It's musical guilty pleasures time again!

Top this one:

I am currently listening to the Xanadu Soundtrack. I think "Magic" is a beautiful song and the ELO stuff is great.

Your turn!

Love it!

Maybe some of his more recent work, but most people/critics/etc. that I know consider him a great artist. Even if someone doesn't like his work I can't imagine them categorizing him as a guilty pleasure.

but I figured all the negative reviews I've heard directed at him might fit him in this category.

:shrug:

Yeah, he's sullied his legacy some, but nowhere near as much as many if not all other classic rock artists. At least he's remained adventurous and aged somewhat gracefully.

Bowie is awesome.

I love funky songs that are over-arranged and have strings in the background. Examples, "We Are Family" "Car Wash."

by Elton John, from the Lion King
sappy as all get-out but it makes my heart soar like an eagle.

Just a friend.

I love the soundtrack. "Suspended in Time" is just as nice.

For me: "Petula Clark's Greatest Hits". "This is My Song" is my favorite Pet Clark song. :-)

Satdurday Night!

And I don't care who knows!

I just spent the last 6 hours playing my guilty pleasures. Woked on Shapes of Things by the Yardbirds, Fortunate Son by Creedednce, My Generation by the Who, Roll Over Beethoven, by you know who, Hey Joe, the Hendrix version, Love made a Fool of You by Tommy James & the Shondells and some originals and other stuffff.

I think it's due for a revival. And "Just Between You And Me" is one of the first singles I ever bought.

"A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum."

"You're lovely, absolutely lovely ...
Who'd believe the loveliness of yoooouuuu ....
Winsome ... absolutely winsome ..."

Ahh, good times. And you must never tell anyone.
