Songs You Shouldn't Like

Ever have a song that doesn't fit at all with your general taste in music but you like it anyhow? There is an Australian singer named Gabriella Cilmi whose song "Sweet About Me" doesn't fit my taste at all, but for some reason I like it. Odd.

"Black and Gold" by Sam Sparro. Not usually my type of music, but I like that song.....

Well, last album of Pink is not my kind of music, but I like it.
Celine Dion song... ahhhh forget it

I suppose these must be "guilty pleasures", as I understand the term.

My shouldn't like it but do music tastes are shaped by 3 hours of Nova a day (the Wrong Way Home) where you're pretty much guaranteed to hear the same songs as the day before (& the day before that, and the day before that, and the day before that....).

Black & Gold is OK. That Work It song goes all right. I actually liked that You Want a Piece of Me, Britany Spears song - good on her for taking the p*** out of herself.

it cracks me up listening to the music of past generations, and to think it was on an advert years and years ago.

I remember seeing him live on the old Tonight Show with Johnny Carson doing it.

Black & Gold - Sam Sparrow. It must be 3:12PM & I must be listening to Nova.

The Long Way Home...... not bad, but Ed just doesn't seem as funny without Tony and Armitage Shanks.

Agreed, but it's better than most of the tosh on radio.

What's this Sweet Home Alabama/Werewolves of London sort of cover that they've been playing lately?

Oh, & here's American Boy - I'll just mark that off my bingo sheet.

I heard Air Supply's 'Love and other bruises' on the radio the other day and found myself singing along - felt a little bit 'dirty' afterwards. It's not my taste at all - but I found it strangely catchy
