I'm proud of my dorky play list.

Saturday Night by the Bay City Rollers.

Most of the Carpenters play list.

My Sharona.

My love of 2000s rock music. It's bad, yes I know, but damn if it doesn't make me feel 23 again.

Huh? Oasis is awesome.

Well...those two albums from the mid 1990s anyway.

Not really ashamed, but more of a song that doesn't really fit my other musical tastes:

Lola by The Kinks

One of the very few Billy Joel songs that I like is "Vienna."  I recently saw that has become some sort of anthem for Gen-Z women and I felt deeply ashamed.   :Embarrass:

We might be soul brothers. Belinda Carlisle was not Sam Fox, but I love that song. It hits all the right notes for a pop song.

I always find myself joining in the chorus lines of this. And sing them all wrong.  :blush:  :uffda:

I liked that song so much when it came out that I bought the album. And I thought every other song sucked  :lol:

Not the last time I would buy an album because I liked one song on it and regretted it later.

Not a song per se. I only listen to classical music. In that field, Canadian anthem. I love it musically.

I'll add John Parr's "St. Elmo's Fire" to the list.

I actually don't mind some country music.  In particular more like 90s / early 2000s country music.

I'm sure there must be some.
Cheesy 80s synth pop tracks perhaps.
And there is the occasional decent j pop song amidst the pain that is the genre.

These years I am impressed by a lot of 80's pop, stuff I spent most of the 80's hating.

Back in those days tons of very similar stuff would be quasi-forced on us. I mean sure we could turn off the radio or MTv and sit in silence I guess...

And talk? No way. Much rather see Agent Cooper in Twin Peaks or Axl Rose playing the piano singing "November rain".
