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

[BlackAmericanoNoSugar]

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).

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).

I forgot Angry Anderson Suddenly and you can even get it with videos of Scott and Charlene's wedding from Neighbours.

I'd rather Jack- Reynolds girls
Ooh stick you - Daphne and Celeste
Cleopatra comin atcha - Cleopatra
Best of the Dooleys

One Night in Bangkok - Murray Head

Dragostea din Tei 😁

That Reynolds Girl's song reminds me of The Only Way is Up by Yazz which will now be added to the Guilty Pleasures playlist.

I have just watched the Yazz video on YouTube, I had totally forgotten the cycling shorts with bomber jacket and braces over the top combo.

Anyone mentioned Boom Shak-A-Lak by Apache Indian yet?

'Carrie' and 'wired for sound' by Cliff Richard, and love the ESP.album by Bee Gees! Do I win?

Most of my songs are pure pop so pretty much all of them?!

Mambo No. 5
Britney Spears back catalogue
Keep Me Hangin' On - Kim Wilde
Lots of Stock, Aiken and Waterman

Oh yes!

Chris de burgh - missing you (my mum always used to play it in the car on the way to Tesco when I was little)

Cleopatra comin atcha - Cleopatra

I was giving that one a glorious acapella rendition just the other day and I don't even know what made me think of it!

When will I see you again? The Three Degrees
I can't give you anything The Stylistics
Mississippi Pussycat
Sad Sweet Dreamer Sweet Sensation

Ooh, thought of more...

Silver Lady - David Soul

Joe Le Taxi - Vanessa Paradis. MIL is French and asked me if I had a favourite French song and she was

Copacabana
I'm so excited

I don't have guilty pleasures I love most of these songs mentioned proudly!

My cheesiest one is probably Uncle Kracker - Follow Me!

Blazin Squad, Flip Reverse. it's a terribly misogynistic song...

Also several Billie Piper and Samantha Mumba. Also Enya. The Craig David version of Lets Dance?

I'm stopping now as I'm definitely outing myself...

Silver Lady -David Soul
Hold me close - David Essex
Love is in the Air - John Paul Young
I’ve got the music in me - Kiki Dee

The 70s is my guilty pleasures golden era - memories of tunes heard on R2 while a child - ah, the memories.

Although I do love ol’ Tel I’m not going as far as the Floral Dance.

Can’t believe no one’s mentioned “Escape (the Pina Colada Song)” by Rupert Holmes.
That is one catchy slice of cheese!

@Peasweet - when I was newly qualified a member of sweet sensation kept asking me out and his chat up was that he used to be in that group (they pre-dated my birth) and he was very put off when I wasn’t impressed. Had never heard the song before but I can’t hear it now without laughing.

Oh and finally...

My cheese/cringe/ guilty pleasure playlist wouldn't be complete without "Bamboleo" and "Volare" by the Gipsy Kings!
