Songs You're Embarrassed to Admit U Like

*Warhorse* · 08-09-2009, 01:33 AM

I heard this on a radio talk show on Friday, and it was a huge hit with the audience. People calling in and admitting to liking songs that they wouldn't dare admit to their friends. The best was when a guy called up, proclaiming himself a hard core gangster rapper fan, but while he was embarrassed to admit it, he had a soft spot for Abba's Dancing Queen.

So, any of you out there find yourself liking songs that you are kind of embarrassed to admit to you friends?

The Funny Farm has to be tops for me.

That was trippy.

*Cure* · 08-09-2009, 09:16 PM

I'm not embarrassed to admit to whatever I like. That's dumb.

*gobo* · 08-09-2009, 09:28 PM

Ditto. .

**GK Punk** · 08-09-2009, 09:30 PM

I like some pretty stupid or embarassing stuff, but I tend to admit I like it.

Same here, so I'll just start posting awesome songs.

Awwww yeah. I love it.

I listen to Italo Disco and '80s Pop. If I started apologizing for what I like I wouldn't have much left.

That said, I definitely have my share of guilty pleasures (I kinda like that Goddamn Sonic Boom song from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I am not proud of this), but there isn't much I wouldn't honestly admit to liking. The funny thing about music is that even if it's absolutely terrible, a catchy tune is all it takes to enjoy it.

It should however be noted that Miley Cirus is an exception to this and that Stryker is a bad person.

Atleast I'm not a nazi. Like you.

That's right. I said it.

The politically correct term is "tolerantly challenged", you insensitive bastard.

*raphael_is_cool* · 08-10-2009, 04:47 PM

I'm not embarrassed, but I have a number of suspect likes. Time to trawl the music library...

I suspect a lot of these are from Vice City (and other GTA games. Does that make them legit?

), and some might feel they're great (albeit cheesy) songs.

I Ran (So Far Away) by A Flock of Seagulls
Any song by Ace of Base
Heat Of The Moment by Asia
Shine by Aswad
Kokomo by Beach Boys (obviously just that one song)
Sunglasses At Night by Corey Hart
Two Tickets To Paradise by Eddie Money
I Just Died In Your Arms Tonight by Cutting Crew
9 to 5 by Dolly Parton
A Little Respect by Erasure
The Final Countdown by Europe
She Drives Me Crazy by Fine Young Cannibals
Hey Jealousy by Gin Blossoms
Iris by Goo Goo Dolls
What Is Love by Haddaway
(Keep Feeling) Fascination by The Human League
Get Your Way by Jamie Cullum
Bette Davis Eyes by Kim Carnes
Golden Skans by Klaxons
My Sharona by The Knack (although I firmly believe this is a fantastic song and has an amazing solo)
Down Under by Men At Work
Safety Dance by Men Without Hats (obviously weren't at work and following health and safety

)
Give 'Em Hell Kid and Honey, This Mirror Ain't... by My Chemical Romance
Time To Dance by Panic at the Disco
Magic by Pilot
Talking In Your Sleep by The Romantics
The Look by Roxette
F.N.T. by Semisonic
Two Princes by Spin Doctors
Breakout by Swing Out Sister
Hold The Line by Toto
I Wanna Rock by Twisted Sister
Dancing With Tears In My Eyes - Ultravox

Heh. I have quite a few...

It's stupid, but I actually have recorded on a CD mix, the intro music the 80's cartoon Denver the Last Dinosaur. Of course, I'll blast it to embarrass the party that's in my truck, and it is funny to watch them pull their cowboy hats over their faces and sink below the windows.

Don't know why, but they seem to get mad when I play "I'm too Sexy" from Right Said Fred.

Huh? U got something against Ace of Base??? I love Angel Eyes, Everytime It Rains, and Donnie... Why be embarrased by them??

Asia is another awesome group and Kokomo is my fave Beach Boys song...but Im not embarrased to admit I like em.

I like almost all genre's of music... *shrugs*

*raphael_is_cool* · 08-12-2009, 06:23 PM

I didn't say I was embarrassed. Just that some people might find them suspect.

*XERO* · 08-12-2009, 08:24 PM

Hey, you're talking to a guy that liked *NSYNC.

**GK Punk** · 08-12-2009, 08:25 PM

Never admit to that.

*XERO* · 08-12-2009, 08:27 PM

No strings attached, huh, GK?

**GK Punk** · 08-12-2009, 08:34 PM

I don't even get that reference o_O

edit: Ah google, how I love you.
