Songs you can't understand why you like
We all have them, favorite songs from bands that you normally wouldn't listen to, but for some reason you can't get enough of a particular song. For me it is Dishwalla's 'Counting Blue Cars'. I could listen to that all day, yet they are not the type of band I gravitate to.
What's yours? |

I think (Hit Me) Baby One More Time is one heck of a song, but, other than as a sex toy, I have no use for Brittney Spears or girlie Pop in general.

There are quite a few I can't understand why I like including...
The ENTIRE cd "Let Go" by Avril Lavigne there are a couple Spice Girl songs a couple Mandy Moore songs some Jessica Simpson some Britney Spears... I can't explain it. I guess they're popular for a reason, but I'm not really into "pop" music, but I like those songs... weird

yeah, i really dig maroon 5's radio song.. "harder to breathe" or whatever. i saw them live and didn't like them toooo well. thought he sounded too much like jamiroquai.
i'd have to say "ash to ash" by loudermilk though. it's a really pretty song but i'm not into their other music at all. mediocre at best.

Oh I've often asked myself this kind of question. I know that this stuff is supposed to suck, but I just like listening to it. Its like violence in a way, I know I'm not supposed to enjoy watching it, but some of it is pretty fucking cool. Some of my list goes as such:
Avril's "Let Go" cd, yes the whole thing, she just writes some catchy melodies Two T.A.T.U songs "I Think We're Alone Now" by Tiffany A few Winger songs Some Christina Aguilera Shania Twain It basically comes down to the fact that I find all of these songs really catchy and I like the melodies. And everyone always has a song or group that they like but might not admit to, its natural.

The Grateful Dead's "Touch of Grey"--hate the band, love the song
Lots of stuff by Poison--in theory I should loathe them, but with the eighties metal revival in full swing I've been hearing them a lot lately, and they had some great songs "Waterfalls" by TLC |

Mine is the No Doubt cover of 'It's My Life'. I hated the original version, and I don't care much for No Doubt, but whenever that song comes on the radio, I seem to start rockin'. |
