To ask you what your favourite 'guilty pleasure' songs are?

[MrsMattBomer]

Sort of inspired by the other thread, I want to know what your favourite guilty pleasure songs are.

Songs that you know are cheesy or awful, but you love them anyway for whatever reason.

Mine is "In the Mood for Dancing" by The Nolans. I BEGGED my mum to let me have a pair of tight pink lycra leggings but she said no probably because I was 10 I've never got over it!

Oops said the wrong Communards song, the one with Richard Coles dad dancing and that is my guilty pleasure is Never can say goodbye.

Ah yes, The Communards. I vaguely recall seeing them live although it might have been the Pet Shop Boys, my memory is shocking and I was pissed at the time.

Gary Glitter songs . He was a great showman, but unfortunately had a very dark side.

Ooh yes, Honey by Bobby Goldsborough. Naff but touching nonetheless. Sure tons more will emerge.........let me think.....

Return of the Mac.

Chesney Hawkes. The One and Only

Bobby Brown "Two can play that game". Reminds me of sweaty 90's nightclubs and getting smashed.

Not sure why these are "guilty pleasures". If you like a song, you like it. Who puts them in the category of not being acceptable to like without feeling like you shouldn't?

......and Lady in Red, C de Burgh! He was fantastic in concert aswell. Credit where credit is due.

MrsJudelaw -yes yes! Also Jump Around by house of pain. Reminds me of the sweaty night clubs and spilling beer on the way back from the bar because I kept bumping into people who were 'jumping around' to the song!

Unskinny Bop - Poison
Karma chameleon
Send me on my way - rusted root
I wanna dance with somebody - Whitney Cheesey goodness and helps me get through the housework quicker

I am Woman....hear me roar!!!!

Use it up and wear it out - Odyssey (or Pat & Mick)
Boys - Sabrina reminds me of Greek disco c.1988

This Is How We Do It!

Ooh also One For The Money by Horace Brown.

Anyone remember Dolce Vita by Ryan Paris?? I heard that belting out everywhere & every day on hol in Spain 1983!! Brought home my own vinyl copy (youngsters - go google vinyl)! Also the disco fave at the time. I know, disco gives my age away. But they weren't called nightclubs then!

The Lambada!! I was in the most amazing bar in York in the summer which is like a cocktail bar you would get in Benidorm and they played it for me!!! It wouldn't suit any other setting but I spun around with a German exchange student to it having the time of my life!!

Not a song per se, but I like listening to Bollywood music on the quiet!

Anything by country singer Dean Brody, especially Bring down the house, Bush party and Mountain Man because I fancy the pants off him and am ashamed to admit it

Lionel Ritchie- Dancing on the Ceiling

Starship - Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now. Reminds me of a major crush I had on a boy from Hull when I was a kid.

I don't have guilty pleasure songs. I like what I like.

Songs I like by people I usually loathe would come closest, so I give you:

• Toxic ~ Britney

• Objection (Tango) ~ Shakira

Oh Ma Fave Kind o Thread

lol, am stuck in the 70,s! All remind me of when I was wee (smile)

I have a theory that every man's guilty pleasure song is Living On a Prayer. All men will admit to liking it if you really push them.

I have yet to find the female equivalent, I thought it might be Shania Twain's Man I Feel Like a Woman but no one has even mentioned that yet. You're all too cool

Total Eclipse of the Heart: Bonnie Tyler
ISlands in the Stream: Kenny and Dolly
The one with EP and Barbara Dickson "isn't he good...oh so good...isn't he fine..oh so fine"
