Whats your favorite artist you're embarassed to admit to?
What artist do you totally get into, but don't want anyone to know about.
I'd have to say 50 cent or Eminem... Why? I'm a 30 year old white guy who works for MS...

It's totally okay to like the big singles from the teen idol types; those songs are written by professionals who know how to make a tune stick in your head.
I get a lot of grief for liking wimpy folk music. Stuff like Donovan. And <A HREF="http://www.queenboys.com/">The Frogs</A>, of course.

^ Ditto. I do know what I "should" be embarrased to listen to by most peoples standards of listening. I listen to Barry Manilow, Billy Joel, Paul McCartney I can imagine some people would be like "WTF is this shit?!" You know what I'm talkin bout "Some ones knockin at the door...somebodies ringin the bell...do me a favor...open the door...and let em in" "HAAAAAAANDS ACROSS THE WATER (WATER!)" haha I love that shit. I also got into choral music when I joined choir back when I was 15. Like Phantom Of The Opera Shit like that. I'm not ashamed to admit to any of it though. I used to wake up my roomate to Phantom Of The Opera...that and Sugar by System Of A Down. The girl in Pinkie's avatuuuur is cute. Thought I'd bring that up...yeah..
Asta!!

Today, I don't have anyone that fits that catagory. Back when I was in college, though (1975-79), I bought several Olivia Newton-John albums. It made an odd fit in my collection of Zep, Grand Funk and then growing Beatles collection. I told folks it was for when I had ladies over, but I liked 'em. And the last time I played one (about three years ago), I still liked it.

It's like birthing children it's so painful to say...
Nancy Sinatra, Ashlee Simpson, the theme from Cheers, Yanni (if you tell ANYONE...), William Shatner, Eddie Murphy, LFO (but only because it's good to make out to), and anything techno, particularly Paul Oakenfold, DJ Tiesto, and Sasha and John Digweed. *opens eyes* Is it over? |

Willravel, Yanni rocks! His cd "Live at the Acropolis" is a fantastic piece of work.
I don't know about bands, but there are songs from certain groups that I might not be up front about. Example? Ah, lets see...Mmm Bop by Hanson. She's All I Ever Had by Ricky Martin. Duran Duran's Planet Earth and Careless Memories. I'll hush up now...

Andy Warhol.
I normally hate "pop art", but some of his stuff is pretty cool. Deep down I prefer Jean Michel Basquiat, but all my friends would give me a hard time of liking "crappy graffiti". Hang on... wait a sec... You do mean a real artist, not just some singer? :-) Mr Mephisto |

I've never heard any of her other songs, but I'm a sucka for Nena's "99 Luft Baloons." It starts off slow and girly, but gets kinda punky later on, but not too punky.

George Michael. His last 3 albums have had 1 or 2 shitty euro-dance-pop singles, but the rest of the discs are great jazzy songs that really show great musicianship and songwriting.

KISS (I hate the greed, ego and sell anything attitude of Gene Simmons) but the original band was good.
Other than that my taste in music I"m very open about.

However, although I'm not sure if this is exactly on-topic, if the radio at work ever plays Wham's "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go," I find myself humming it the rest of the day. (Insert tip of the hat to Derwood here.) Until I beat myself around the head and neck to make the music stop. |
