Guilty Pleasures

Solonor has put forth a challenge to fess up with my audio guilty pleasures. These are songs that one would not usually admit that they like much less that they, well, secretly... love. While Solonor claims not to own any of his songs... I own each of mine. And I play them on a regular basis when no one is around. Not only that, I sing them at the top of my lungs. Here then are my top 5 most embarrassing guilty pleasures. Feel free to spread the love.

Afternoon Delight - Starland Vocal Band

Lonely Boy - Andrew Gold

I Can See Clearly Now - Johnny Nash

Foot Loose - Kenny Loggins

More Than Words - Extreme

In other news:
I tend to like things neat and tidy (I'm sure the missus just spewed her beverage on her monitor), but yes, generally speaking, things should have a place. This blog, while having undergone a redesign just a mere 5 months ago has come to resemble my office. There are piles of crap everywhere. Bear with me while I attempt to do some triage and clean things up a bit. Some things might work, others not - que sera sera.

Hey! "I Can See Clearly Now" doesn't count. Who feels guilty about that? "Afternoon Delight"... now that's just wrong.

Hey -- I love "Afternoon Delight"!! If you can sing that, you can sing anything. Skyrockets in flight...

I am proud to say I know all the lyrics to "Afternoon Delight", and "I Can See Clearly".

I also know all the words to "The Burrito Song". In fact, I may have a bootleg recording somewhere in the "Do things still play?" cassette archives...

Oh my gawd Cyndi, not only do I have it in the archives, I just watched our video last week - Too friggin' funny. I'll keep a copy for the day when VH1 comes a-knocking to do your "Before They Were Stars" segment ;)

When you listen to/sing footloose -- do you do the dance? The Kevin Bacon dance?

WOW. I'd like to nominate Eludigal as the king of the non sequitors.

WHOO.

PS--I've played 'More Than Words' about six times since I got here. I love that damn dumb song.

eludigal -- you give sexually repressed sociopaths a bad name...

Posted by: LA at August 20, 2003 02:08 PM

Hmm... love the songs... but more importantly can we throw a gay bash for Eludigal? You know... send over some gay porn, maybe a singing/stripping telegram... something that really says "get over yourself already.."

I love these songs! Please don't tell anyone. Oh wait. Doh!

;P
