Music you are embarassed to like
 
As much as I am a fan of hard rock, rap, hip-hop, old school heavy metal, and old school punk, I have to admit I do have Fiona Apple in my music collection. I dig her thought provoking lyrics and her strong emotions conveyed. It isn't so much that I am embarassed to like her, but a lot of people are surprised to come across it among my CDs.

So who or what do you listen to that just sticks out like a sore thumb?

I'm actually a pretty big fan of some Simon and Garfunkel. They just harmonize so well, and the music is pretty chill, something I like in my music. I also fucking love 80's rock (think Flash FM on Vice City). I don't know what it is about it, but I always turn up the radio whenever some comes on.

Well, I suppose some people would make fun of me for liking Jennifer Love Hewitt's music. Normally I'm a classic rock ('60's through '80's) and classic country ('50's through '80's) fan. But, what can I say, I like Jennifer.

I think the Linkin Park/Jay-Z collaboration album is awesome.

Simon and Garfunkle kick ass.

I like Simon and Garfunkle too. But, I'm not embarassed by it.

my biggest guilty pleasure and one i love with a passion is...








Duran Duran. I still listen to their albums " Rio" and " Seven & Ragged tiger" at least twice a week.

I like that Cheers Theme song. (^-^)


Does that make me a bad person?

Pussycat Dolls

I'd probably be most embarrassed to admit that I like most of the 80's new wave stuff. And Neil Diamond. LOL.

Peter Mar 2, 2006 05:22 PM

Some people will laugh, but I really like the Cardigans. Yes, their music may be a bit too commercial at times, but they're just an awesome band. I must have listened to Gran Turisme thousands of times, even now.

Another small embarassement is anime or game music, since I tend to get weird looks when I turn up the volume too loud, so now I usually use headphones to listen to it. I've really haven't listened to a lot lately anyway.

Anyways, i'm into alot of rocky stuff, and heavy screamy metal so it's kinda weird that i still like listening to the good ol' boybands from the 90's such as Backstreet Boys and N*Sync. If i told my friends i would be so disowned

Jessykins Mar 2, 2006 05:29 PM

I secretly enjoy Shpongle, Sasha and other trancey sort of music. It's worse because I told all my friends I could never find artists who do that kind of music worth listening to.

Damn me.

Niekon Mar 2, 2006 05:31 PM

okay... everyone "embarassed" by liking stuff from the 80's... easy on the era, that's the stuff I grew up on.
Duran Duran... I'll admit I had the thin tie and lived by whatever album they had recently released.

But the one group that I hate to admit liking but own both albums (I think they only released two albums) would be Aqua. for some reason I like them and can't figure out for the life of me why... O_o

soulsteelgray Mar 2, 2006 05:43 PM

I'm usually embarassed to admit that I have quite a bit of fondness for the Spice Girls and the boy bands of the late 90's. Ahh, the simple days...

knkwzrd Mar 2, 2006 06:12 PM

Naughty By Nature.
I have to admit, I am down with O.P.P.

Iwata Mar 2, 2006 06:15 PM

Nice sig, you happen to catch the We Jame Econo doc? the Minutemen are the greatest band ever.

CloudNine Mar 2, 2006 06:25 PM

After much prodding by my friend and getting dragged to a concert by her, I will have to admit that I enjoy Hanson. She still yells at me when I wont admit that I like them.

Although a tad emo, they are actually very talented musicians. It's a shame that they will forever be in the shadow of stupid mmm bop was.

I did manage to see that, and yes. Yes they are.
Nice avatar yourself. Forever Changes is unstoppable.

I'm embarrassed to like a minimal amount of Eminem and like 4 other rap songs in the history of rap music. I'm also embarrassed to have hardcore VGM going when I'm not used to a person who is in the room.

Summonmaster Mar 2, 2006 09:06 PM

Embarrassed to have several songs like this on my list:

"Only Hope" by Mandy Moore - the piano has a VERY touching accompaniment
"Delux (Eurobeat Mix)" by Key A Kiss (Para Para Paradise) - 5 minutes of Jpopish girly stuff
"Sarabai! Happy Hen" from Azumanga Daioh: Chiyo Image Album - Get this song NOW. If you've seen Azumanga Daioh, you'll know Chiyo is a little girl, and having her sing this very childish sounding song will definitely generate cockeyed looks
"Mei Li De Jia Xiang" (Drummania) - I'd be branded as a Chinese wannabe if anyone heard me listening to this.
"So Fabulous, So Fierce" by Jocelyn Enriquez (DDR) - This freakout remix sounds like something used in a cardio class.
O Jiya (Drummania) - This hindi song adds to my list of foreign language songs. Anything not Japanese or English would be considered strange when people watch me listening.

Dark Nation Mar 2, 2006 09:09 PM

Generally for everyone that I know, they know that I like a lot of music, and so I don't usually get embarrased at anything, except for my family, if I have foreign-language music on... then I usually turn it down with a little red blush on my cheek :p

Helloween Mar 2, 2006 09:14 PM

I'm not embarassed by any of the music i like, i'm used to people not seeing eye to with me on music.

but the stuff that probably sticks out the most among Dream Theater, Helloween, Blind Guardian, Iced Earth etc, in my CD collection would probably The Crash Test Dummies, Tanzwut, The White Stripes, and Weird Al. I normally keep my CDs in alphabetical order, so people get a bit surprised when they get near the end of the line.

On my computer a have a few Puhdys songs, some In Extremo, and Corvus Corax that i enjoy listening to. Also I was really into Ghoti Hook for along time, and you'll find alot of their stuff on my computer as well. I've been through alot.

Outlaw Mar 2, 2006 09:28 PM

Um....Good Charlotte :ashamed: ......Yeah, you herd me....even though I only own their first two albums. They stick out like a sore thumb in my collection that is made up mostly of Metallica, NIN, Godsmack, and other hard rock/metal bands.

jRev Mar 2, 2006 09:35 PM

I've got some Culture Club, Pointer Sisters and Spice Girls music that I never play with company present. Oh, and SAFETY DANCE!
