Embarrassing songs that you love.

Those three are all good songs, i didn't realize i liked so much 80s pop music.
Hey there you go, we can agree on something! Ripper tunes but I only play them when no one else is around. :)

Embarrisingly I quite like some of The Offspring stuff, much to the disdain of my mates.
offspring rock!
If you haven't belted this one out whilst under the influence at some stage in your life, can you honestly say you've truly lived?
Gotta love the crowd appreciation 1:41 also ;-)

I think you may have snuck into the lead Rabbits. I do have an LP by the proclaimers hiding in the shame file. Salt'n'Pepper by Snuffy is a close second in my books.

I've seen them a coupla times. Once with the Pogues in Dublin. Brilliant. First album is a wee ripper.
Actually, I saw this on SBS World Movies. Worthy.
That would've been an epic gig with the Pogues in Dublin. Lucky man.
Fuck I love the Pogues. Lucky to see them in Sydney in 2012....
Just look em in the eye and tell em Pogue Mahone.....
Settle gents
Rabbits may be nibbling on the prize. No we all remember that it wasn’t that bad in our youth
Excellent Seeds! They might've been flared at the bottom but were surely tight at the top!
Good on ya for getting this going by the way. Literally days before you started this thread I was listening to some "embarrassing" tunes on the headphones, thinking to myself, I should post these tunes in jest, but knowing it would only corrupt the Tunes thread :-)
Everyone's got an embarrassing, guilty pleasure thats for sure.
Embarrassing, yet Covid safe....

Coincidentally, I was listening to that in the car today Rabs (Hole not Miley Cyrus) It's a great track. Not embarrassing at all.
I reckon if you're gonna post an embarrassing song, you have to have it in your playlist.
Edit: When this one rolls around and I'm alone in the car I'll sing this loud and proud.
"Coincidentally, I was listening to that in the car today Rabs (Hole not Miley Cyrus) It's a great track. Not embarrassing at all."
I agree Zen. Great song. Its the Miley part that's embarrassing. I secretly love Miley and yes, she's in my playlist :-)
Two classics by Rabbits68 there, that second one was even on Blazing boards.
This songs still as good as the day it was released, actually the whole album rocks, yes i own it.
I thought there might have been more pre-teen cluelessness.... korn, greenday, third-generation southern California ska, LA hair metal, metalcore, Tohay Wilcox, strawberry alarm clock, Rolf Harris...
I was driving back from a surf check and these three popped up. Apart from the coolest of coolest tracks that I won't post here because they're just way too cool, there is the odd mildly embarrassing song that makes me even cooler because I'm not embarrassed to have them.
Showing your competitive streak again Zenny? Good on you, no shame, no pain. I do admit to liking a bit of Norah. Lovely voice.
No shame no gain Blackers. Driving home from lunch and these bad boys dropped.
Driving with me is like being buried in an easy listening radio station.
No shit, I actually have these songs in my playlist. Bucket loads of classical too. I guess roadtrips could be a little... trying.
Each to their own mate, if you are driving you get to choose the music. Good to see some diversity too. As for "being on the playlist" I'm a bit old school in that I tend to play music I have purchased; vinyl, CD or iTunes, so mostly what I post I "own". Shuffle is as advanced as I get.
BTW thanks for the correction, I realised after it went up but kind of liked the direction it went so left it.

I wasn't correcting you Blackers, I was just carrying on from your words.
I'm like you, no music subscriptions, the bulk of my music I own or have 'acquired' over the years.
A lot of the above embarrassing songs are actually pretty damn good.
Was in the surf today and thinking of this thread. Ear worm Tenterfield Saddler in my head most of the sesh.
Thought of other obscure? Aussie artists I like. Once again the vocals get me even in genres I don’t like
My horizons I’ve been working on my whole adult life. They are well expanded. It won’t ever show on the forums
No. Real life is more appealing and even then I couldn’t care less about trying to get myself noted. There’s an old western movie I love. The Big Country. I showed my boys as it’s better than Aesop’s fables. Basically seek achievements in life for self worth and self satisfaction. Achieving for the sake of stroking one’s ego is tiring and ends in emptiness
Finding Nemo works for me. But back on topic,…

time for the guru...
pommy pop-house produced a rich vein of cringe-worthy songs
A group I never got into but love this song and the clip. Know a bloke that hates it and I’d send him a link every birthday for years

I remember that one Chook. Was it really 1990?
it really has a sense of time and place...very nostalgic.
Ha ha! I've got that one Seeds, and Ms. Jackson too.
Connie B. would be foaming right now on that road trip.
Dub be good to me is a killer track- love it!
How can you forget?
Hey that OutKast was great Constance.
No way I could have named the other two but remember them well
What was the third one? It's geo-blocked for me here and I don't know how to get around it.
Ah The Big Country great movie
Once Upon a Time was awesome too. Morricone best of is on my iTunes. Dig it.
Always loved that from Dirty Harry. Never looked into the composer. Bit of info in the comments too on that one
Nice one
Now that’s way too good. Let’s get back on track. I’ve been waiting for someone to put up Johnny Farnham. Fuck I hate that guy and his music
Gotta be someone who digs him
S'Express- ha ha! There you go.
Morricone was a genius, a great loss. My wifey and I listen to bit of him on our road trips.
From a great movie.
Stanley Myers, another beautiful soundtrack.
Haha hilarious was thinking of that after my OutKast musings
That Once Upon a Time was great also

yeah, dub be good to me is a great track. bass sampled from guns of brixton saw beats international perform. met the band at a warehouse party and they put me on the door.
Anyone for Jesus Jones?....I thought not.
No judgment as that has crept into my last music thread. Now come on we all have songs we love that aren’t in are usual I’m so cool playlist.
