Tokyo-Saint Posted 26 April, 2013 Share Posted 26 April, 2013 Good thread justice, I actually thought about posting it myself before, though it should really be in the muppet show. As I've got older, Ive got into loads of 'uncool' music. Biggest lameass one is Rihanna's album, last years one. That was decent. It also helps as she is naked in some of the videos. Saw Rizzle Kicks twice last year. They are so lame at one of the gigs James Cordon even got on stage with them. Had a good time though. Should be fine as long as I don't tell anyone, like on a forum or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dimond Geezer Posted 27 April, 2013 Share Posted 27 April, 2013 As someone bought up on rock music & the post punk of Blondie/Jam etc & I've got to confess to having a soft spot for the Pet Shop Boys (but keep it secret). Recently though I bought a Dusty Springfield greatest hits compo, there is some great stuff on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KelvinsRightGlove Posted 28 April, 2013 Share Posted 28 April, 2013 Was talking bout this song earlier for it, feel like I should hate myself for liking it, but I simply don't care. Star are Blind, by Paris Hilton. Will find a link later. On my phone on a train at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swannymere Posted 28 April, 2013 Share Posted 28 April, 2013 Recently though I bought a Dusty Springfield greatest hits compo, there is some great stuff on there. Get 'Dusty In Memphis' always in the top album of all time polls, Britain's best soul singer with the best 60's R'n'B musicians in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 28 April, 2013 Share Posted 28 April, 2013 Listening to radio on way home earlier and got thinking about guilty pleasure songs that you like that perhaps, being alpha males (or females ) we shouldn't. What's yours? As a result of being 15 in 1988 I enjoy the singles of the Pet Shop Boys and Erasure. And I bought the Power Rangers Theme when it was released as a single.

dubai_phil Posted 29 April, 2013 Share Posted 29 April, 2013 Rick Astley, Human League or Hot Chocolate. But only when driving. So I can make a horrible sing-a-long noises 'cos I can't even get close to any of the high notes. (Although embarrassingly while having had a couple too many on a flight once listening to best of the 80's on the inflight entertainment I did get the "Excuse me Sir - STFU" tap on the shoulder.)

thefunkygibbons Posted 29 April, 2013 Share Posted 29 April, 2013 My musical tastes are prog rock and prog metal Yet, my favourite song in not a 20 minutes prog epic it is Midnight train to Georgia by Gladys Knight and the Pips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JN9 Posted 29 April, 2013 Share Posted 29 April, 2013 When I was younger (can't remember exactly how old, probably about 8-10) I owned Crocodile Shoes (the album, not just the single) by Jimmy Nail and absolutely loved it. I re bought it a few years ago and still enjoy it (in private) from time to time... Same goes for (pretty much) anything by Meat Loaf... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamilton Saint Posted 30 April, 2013 Share Posted 30 April, 2013 As someone bought up on rock music & the post punk of Blondie/Jam etc & I've got to confess to having a soft spot for the Pet Shop Boys (but keep it secret). Recently though I bought a Dusty Springfield greatest hits compo, there is some great stuff on there. No guilt required there. She was great. As swannymere suggests, check out Dusty in Memphis (there's now an extended remastered version). It has her great single "Son of a Preacher Man" on there. God, I remember seeing her on TV when she was still in The Springfields (very early 60s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldskoolsi Posted 30 April, 2013 Share Posted 30 April, 2013 Theere's nothing guilty about Neil Diamond. As a fully paid up metaller, I own a lot of music I should be ashamed of (Wham, Duran Duran, Dolly Parton, Belinda Carlisle etc) but, I'm actually proud of my diverse tastes. That said, I was looking at a Phil Collins best of yesterday and thinking i should buy it as i like every song on it. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint boggy Posted 3 May, 2013 Share Posted 3 May, 2013 felt slightly sad the other day when, on my way home from work, I pumped up the volume on my car stereo and sang at the top of my lungs along to Dolly Parton's Jolene!!.............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint in Paradise Posted 3 May, 2013 Share Posted 3 May, 2013 I really love Cream, Pink Floyd, AC/DC, Led Zep and far too many more like them to mention. However I also really enjoy Nat King Cole, Neil Diamond, Judy Tzuke, Carol King and again too many others to list. My wife loves someone called Cliff Richard and also Elvis Presley, Can't stand either of them though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
