Prince.

oliegirl · 04-08-2005, 07:15 PM

Anything 80's...especially Debbie Gibson and bubble gum pop of that era...

There is a horrible CD from a Disney created band called Steps that I am totally addicted to.

sovereignstar · 04-08-2005, 07:15 PM

Linkin Park, although I'm not certain why I'm ashamed.

Eaglesfan27 · 04-08-2005, 08:16 PM

Sarah McLachlan. I took Ms. Eaglesfan to one of her concerts for her Birthday and ended up really liking her music. Now, I own all of her CD's.

BYU 14 · 04-08-2005, 08:53 PM

Air Supply and Warren Zevon.....and they both go way against my usual tastes...........................but it gets worse.

to really get to the bottom of the Pop barrel, I was really into the Knack back in the day. I had "Get the Knack" hidden behind my Aerosmith, Nazereth, Thin Lizzy and Cheap Trick albums when it first came out, argh!!!

digamma · 04-08-2005, 09:04 PM

I'm not sure if this really fits in this thread or not, but an apparently straight (he's married) co-worker admitted at lunch yesterday that the only concert he's ever attended (he's 33) is a George Michael show.

digamma · 04-08-2005, 09:04 PM

dola...
and for me, I guess it'd be Ashlee Simpson.

Critch · 04-08-2005, 09:07 PM

Rod Stewart.

Pyser · 04-08-2005, 09:09 PM

the new kelly clarkson stuff.

Bearcat729 · 04-08-2005, 09:10 PM

I've only seen 4 concerts in my life

the one I don't like to admit is I saw the Monkees, Herman's Hermits and Gary Puckett and the Union Gap in Cleveland when I was 6 or 7.

I can't believe I liked the Monkees.

Ksyrup · 04-08-2005, 09:30 PM

I'm not ashamed of any artist I like. Now, you might be ashamed of some of the artists I like, and vice versa, but that's not the question...

Calis · 04-08-2005, 09:32 PM

I can't imagine being ashamed of liking Prince, the man is a genius...and he rocks.

I have to second Air Supply though, it's the first band that popped into my mind when I heard the question.

Too many others, best left unknown..

I think another good question is bands you'r ashamed to dislike, I can think of more of those.

Fonzie · 04-08-2005, 09:44 PM

Hall & Oates
ABBA
Journey

Draft Dodger · 04-08-2005, 10:23 PM

probably Kylie Minogue

MikeVick7 · 04-08-2005, 10:37 PM

Wow - I saw that tour too - at Great Adventure, NJ. What year was that? (mid-eighties?) I was totally into the Monkees around then too. But that's not what I'm ashamed of.

What I am ashamed of is that I was into Peter Cetera back in the karate kid days. "I am a man who will fight for your honor. I'll be the heeeerroo you're dreaming of..."

I'm surprised that my firends have never noticed how many gay acts I have in my CD collection. I'm currently watching/listening to Erasure's DVD with their 35 videos on it. I love Pet Shop Boys (my 2nd fav band). George Michael CDs? Check. There's been rumors about a member of Depeche Mode (my fav band). Of couse, Air Supply is gayer than a rainbow. Etc. If the guys I play Magic and D&D with ever realized the sheer amount of gay artists I have they'd rib me about it for six months straight.

Exactly. I'm not ashamed at all. If the rest of the world hates a musician I like, that's their problem, not mine.

I hear a song or artist I like, I don't have an issue with telling anyone that I like it.

Well if the link I found on Google is right it was 1986 which sounds about right.

Nothing to be ashamed of, mate. I've seen her 7 or 8 times in concert. Amazing voice. Don't be ashamed just because she's a chick.

thealmighty · 04-09-2005, 11:45 PM

REO Speedwagon

Never be ashamed of ABBA...I saw the play with all the ABBA songs when I was in Vegas. It was really good (can't remember the title at this time, but it will come to me in a more lucid moment).
