Early nineties rap-music. The likes of old-school Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, Public Enemy etc.

You think I'm joking.

Yeah, the moment you mention it as one of your favorite bands you can almost anticipate the reaction.

I've had that look many times.

I also like Spandau Ballet. I saw them live a few weeks back and they were absolutely brilliant!

I had a conversation like that with a friend a few weeks ago. It took awhile for said friend to actually understand that YES Stevie is "the girl" and YES Lindsey is "the bloke".

ALSO:

Vixen
Linda Ronstadt (from Stone Poneys up to her first "Canciones" album)
Alan Parsons Project
And, what the hell is wrong with Al Stewart?? He was GREAT! Year Of The Cat was by far his WORST album, yet it sold the most...hmmmm...says volumes about 70s music buying public, I think.

The entire 70's "progressive rock" genre:

Yes
Flash (w/ex-Yes guitarist Peter Banks)
Focus
Emerson, Lake & Palmer
early Genesis
Gentle Giant
King Crimson
Triumvirat
Starcastle
PFM
The Nice
Procol Harum
Curved Air
Daryl Way's Wolf
Camel
Nektar
among others

Ice Cube has a song called 'Smoke Some Weed', it's all good with me.

Guilty pleasures are relative, I've heard people class Fleetwood Mac as a guilty pleasure. I do tend to hide my Barbra Streisand, The Bangles and Reba McEntire collections though...

Hmm...well I used to own albums by both Michael Bolton and Celine Dion. While I do like them both, it just became too embarrassing to have them in my record collection and I gave the albums away (although funnily enough I gave my Celine Dion to my mother who recently gave them back to me after about 10 years )

My most "guilty" musical pleasure at the moment is probably Lily Allen

Not at all keen on Chris DeBurgh but different strokes and all that...

I have to agree that I don't really have musical guilt as such but I know what others would consider a guily pleasure...

Belinda Carlisle and Roxette! I love them!

Right, that's it...Demon, when I eventually get off my ass, save some cash from working and make my long desired trip to New Zealand we must meet up! We agree on so much on this board, haha! Alternatively you have a place to crash if you ever make it to Scotland!

Belinda is great, I even like the Real (1993) album that nobody else bothered to buy! It has Big Scary Animal and Lay Down Your Arms on it, brilliant!

One of my favourite latter Belinda songs is Always Breaking My Heart from A Woman and A Man (1996). I'd loved the song since it came out, along with In Too Deep, and when I finally bought that album a couple of years ago imagine my surprise that 2 of my guily pleasures combined... it was written by Per Gessle from Roxette! Wonderful, no wonder I like it so much!

She's recording a new album at the moment which is due out in February next year (so it's probably finished if on schedule), her autobiography is due out then too.

Fave Belinda song is probably Summer Rain and then Always Breaking My Heart.
Roxette: Fading Like A Flower (Every Time You Leave).

I love all the cheesey 80's stuff. Hair metal. 90's pop. But I think the one that really amuses people when I tell them is Hanson. I've loved them forever, they're great
