind me of WrestleMania 17, or as I like to call it the best one.
Also like Dakken. Ya know that fringe 80's group that sang the Song Dream Warriors from the Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors movie.

I agree. Bon Jovi was one of the first bands that I started listening to and I still think they're one of the best bands ever. Songs like Livin' on a Player and It's My Life are timeless. I would never consider them to be a guilty pleasure. No other band has made songs like that.

I enjoy video game music and opera music. You should see the looks I get at work because of my odd combinations lol

Yeah, their earlier stuff was probably more classical rock, some of their later stuff became more poppy. I have heard lots of people insult the band so I wasn't sure whether they could be considered a guilty pleasure or not. I have heard some elitism regarding the band. Overall though I like their material.

I listened to the "Crossroads" album a lot as a boy. And here's a tale for you - the reason I slept through 9/11 is because I'd got up really early to go and buy a new Bon Jovi album, and when I came home I was still very tired. They must have released a new album around that time in Britain.

[Leo656]

I really like his two solo records, "Blaze of Glory" and "Destination Anywhere". The former album is more of a "hard country" sound since it was the soundtrack to Young Guns II (incidentally, Jon has said a few times this was his personal favorite record to have done), and the latter record experiments with a bunch of different sounds that wouldn't have fit right on a regular Bon Jovi album. Like this one, this is one of my favorite songs ever, especially the lyrics; his lyrics are always great, that's partly why I like him so much. It really sounds more like a Beatles or Oasis song with the way it's arranged. He just nails it though.


I don't think a lot of people heard that one because that record, to my recollection, didn't do so great.

[Don Gaddis]

I feel a little guilty whenever listening to anything by Dead or Alive...

Hmmm– or, on second thought, maybe a lot guilty.

[Lethal Lullaby]

As much as I don't like to admit, I do find myself listening to one song by Nicki Minaj called "Turn Me On." AND I do like Lil Wayne.

[shuriken]

I have recently been drawn to Grimes.
More of a rock, blues and hip hop guy but this synth pop chick just really does it for me. I just like it. Not sure if its a guilty pleasure or not but it's different from anything that I normally listen to.
Plus her little lisp ith the cuthest thing ever

Dude, I love video game music!

[TMNTFOREVA]

Guilty pleasures, Hmmm. Eminem, hands down. Every one thinks I'm this cutesy teenage girl who only listens to Katy Perry or Demi Lovato (Even though I like them),I really like Eminem. My favorite of his was his part in "Love th Way You Lie". It was so good, I still rap along when I hear it

[AT-Man]

I guess, as a known fan of noisy and violent music, my guilty pleasure could be any kind of monastery chanting music and overly happy teenage pop, but I don't feel any kind of shame listening to anything I like. I embrace diversity and like to show it.
