Guilty pleasures

Torej Zal Oprosti mi Pogresam te

.. I have all long players from Dido.

I also love to listen to Rammstein.

And to classical. Tchaikovsky's 1812 just rocks! The finale with the cannons .. awesome. Beethoven also has some really great stuff.

Pop-wise .. hmm I do like the music of Madonna and Lady Gaga, even so they're plain crazy people.

Also, I normally don't put any of my japanese music in a playlist of a party or simple friend gathering. There are a few exceptions, though. The "Bad apple" from Touhou and some nice rock songs like The Pillows.

Guilty pleasures because; while I'm not ashamed of my music preferences, but depending on the people you talk to conversations get awkward easily XD And since I pretty much listen to all genres at least a little, I just have to have music in my collection other raise their eyebrows over. It's not a big deal, though.

My mother still can't get over me liking classic. Whenever she hears me listening to it she gives me a look of disbelief and asks shocked "Seriously?! That's not music! <_<". She's more of a hard rocker.

Spoiler for music:

I like Phil Collins...there! I said it!

why do you care what people think about what YOU like to listen too ?

[SilverSyko]

I like some incredibly crude and hardcore bands like Tenacious D or Mastodon, which might be considered normal for my gender (male) and age group.

But I also like some songs on the complete opposite of the spectrum. Most notable ones are "My Heart Will Go On" and "The Prayer" by Celine Dion.

But with me it's not really certain bands I like, but rather I just pick out songs from all over the music industry that sound catchy and memorable to me when I hear them. While I do admit I would embarrased of listening to a song that wouldn't appear to suit me in a public place without headphones, I find my vast tastes over genre to be a good thing personally.

Well, that's more along the lines of good memories rather than a guilty pleasure in my case xD I mean I was also hit by the Boys Band trend 13-14 years ago, my favorite has always been Boyzone, everytime I hear of them, my fangirling spirit always resurfaces
I'm really saddened by Stephen's leave...R.I.P. Stephen you will always be remembered by your fans.

I love many of their songs, and particularly this Tracy Chapman cover:

Boyzone - Baby Can I Hold You

[christinemarie]

When the going gets tough the tough gets going is one of my favorites that also includes the revival version of You Need Me.

[Hellychan]

Yup You Needed Me will always stay as beautiful as ever

Boyzone - You Needed Me

[Zu Ra]

This again but the acoutic version lyrics are times biographical .

[Zu Ra]

Can't Take My Eyes Off You


You're just too good to be true
I can't take my eyes off you
You feel like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
I can't take my eyes off you


Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak
So darling feel like I feel
And I don't have to know if it's real
You're just too good to be true
I can't take my eyes off you


I love you baby
And if it's quite all right
I need you baby to warm a lonely night
I love you baby
Trust in me when I say

Oh pretty baby
Don't bring me down, I pray
Oh pretty baby
Now that I've found you stay
So let me love you baby
Let me love you

For the 2000s, anything by Mika, he is just so FABULOUS.

One of the most distracting music video of the 2000s decade


For the 1990s

For the 1980s

1970s madness

[ash0ka]

I'm not ashamed of anything I listen to, but I've noticed a bit of disapproval for:
Spice Girls (I'm a guy and for some reason, people find it unacceptable that I like them.)
Scissor Sisters (same reason as Spice Girls)
and funnily enough, the person above me mentioned, Mika.

I'm a dude who listens to "gay" music. I love it though. It's all upbeat and fun.

[Flame-X]

Spoiler for I actually somewhat like this song:

...

[Zu Ra]

HIM - For You


In the grace of your love I writhe, writhe in pain
In 666 ways I love you and I hope you feel the same

I'm for you I'm for you I'm for you

I'm killing myself for your love and again all is lost
In 777 ways I love you 'til my death do us apart


I'm for you - and I'm dying for your love
I'm for you - and my heaven is wherever you are
I'm for you - and I'm dying for your love
I'm for you - and my heaven is wherever you are

In 666 ways I love you And my heaven is wherever you are
I'm here for you - I am here for you

More guilty pleasures from the past

The 1990s, again

I blame my cousin for listening to it all the fcking time during my summer holidays back in the 1990s

Remember? I am usually a metalhead at heart.

More 1980s

Not safe for Asuki to be youtube embedded

1970s I think

Without You


What if I walked without you?
What if I ran without you?
What if I stand without you?
I could not go on

What if I lived without you?
What if I loved without you?
What if I died without you?
I could not go on



You left my side tonight
And I, I just don't feel right
But I, I can't let you out of sight
Without you I'm no one, I'm nothing at all

What if I lie without you?
And what if I rise without you?
And what if I dream without you?
I could not go on



You left my side tonight
And I, I just don't feel right
But I, I can't let you out of sight
Without you I'm no one, I'm nothing at all
Nothing at all

[ZGoten]

It's so ridiculous, yet somehow awesome and addicting. :O

[Zu Ra]

Bury me Deep inside your Heart


Let me wake up in your arms
Hear you say it's not alright
Let me be self dead and gone
So far away from life
Close my eyes
Hold me tight
And bury me deep inside your heart



All I ever wanted was you, my love
You... all I ever wanted is you, my love
Your're all I ever wanted, just you

Let me never see the sun
And never see your smile
Let us be so dead and so gone
So far away from life
Just close my eyes
Hold me tight
And bury me deep inside your heart



All I ever wanted was you, my love
You... all I ever wanted is you, my love
That's the way it's always been
My heart stops beating only for you Baby
Only for your loving

All I ever wanted was you, my love
You... all I ever wanted is you, my love
