February 18, 200917 yr Yeah, I really dig that Lovesexy/whatever album. That and...uh...Robin Thicke. Okay, I didn't know who he was when I bought it, they were playing it in the store and I liked it. The end.
February 18, 200917 yr I dig some Michael Jackson from time to time. His songs have excellent groove and the man can dance like no other, though this is totally irrelevant.
February 18, 200917 yr YouTube - Black Ingvars - Mamma Mia (ABBA Cover) I almost closed it when I heard the intro to Smoke on the Water...thought it was the wrong clip. Just have to wait for it...
February 18, 200917 yr Natalie Portman's Shaved Head.... A truly limiting band name and doesn't get much positive press. I once requested them on the college radio before being hung up on as a prank caller. I really like confections off of "glistening pleasure". Oh ya, and daft punk.
March 15, 200917 yr It's my time to confess a few guilty pleasures of mine: - Beyonce. I know it's pop-dance crap, but I like her singing and can enjoy the groove of her tunes. Father forgive me for feeling good listening to her last album. Same goes for other of these pop divas like Aaliyah, Madonna or even the infamous Pussy Cat dolls - Amy Winehouse. I know her music is just yet another soul-pop act, the lyrics are only so so, mostly her despair for being different, and she's quite a made up product. However there's something in her voice and the way she sings that I find deeply emotional. Since Billie Holiday I've not found a singer that moves me that much for the sincere pain into her singing. I'm growing older I guess. - Supertramp. Oh yes, I love their four albums from Crisis, What Crisis? to Breakfast in America. Don't ask, while Crime of the Century might not be considered a bad one, I know the rest aren't that good, however they're the type of music that has it all for me and which I can enjoy on repeated listening as much as Pink Floyd, Beatles, Rollings or Led Zep. Something similar, but less intense, happens to me with Police (also Sting ) and Dire Straits. And if all that wasn't enough to deserve punishment, now the bomb: I like Phil Collins too. I love his "face value" Please be gentle
March 15, 200917 yr I listen to Alphaville and Modern talking.... 'nuff said... But damn, I can't help it, I enjoy their cheesy tunes soo much...
March 16, 200917 yr - Supertramp. Oh yes, I love their four albums from Crisis, What Crisis? to Breakfast in America. Don't ask, while Crime of the Century might not be considered a bad one, I know the rest aren't that good, however they're the type of music that has it all for me and which I can enjoy on repeated listening as much as Pink Floyd, Beatles, Rollings or Led Zep. Supertramp is awesome, just as good or better than Pink Floyd, Beatles, Rollings or Led Zep in my book . Especially Led Zep and late Floyd, cos I hate that stuff P.S. I like Pet Shop Boys, yeah throw tomatoes at me now
March 16, 200917 yr Nein! Warum? P.S. I like Pet Shop Boys, yeah throw tomatoes at me now I like 'em too. Don't feel guilty... In a west end town, a dead end world The east end boys and west end girls In a west end town, a dead end world The east end boys and west end girls West end girls West end girls Also... Break the window by the town hall Listen, the siren screams There in the distance, like a roll call Of all the suburban dreams Lets take a ride, and run with the dogs tonight In suburbia You cant hide, run with the dogs tonight In suburbia
March 16, 200917 yr I rock out to Crime of the Century every now and then. I might even listen to a bit of Phil Collins era Genesis
March 16, 200917 yr Crime of the Century is simply brilliant. x ... whatever we are up to, at this point -- I don't think Supertramp can be considered a guilty pleasure.
March 16, 200917 yr Guys, I'm glad you like Supertramp and don't think it's just "easy prog rock" for uneducated adults. Some of my friends think they are, hence my guilty pleasure liking them
March 16, 200917 yr Guys, I'm glad you like Supertramp and don't think it's just "easy prog rock" for uneducated adults. Some of my friends think they are, hence my guilty pleasure liking them I don't think personally it qualifies as prog rock, more like pop with progressive sensibilities. Nothing to be ashamed of though, they made some pretty good songs.
March 19, 200917 yr Bjork, Regina Spektor, Elvis Costello, some others I'm forgetting at the moment. I don't see how those really qualify as "guilty pleasures".
March 20, 200917 yr Really? The first two have bad sexual innuendo in almost every one of their songs which makes them seem desperate and sex-crazed, they both have weird ways of singing, and I don't think I even need to explain Elvis Costello's weird voice and weird dancing. I definitely prefer weird to just plain bad, though, so I guess that's what makes me listen to them from time to time. A good example of weird done good is Talking Heads.
