I know deep down that I shouldn't like "I Should Be So Lucky" by Kylie Minogue so much but it's just come on the radio and I've found myself dancing around to it. "Reach" by S Club 7 is another.

Maybe I'm just uncool.

What's your favourite?

Christopher Cross - Ride like the wind and Arthur. Classic
Backstreet boys-i want it that way
Hall and Oates- you make my dreams come true (or anything by them really)

thegirlinthecar · 23/12/2016 21:32

Party in the USA - Miley Cyrus. The lyrics are atrocious but it's so catchy

MissWillaCather · 23/12/2016 21:34

Nickelback "Rockstar" 😳😳

"Genuinely don't understand why GnR or Rainbow would ever be 'guilty pleasure' songs. I quite like 'History' by 1D despite being a rock/metal fan but I'm not particularly bothered. I listen to loads of big haired glam metal music too without any guilt whatsoever."

Oh, I agree really - part of me is a rocker at heart ❤. But DH would tut tut. Grin

MissWillaCather · 23/12/2016 21:35

Can I just say though, James Taylor is NOT a guilty pleasure....

liz70 · 23/12/2016 21:39

"My Sharona"

How very dare you! That's a boss tune 🎵. Harrumph.

Africa - Toto. I fucking NAIL that in the car

Rock Me Amadeus - Falco

This one's on my secret list too, along with Suit by Boom Bap Pow....

Which does seem rather at odds with all the metal I listen to Grin

WashBasketsAreUs · 23/12/2016 21:50

Ooh many of my favourites here.

American Authors - Best day of my life (Or if you're trying to Google the song cos you can't remember who it's by- Best years of our lives by Modern Romance comes close!)
Only way is up-Yazoo
Perfect- Fairground attraction
Practically all of the 80's music (Wham, Rick Astley, Abba)
Ooh and Fleetwood Mac- Everywhere
Once I was dancing and singing in the car (as you do!) whilst waiting at traffic lights, can't remember what it was but I was listening to Gold, so an old one. The chap in the car next to me gave me a sitting ovation and my kids, in a rare moment of sibling agreement, all threatened to get out the car and walk home! Happy days!

The Safety Dance by Men Without Hats

Absolutely love this song!

Have you noticed that the video is like Gane of Thrones meets the Wicker Man? Xmas Grin

I'm what people would call a serious music fan...

...but I just love lying on the bed when DS is at his dads on a Saturday morning and belting out "Hit me baby one more time" by Britney.

I feel slightly soiled for admitting it.

My car song is "You are everything" by Marvin and Diana.

AgentCooper · 23/12/2016 22:51

I've had We Built This City (Starship) and A Spaceman Came Travelling (Chris de Burgh) on repeat all week. I have genuinely listened to no other songs as I've been battling my way through the walk to work in the rain!

Eevee77 · 23/12/2016 22:51

The video for The Safety Dance is fantastic isn't it?

I recommend that you check out the "literal version" on YouTube

Very funny Grin
