What was so funny about the video?
You can't seee the image? Hmmm. its' up on my screen.The video is just funny because it's so dated.
The Bee Gees-- Was just singin' Lonely Days in the kitchen whilst washing the dishes... ![]()
Elton John-- Look beyond the cheese and he's a first-rate songwriter... ![]()
John Denver-- Never liked him until a fan sang Annie's Song in a rich baritone around the midnight campfire... ![]()
i'm with comrade s. on john denver backstreet boys--i want it that way (perfect) aqua--barbie girl (i own the CD single with the video on it) air supply--all out of love tatu--all the things she said journey--don't stop believing (i LOVE this song) lionel richie (his entire repertoire) faith hill--cry
any time i hear rainbow connection or puff the magic dragon i cry.
i also own the pete's dragon soundtrack.
and i've been obsessed with the musical 'annie' since 1980. when the film came out i bought a matching dress and wore it to school. i even had my hair permed like annie. i love everything about annie. she is my heroine.
I embarrass myself enough by liking Depeche Mode. But they're a bit more than just a guilty pleasure.

I'm with you on that Ronald. ABBA are treasures.
My guilty pleasure is sugary sweet 50's doo wop.

I'll take the abuse if anyone can name a better UK Tv composer of the last well how ever long TV been on air. (certainly isn't ronnie fuckin hazelhurst, and I said succesful so Ron G is out as well)
What's with being guilty about Daft Punk?
Although if your image was their latest album, we could cut you some slack...

I actually just bought single Enjoy The Silence, because it was $ 1. I couldn't resist, sorry!
Let me think of my guilty pleasures...

Yeah that was a good movie. I had VHS, too. Thinking of DVD now. Plus I have three rare promo singles I was paid with for my job when I worked in a music shop.

Mine would be too, it's truly awful.
But my mother would play this double album classic all time when I was a kid, and man I just loved it. Haven't heard it in years though.

Well, I honestly don't feel embarrassed for liking them, except for when others give me a hard time for liking them, saying they're a gay band and such.

The first thing that came into my head was John should stop hanging round with cunts when I read his post...
For me its...Well I don't really endorse guilt per say, as its a pretty useless emotion.....apparantly.

right. Daft Punk said to have influenced many. Pink Floyd/the Cars/ the Bee Gees/ everyone knows the words.-edit--asparagus tips, salty decent black olives and and artichoke hearts are also $ guilty pleasures.
The Eagles Fleetwood Mac (they are from Atherton FFS) Violent Femmes (come on, they have a song called Blister in the Sun!) and

So our paths have crossed, although perhaps not at the same time. Or were you the attractive stranger in the Avenger's boots and dark glasses sat nearby? ![]()

That was me! In fact I've still got my boots on right now, and the sunglasses are in my purse.
I'm feeling like I have no aches, post crash. I'm so glad too. I was beginning to think I would need to sue my dear friend for her reckless driving. Hahah....okay, maybe it was just a passing thought... ![]()
We probably have crossed paths. I usually wind up in the SJC airport at least 1-2 times a month. Yes, I do like traveling. ![]()
More like 1-2 times per year for me at SJC. I did fly home for Christmas...
And yes, I do like my travel too. ![]()

Can't say I give a shit about which three are singing them, I just genuinely like the songs!
Given the choice though, I'd go for the 2nd of their 3 line-ups, even though Mutya was a bit of a munter.
I own a Kylie cd. Dammit, I like 'can't get you out of my bed'...er...I mean head.
And don't actually _own_ a cd of their's, but I don't turn the radio/telly off when a Pink or Gwen Stefani or even Ms Imbruglia track comes on. Girls Aloud and Sugababes aren't bad either. How come uncool girl-pop is actually quite good these days while boy-bands are still as ghastly as ever? Or is it just a hormone thing? Spice Girls were always shite though.

I was going to say that my guilty pleasure is masturbating with a fist full of goose fat. But that would be crude.
I still stand by Betty Boo. She was incredible. And, yes, I'd still like to "do the do" with Betty. Goose fat and everything. "Where Are You Baby?" = pure pop genius. Deny it at your peril.

I still have that BettyBoo album here somewhere - reckon i still know all the lyrics to 'doin the do'. Bloody good album that was.

Although McDonald's french fries are the best, they are probably not the healthiest....ah, what the hell, life is too short.
Oh yeah, and Jamba Juice twice a week.
:D
Another guilty pleasure is gelato.
I could seriously eat gelato all day if I had an unlimited supply. My current favorite flavor is Zabaglione. Yummy yummy yummy. So good for the tummy.
Instead, I have an unlimited supply of soft drinks at work. Blech. Not the same.

kfc made me sick, the last time i was there, so i'll avoid them for awhile. yes, maccas chips are the best, but these days i don't get them either. i've found that moderate mcdonalds hamburger consumption, without fries does not actually make you fat.
Mine is Magnum P I. I've seen them all before and have got a fair few of the early episodes on DVD, but i'm now watching all over again on 'Men and Motors'.
I've loved it since being a little kid and Tom Selleck is definitely my number 1 man ![]()

If that is a guilty pleasure, then I must confess, my whole 7" collection (not sure I still have it) and 12" collections are populated with Top 30 from the late 80's...
That's because I discovered Depeche Mode and New Order ;)

I like this lot too (although I prefer the second lineup; I think Mutya left because she's just had a baby). As for your question, Snorri, listen to the second verse of "Ugly" and it'll all become clear.
ok Rick Astley's first cd (crap production-great voice!) kinda.....
Def Leppard esp. "Pour Some Sugar on Me" "Slippery When Wet" Bon Jovi (Wanted Dead or Alive)
in here this is heresy-80s Madonna (Like a Prayer) at my old job in my locker I had pics of Stone Roses, NO, Ian Curtis, Pink Floyd, PJ, The Clash etc....and Madonna
"The Joshua Tree" is my fave cd of all time
I don't mind Michael Buble (tho Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett are tons better)tho Buble is supposed to appeal to all the old yenta ladies
Peter, Paul & Mary (thanks MOM)
and of all things Justint Timberlake's "Justified" (I actually bought it) thought he was kinda cute for 3 seconds then came to my senes. Tho "Cry Me A River" is an ace tune
