Songs you're embarassed to admit you like

Since I already had my dvd-talk man card revoked for my chest waxing question...what songs are you embarassed to admit you like?

Mine:
1. Man I Feel Like a Woman - Shania Twain
2. That don't impress me much - Shania
3. Let's hear it for the boy - Denise somebody
4. Heaven is a place on earth - Belinda Carlisle
5. 9 to 5 - Dolly Parton
6. Let the Sunshine In - from the Saturday Morning Cartoon CD
7. She Bop - Cyndi Lauper
8. True Colors - Cyndi (Not necessarily embarassed to admit I like it, but embarassed to admit that I almost cry when hear the song).

My music collection is dominated by metal...Iron Maiden, Megadeth, etc.

I used to hide my Spice Girls albums, but one day I just said "Fuck it".

And though it pains me to type this, a song I kinda like but will never ever admit (well, publicly at least) is "Sunglasses at Night" by Corey Hart. That one I take to the grave!

You just did!!

Anyway, coming from a straight guy, i would say "I know what boy's like" by "The Waitresses" pretty cool tune...

Speaking of corey hart i like his music, "big 80's guy" listen to "everything in my heart" wonderful tune.

Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart" - it's hard not to like a song that quotes Planet of the Apes so prominently.

Most of what I listen to is female artists. So people can't pick on me for that as I'm consistent in that regard.

Where I do lose points, and hang my head in shame, is that darn Toxic song by Britney. That thing is like musical crack. Once it gets into your ears, you are done for. Though I will say it was at least a remix version done by some well known dj. But still. I've prided myself on not liking any of the boy bands or pre-fab look I'm pretty "singers."

I say I hate "Sexy Back", but I think I was trying so hard to hate it, it flipped on me.

I'm far too old to be embarrassed over my taste in pop music.

I challenge anyone to truthfully say that they don't like "Fernando" by Abba.

I like some of their other songs quite a bit, though.

I can honestly say I don't care for Fernando. But I will say that I do enjoy many other Abba songs.

I'm not embarrassed to say that I love that song. Perhaps I should be?

I say Karma Chameleon by Culture Club. That song is pretty infectious by itself. The real question is, when you starting singing along to it, are you suppose to sound like a man or a woman?

Can't get you out of my head - Kylie Minogue

I love that song so much I bought the whole cd and it was actually pretty good. Mind you, I HATE 98% of Pop music.

Not at all.

ABBA had the mutant ability to write incredibly catchy and infectious tunes. That's why they're legends and that's why there will NEVER be another ABBA.
