Do you have a guilty pleasures playlist? What's the most embarrassing song?

I'm on my own in the house and I've been singing along to the playlist that I can only play out loud when alone. Only the dog knows the depths of cheese of this playlist (and now potentially millions of MN users, but you're imaginary whereas the dog is real and quite judgemental). Grin

I guess objectively the most embarrassing is Come on Eileen, but personally I am appalled that I have Nickleback, How You Remind Me, on the list. Nickleback is worse even than Mambo No 5 and Rock Me Amadeus (American version). Grin

Love me for a reason - The Osmonds
We will - Gilbert O'Sullivan

I'm not even remotely ashamed.

Piano Man is a great song. Nothing guilty about that.

I'm in my 50s and a secret fan of the Backstreet Boys! Smile

Oh Lori, a great song and not cringe at all in my book

WildRosie · 14/07/2020 23:18

Oh Lori has a great jazz groove. Fine song. Love the flute solo.

APJ1 · 14/07/2020 23:23

Dance Yourself Dizzy by Liquid Gold.

That “I’m a bitch, I’m a lover, I’m a child . I’m a mother” song.

Nothing wrong with that, top tune!

That's funny, I was thinking of posting that one but thought it was too obscure! Grin
