Inspired by a segment on Radio 4 today Guilty Pleasures

Whether it be R‘n B, Hip Hop, Rock, Indie, Drum ‘n Bass, et al, when it comes to music we all think our taste is by far the best and can’t understand why other people turn their noses up at our choice and prefer something else.

BUT there’s always that one track that you secretly love, the one that, when you’re in your car alone and it appears on the radio you turn up the volume and scream out the lyrics at the top of your voice with no feelings of guilt.

So, what is it? Which track guiltily gives you a buzz when it goes against ALL of your musical tastes?

I'm going for 'These Days' by Bon Jovi or 'Sweet Talkin Woman' by ELO Confused

Vienna by Ultravox - an oldie but goodie


House of Pain is cool, how can you class this as shameful!!!?!!

If that is classified as bad then my all time fave tune Voodoo People by the Prodigy would be too....but I think its cool, so I chose Vienna...

Great thread! In certain parts of the world I am known as the Disco Don, as result of my extensive knowledge of this genre. I do like all music but I guess my own guilty pleasure is

Gilbert O’ Sullivan – Get Down Shocked Rolling Eyes -

I sometimes find myself singing this in the shower and on Sunday they had a show about Pans People (the dance troupe that used to be on TOTP's in the 70's) and they featured this track! I remember it so well as a teenager growing up in the 70's....aaah the memories!

On the subject of Films...

Joe Esposito 'You're the Best' taken from 'The Karate Kid' - Total American Shite Rock however whenever I hear said tune the adrenelin starts flowing and I'm ready to take on any bloke who fancies himself as a bit of a Hard Case - In fact I'd wax him off (I said 'wax') and sand the floor with him Wink
