Songs you really shouldn't like, but secretly love.

[The Highlander]

That does remind me of their awfully catchy song...

I love that tune as well, I think it’s one of their best early songs.

[Hrw-Amen]

I think for me it has to be Mule Train, by Frankie Laine. It seems to be permenantly stuck in my head.

[simonr1978]

Its a fantastic track, why shouldn't you like it?

It's terrible! It's so cheesy it's almost unbelievable. It's like the equivilent to music of what the Flash Gordon movie was to cinema. But at the same time it has that same compulsive sing along/ watch along, car-crash type of quality to it that I just couldn't turn it off if I tried. There are moments in that song that make me physically cringe at how horribly cheesy they are, and yet in spite of that and even knowing the reaction in me that it'll cause, I can't help but turn up the volume and start drumming along to the beat on the steering wheel when it comes on.

[Wintermute]

And yet its from the same guy who was in Wall of Voodoo

[simonr1978]

That doesn't stop it from being a crime against music. It's bad. On every appreciable level, it's just bad.

But, at the same time, the instant I hear the words "I was a PFC on search patrol, huntin' Charlie down...", there's nothing that's going to stop me getting ready to loudly sing "Whoah-oh-oh-oh Camoflage!"

[Wintermute]

At least you didn't reply "who were Wall of Voodoo?"

[Lothlanathorian]

Who were Wall of Voodoo?






Also, though there is no music I 'secretly love' (I am not ashamed of my music, no matter what music it is), I will admit that I am a metal head, into Black/Death metal and have the complete t.A.T.u. discography.

I'm the same. I like music from many varied artists and genres.

[Lothlanathorian]

If it's good, it's good. To describe my iTunes as eclectic would be an understatement.

Rebecca Black - Friday... let's speak no more of this

[NixonAsADaemonPrince]

The two songs which spring to mind:

Where them girls at? By David Guetta ft Nicki Minaj and Flo Rida.

Absolutely awful, the lyrics make no sense, the singing can't really be described as such (Especially by Nickin Min**) and yet I still like it. Such a cheerful little ditty that I can't help but smile everytime I hear it.

Firework by Kate Perry.

The lyrics are truly dreadful, being so corny as to be totally ridiculous, what with "boom, boom, right to the moon, moon" or whatever it is. Again though, it's so upbeat that I find it enjoyable.

Can't...get...song...out...of...head...

I grew up in the 90's and very early 2000's. I have a sister 2 years older than me.
As such, my iTunes looks like I suffer from multiple personalities. Filled with punk, rock and a bit of indie stuff - but "Living la vida Loca" is one of my most played songs...

I love the whole Nothing But The Beat album!

[Codsticker]

Quite a few songs by No Doubt.

[NixonAsADaemonPrince]

I like quite a few, some of them don't quite catch me but it's certainly a very enjoyable album. I actually prefer the instrumental version, there's nothing like some Guetta dance tunes.

I have recently discovered the band Foxy Shazam and, so far, like everything I've heard.

Informer by Snow. I know every word.

Dragostea din-tei by O-Zone, I even went out and bought the cd single (hangs head in embarrassed shame!)
