Guilty Pleasures

Postby Willit Run » Sat Feb 23, 2008 8:32 am

O.K., it's time to fess up!!!!  What music do you listen to behind the locked door or by yourself while driving in the car?  What is really buried deep in the files of you're computer or Ipod?

Everyone has Guilty Pleasures!!  What are yours??

I admit to listening to ABBA and The BEE GEE's!!

Of coarse I have to be in the mood!!

I mostly listen to The Who, C S N, Led Zepplin, Cream, etc......... you get the point!!

So, fess up!!!!!!! :)

I regulary switch to a radiostation where they air 80's music most of the time. I like how it takes me back to the years I was young and life was easy...  ;D

I do like staying alive by the Bee gees, most numbers of Abba, Almost everything by Michael Jackson in his Thriller-period, Alice Cooper, and some melodramatic songs from long gone years...  ;)

Haha, I listen to similiar music you listen, Cory. But I also listen to the Bee Gees sometimes... And I don't have to lock the door ;D I also listen to some 80s pop.


But one song that I listen sometimes and people wouldn't expect it is "Blue monday", by New Order... you know...

Most of the times I listen to one of my heavy metal MP3 discs when I am alone in the car. Listening to Slipknot, Metallica, Rammstein or System of a Down really get's me going for another day at work. Don't listen that much radio, too much talking and commercials.

Crash ;)

Like Foz I have very wide tastes & enjoy listening to all types of music providing it's performed well. I was never influenced by what other people think or restricted to categories (genres as they call them now ::)). If I like something it doesn't matter what they choose to call it.

PS. I'm not keen on the Bee Gees but do like a few of their records.

PPS. Kenny Everett DIY Bee Gees kit. -->  ;D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYaymcp2YlE&feature=related

edit: Oh, and ABBA I think it was really because of Agnetha Faltskog and Frida Lyngstad!!  ;)

I must admit they helped but their music has stood the test of time. How old were you in 1974? ABBA - Waterloo 1974 Eurovision Song Contest Brighton UK

I was seven in 1974! How old does that make James Blunt then seeing as he's just released a song about going clubbing in 1974?
Anyhow, we have a station on at work that plays loads of 60's and 70's stuff with a bit of 80's for good measure and I find I've started to listen to that in the car when I'm on my own. In the CD changer I've got stuff from Blondie, Dire Straits, Jeff Wayne's War of the World and Duran Duran. I also have Guns 'N Roses, Iron Maiden, Rainbow, Bon Jovi and AC/DC. The real

Confession time at the "V"... :-[ My guilty pleasures include:

Chas 'n Dave - Rabbit, The Sideboard Song, Ain't no Pleasing You.. Good old Spurs boys, reminds me of when I met them at White Hart Lane with my late Grandfather.

Boney M - Daddy Cool. When I became a father for the first time  ;D

ELO - Mr. Blue Sky. Uplifting summer tune

Guns and Roses - Paradise City. Was released when I first lived iin London, couldn't be further from the truth... I employed these alternative lyrics:
"Take me down to Cardboard City, where the air smells of p*ss and the blokes look sh*tty"  ;D

Many, many more.. too many to mention  :)
