I love the "Hairspray" soundtrack from the motion picture and one of the first songs that I checked out on Slacker was Britney's "Womanizer". Some of the songs on my iPhone are blamed on my kids if anyone notices.
96 Tears - ? and the Mysterians
Despite the keyboard riff being a 20lb slab of pure cheese, I simply adore this song
Tighten Up - Archie Bell and the Drells
I don't care what any of my Rock & Roll buds say, the bass line alone makes this worth the price of admission. I'd even play it onstage if somebody would set me up with a Really skinny tie and a pair of pointy-toe boots
Cash On Delivery - Spinal Tap
Laugh all you want, it's so bad that it's good
I've also definitely got a soft spot for 'Traditional' tunes that have been covered by otherwise Heavy bands, a good example being A Mother's Lament as done by Cream

Love that song. Lyrics weave drug references with affection and love.
A new one for me would be "Fear" by Lily Allen. Catchy!
What is wrong with these people who can't comprehend that some songs maybe embarrassing for them to listen too. These are the same people who say when asked "what kind of style is your music? Oh we don't fit into categories." Take the song "I Ran" by Flock of Seagulls. Tell me that you wouldn't chuckle if someone told you that they liked that song. That's unless you think cheezy 80's music is hip and cool. Also how can these people not think its strange for a 30 something too like Jonas Brothers??????
Peter Cetera had some solo tunes that I'm embarrased to say I like...Glory of Love, Next Time I Fall In Love w/Amy Grant...classics. Come to think of it, any of those old duets that Peabo Bryson did with Jennifer what's-her-name are ill too.
I am NOT a Madonna fan by any stretch, yet I find myself oddly liking her cover of Peggy Lee's "Fever", very sexy groove.
sure it'd be "strange," but being embarassed about BEING YOURSELF is really lame and indicates some sort of self-esteem issues.
I turn up Brian Adams in the car when it comes on the radio. I live close to the canadian border - so I pick up stations with it oon all the time. The songs are just so darn catchy...I can't help myself.
I can't stop myself: I listen to this stupid bit of tripe every day.I love it. It's the catchiest friggin' thing I've heard in years. Forgive me, Billy, Jaco, Vic, Stanley, etc.! I don't even think there's BASS on it!

I'll never actually post this. It's too humiliating. And the internet is forever.
