Musical guilty pleasures
- Thread starter brownie_bass

My guilty pleasures are - and I may as well just hand over my man card - "Single Ladies" and "Man! I Feel Like A Woman!" Just to be clear, it has nothing to do with the lyrical content!!! They're just really catchy, that's all!!! DON'T READ ANYTHING INTO IT!!!!!!
Oh yeah, I forgot about Beyonce and Shania Twain... If you have to hand in your man card you'll need to get in line behind me.

I don't have any one particular artist but there are some pop songs from the 70s that I enjoy listening to.
The former is a great song! The latter... uhhhh hahaha
Also a great song!
I am a fan of dance music(even though I'm a metal-head) and italo disco is one of my musical guilty pleasures along with 90s dance music. I became a fan of dance music when I was 16 and as much as I enjoy dance music from the 90s and the 2000s, I do enjoy listening to italo disco. here's one of my favorite songs.
Sweet love by Anita Baker and Through the fire - Chaka Khan;

I decided to revive this thread because it has the perfect title -- and also because the OP's "musical guilty pleasure" is the same as the one I wanted to bring up.
I play in a couple of classic-rock-style bands (one mostly originals), and the stuff I listen to tends toward jam-band (esp. Grateful Dead and various offshoots), prog rock (esp King Crimson and various offshoots), and a bunch of newer stuff that is totally off most people's radar. But recently I've developed a new "guilty pleasure": Miley Cyrus.
In small part this new guilty pleasure is a matter of coming to appreciate some of her popular songs, but mostly it's about stuff she's been doing more-or-less off the grid. Here's a Youtube playlist from her "Backyard Sessions" -- recorded in 2012 and 2015 -- with an intriguing collection of guests including Joan Jett, Melanie, and others. Her voice -- especially when she dips down into the lower register -- makes me weak in my knees:
