This is on YouTube's main page right now. So funny

Cooties

Also this one has got to be classified as bad simply for its lyrics

Love Bites

Some samples

When you make love, do you look in the mirror?
Who do you think of, does he look like me?


umm....ew. Why is she looking in the mirror if she wants to be thinking of someone else? Wouldn't seeing the dude in the mirror interfere with her fantasy?

I don't wanna touch you too much baby
'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy
I know you think that love is the way you make it
So I don't wanna be there when you decide to break it


What sort of sex does this lady do that could possibly drive him insane? And what is she going to break?

I don't consider them "guilty" pleasure songs, but I was a Hanson fan for almost 10 years. Yeap, 10 years. Never thought they were brilliant musicians, but they have some great songs. The problem started when I realized it took them like forever to write a bunch of decent songs. Longer than any other band. And found out some TERRIBLE "left over" tracks. That's when I started to feel embarrased. Those songs are some of the worst songs I've ever heard.
Anyway, I got tired of their unprofessional attitude and their "it's all about the music, we're great artists if you give us a second look" mask. At least they used to make good songs back then... now they just act as if they did and all they care is finding out a new way to get money from their small fan base.

Ahh... bitterness hahaha. I don't feel like listening to Hanson anymore, but they were a big part of me for so long that I won't call them a guilty pleasure- even though I'm terribly embarrased by their recent behaviour and music xD.

One of my friends sang "Listen to Your Heart" at our choir show when we were in 10th grade! I recently found a pic and called her. We had a good laugh about it. She is in NYC now. She just did her first audiobook!

And Lauren, I got your back on the Spice Girls! I think they actually had some pretty catchy songs back in the day.

Ace of Base: Don't Turn Around , The Sign , All That She Wants

Spice Girls: Wannabe , Say You'll Be There , Goodbye

:P


Woot! I'm glad you got my back! My favorite Spice Girls tunes are probably Stop, 2 Become 1 (BTW, I should not have been listening to this song at this age... too dirty.), and Spice Up Your Life (Did I go see Spice World in the theatre? Heck yes!).

I love that you included Ace of Base, they were so cheesy! Ahem (sings): All that she wants is another baby! Wha?!

I thought of this one last night... I love singing this out loud in the car... don't hate me.

Hold My Hand - Hootie & the Blowfish

(when I was looking for the video on YT, I came across a video of the band on Sesame street. Apparently they used that song to teach kids to hold hand while crossing the street. Too funny.



Heck yeah! I had a Hootie & The Blowfish tape! It was one of the first tapes my parents ever bought me. That and REM Out of Time.

I was just reminiscing on Youtube. My favorite band before Travis was the British band BBMak back in the pre-teen days. Ever heard of them, Lauren? I don't really think they're a guilty pleasure, though. They were actually really good. *sigh* I miss them.

Ya know, I never liked her until I saw her open for JT. She put on quite a show and I can't deny it, the bitch has some pipes!

Oh...I <3 this song...don't know if it would be considered a guilty pleasure by some here. Maybe.

I think Gwen is cool as hell and she's beautiful. I went to her concert recently. She's good but I hate big stadium shows. I'll never go to one again.

Nikki, yours reminded me of one that is possibly worse than my O-Town one.

My street cred will go down, I'm sure

I am not really a fan but she definitely has some pipes. I remember seeing some news thing (ET or something like that) where they were showing the making of the Moulin Rogue video with her Christina A, Lil Kim, etc. It showed her siging it accapella and just busting it rock solid. I was very impressed.
