Guilty Pleasure Music

I have a lot of music that I consider "guilty pleasure" music or the music equivalent of candy, tasty but with no nutritional value. Weezer is a good example. And sure I've got "Spaced Out: The Best of William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy" just for chuckles.

But if we're talking about music that we are embarrassed to own, that's a different story. I own a Dolly Parton album. And I like it.

There, I said it. Don't judge me.
 
Um, OK since we're all "confessing" here... :o

Once in awhile I'll tune in to some early '80s New Wave / Euro pop stuff. Like A Flock of Seagulls. Or Kajagoogoo. Or Wham. Or Crowded House. Or Berlin.

At the time it was being produced, I could hardly stand it. But now I can really appreciate the songcraft and sense of style, FWIW...
