We've all got them. Whether its a Boyz II Men/Ace of Base/La Bouche mixed tape you kept from Middle School, a Rhapsody CD hidden in the deepest corners of your glove box or a handful of Journey mp3s stashed away in your ipod, you listen to music in your own privacy that would make everyone who knows you cringe. This is an opportunity to purge your conscience and come clean, with relative anonymity. I urge you to take it.


I love 60s lounge music more than any other music in the world.
Rupert Holmes' 1974, 75 and 76 albums. I know all the songs by heart and even named my dog after one of his songs. I flip out whenever I hear them on them radio or in stores.
Despite hating it as a child, I now love the Top Gun soundtrack and routinely speed to "Danger Zone" by Kenny Loggins.
I know the entire lyrics to "Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?" and can sing it in harmony.
I'm growing fond of Death Metal, because its f*cking hilarious.

well i have a huge collection of new wave cds and cassetes of artist like kim wilde, the human league, gary numan, adam and the ants, ultravox and aha.

and some times i realy likes to listen to their music, i feel kinda guilty when i listen to 80s music from toto or r.e.o. speedwagon.

from the 90s i have some music from the german rave/ techno stadium band scooter. i always liked their early hits hyper hyper, move your ass and back in the uk. but after their first album they changed from underground rave/techno to be the most comercial techno group from europe.

Psh death metal isn't funny. Power metal is, and so is amercian metal <_< Stright forward death metal is pretty funny too.

Umm I listen to a few things my friends like but find it odd that someone with metal tastes like me listen to.
Devil May Cry soundtracks
Zone Of The Enders soundtracks
No Fun At All *Swedish punk rock band*
And I like a few Powerman 5000 songs

Yeah that's it haha

tears for fear with their debut album the hurting is as true classic.
both mad world and pale shelter is on it. its more cold, darker than most of the other simular new wave acts.

Well, I primarilly consider myself a Jpop/Jrock/gaming/80's music/goth type of person, so basically you could say I'm public target no. 1 for ridicule in public with my music.

Well, really, I don't care that much. Just to prove it, I once walked into a mall singing Kojima Mayumi's Hatsukoi, and MC Hammer Can't Touch This to freak people out.

"Going with the flow, it is said if you can't groove to this then you probobly are dead, so wave your hands in the air, bust a few moves, run your fingers through your hair..."

Yeah, that turned a few heads. :lol:

I get ridiclue fo rmy music a lot around here, so if someone dosen't like it, I'll just start singing it. :D

Katy Rose
REM
Disturbed's first album (Lot's of cool guitar work on it)
Journey
Third Eye Blind
Speena (a not very popular Jrock girl band)

My bandmates/friends and I drove back from the studio today. Blasting Van Halen, Thin Lizzy and the Team America theme out of the open windows.

Now we feel like real men.

I welcome the odd looks and head turnings. I like to roll the windows down, blast the J-Pop while at red lights, and see if anyone notices. Sometimes I'll drive by some pedestrian, and they hear the subwoofer going nuts, so they're expecting rap or something. Dead wrong. I'm not afraid of playing my music in public.

I do have the new 50 Cent CD.......what?

My friend did try putting on some J-Pop, one pseudo-rock track seemed okay. The other we made him skip quickly. Then he put on a generic punk-sounding track he said was from Sonic Adventure 2.
