Our Guilty Pleasures of Music, (because I have no shame)

I will admit without hesitation that I have bought some lame-ass CDs. And I would never, EVER let my friends know that I listened to some of this music.

- BUT -

Just now, a song popped into my head, off of a CD that I used to listen to a few years ago (that I've since sold) Now picture me, a hardened metalhead ready to stomp skulls and ride hard into battle with my mighty axe, and I used to listen to....

http://www.amazon.com/Hoobastank/dp/B00 ... 804&sr=1-2

And I tell you, it's STILL damn catchy!! Definitely giving off the Incubus-vibe, with some nice vocals and tunes. Now come on, don't leave me hangin', lets hear some embarrassing musical guilty pleasures.

(And don't fry me too hard, I was a naive freshman in HS)

Guilty pleasures?

Static-X, Slipknot, Todd Snider, Trivium, Sevendust, Marilyn Manson, Lordi, Jack Johnson, Incubus, Godsmack, Foo Fighters, Disturbed, Deadstar Assembly, Babylon Zoo, Bad Religion, 16 Horsepower.

...Course, I don't care about admitting my tastes, so it's not really 'guilty' pleasures. :P

Same goes for me, but the only thing i can think of that other people could consider a "guilty pleasure" is the fact that i love Christina Aguilera's last two albums (Stripped & Back to Basics)
most people dont see that coming from a guy who listenes to stuff like Masonna, Naked City, Sunn 0))), Mike Patton, Strapping/DTB etc... :lol:

I'll bite:

Some would call these "guilty pleasures", but I call them "things I listen to, just not as much as metal":

Winger

Kelly Clarkson

Gnarls Barkley

I don't feel any guilt or shame, but I certainly don't announce to everyone that I...

1) Own both Gwen Stefani solo albums and her live DVD, and they all rule.
2) Think every Girls Aloud single has been amazing
3) Really like the Madina Lake album 'From Them, Through Us, To You'

...and probably a few other things.


Good thing I haven't posted that on the internet! Oh, sh...

Korn is my only guilty pleasure, but only their first 4 albums, really. Anything else I'm not ashamed of

Wow, almost forgot that.

I don't really have any guilty pleasures, but the closest thing...

I'm totally obsessed with the musical RENT.
