I'm home alone and I have a confession to make....

I like listening to Céline Dion. There I've said it.
I might even shut the curtains and mime a power ballad.
Please come share your guilty pleasures which surface when no witnesses exist, surely I'm not alone?

I twerk and rap along to songs about drugs, money, and murder. I'm a 50 year old white woman from Devon.

you are absolutely my vibe

@CarolDunne I'll join you in singing Bat out of Hell

Oh! I've just remembered...I've fallen in love with a pair of knee high, sparkly, Kurt Geiger boots. They're stupidly pricey but absolutely amazing & I keep telling everyone about them.

The girls went on (my) Vinted and bought me a pair of knee high, stilletto, sparkly boots & I love them. They will more than likely never leave the house on my feet, but they are so fun to put on, admire, dance about a bit in while trailing sparkles after me, then put away again!

Seryse Heart are my favourite band of all time. I often pretend I'm Ann Wilson on stage. Just wish I had something remotely resembling her voice! 🤣

Funkyslippers · 09/09/2023 20:44

PuppyMonkey the video to Wired For Sound is an absolute classic. Cliff roller skating 🤣🤣🤣

GigiAnnna · 09/09/2023 20:45

My playlist is all crap cheesy pop. Steps, Spice Girls and scraping the barrel with Adam Rickitt.

Bumblebee112 · 09/09/2023 20:57

Absolutely dying over the fact that these are all your guilty pleasures and the majority of them are just my daily life 😅😅😂

Every day is a kitchen party in this house 👏🏼 Celine, Westlife, Abba, most power ballads 😅 I’m a shit singer but I love it (unfortunately for everyone else 😅)

Think Twice is my jam 😉

It’s a pop culture highlight. Grin

I absolutely love Celina Dion with a passion!!! Her music gives me goosebumps

Mydogisagentleman · 09/09/2023 21:32

I am Nate and my DD is pink on just give me a reason.
If she isn't home (and she isn't often, she's at university) my long suffering husband has had to learn the words.
We're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again...

A neighbour where I used to live used to talk about Celine Dion all the time, but referred to her as Ceylon Dion, which I LOVED!

WandaWomblesaurus · 09/09/2023 21:36

When everyone is out I am Kate Bush.

BadHairBae · 09/09/2023 21:39

I listen to Missy Elliott full blast when I clean the house alone.

I have never told a soul about this (except DS who is 8MO, he won't grass me up 😉).

Hungrycaterpillarsmummy · 09/09/2023 21:40

Celine Dion is one of my all time favs. Seen her live twice -fantastic!

Chardonnay73 · 09/09/2023 21:42

Can I confess right here, right now that I thought the lyrics to Wired for Sound started with:
I like small people, I like tall people. Listen to music, they’re wired for sound 🤦‍♀️
Dh nearly wet himself laughing when he heard me singing this… how did I not know it was actually about speakers?!! 🙄

Chardonnay73 · 09/09/2023 21:44

And I thought he was very inclusive, you know, liking tall people and small people 🫣

FrogSplash · 09/09/2023 21:53

When I'm home alone I make a tray of roast potatoes, mini Yorkshire puddings and a dipping pot of gravy and eat the lot from a bowl.

Whichwhatnow · 09/09/2023 22:07

When I'm stressed at work (WFH) I will always put Daniel Bedingfield on (Gotta Get Thru This) and sing along angrily.

I used to do this all the time when DH was home but he started threatening divorce.

Whichwhatnow · 09/09/2023 22:08

I should clarify I don't like any of his other songs! I'm not THAT embarrassing

Iamtheonwandlonely · 09/09/2023 22:16

Not me ( I swear) but about 30 years ago I was in buying an album for my dp.
It was Barry Manilow and the guy behind the counter said I bet your mam will love this.
Told him it was for my dp who was about 22 at the time.
We had a good laugh and now I rob him randomly about it.

yellowflowerss · 09/09/2023 22:53

Sometimes I bang on some Whitney full blast and pretend I am performing to a crowd of people whilst I am supposed to be cleaning. I have nothing, greatest love of all and didn't we almost have it all are my personal faves. I don't know if it's considered a guilty pleasure as I think she was fabulous!
