That seems to be a pretty normal playlist. If those are your "guilty pleasures", should we assume your normal listening is black death speed metal?

You missed Here Comes Santa Claus.

Although not the same venue I watch Project Runway with my wife. That's what happens when you're with the same women 45 years and she has learned to watch football, basketball, hockey and golf. So I found myself looking at the gowns during the royal wedding.

Agree. At one point in my life, I used to feel guilty about liking some of these songs, but not anymore. Thanks to Pandora and equiv. I have realized my taste in music is all over the place. It is said that one of Tupac's favorite songs was Vincent. It's all good.

In the spirit of the thread, songs by the Osmond's, Partridge Family, Helen Reddy, Carpenters, qualify for my list.

It doesn't get any better than that. When I was a long haired 20 year old I could do one hell of a Pete Burns (RIP) impression signing that song.

"Kiss Me Deadly" - Lita Ford

[looks left....looks right] "Joey" and "What's Up?" by 4 Non Blonds...another volume crank

"Don't You Want Me Baby" by Human League

@storrsroars ...hat tip on "Drive". Great tune.

@UConnWingman ...hat tip on Chiliwack and Deisel!! But ..."Perfect Way"? Man card?

One more. I just think this is one of the greatest pop songs ever recorded. The way it starts mellow and builds and builds to the end. Perfect.

Bev Bivins was such a sixties cutie.

 
Everything from Survivor, especially the Rocky 4 soundtrack. Another classic from the Rocky 4 soundtrack is from John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band "Hearts on Fire." When I was a kid I always thought Springsteen sang the Eddie and the Cruisers track when it was really New England's Springsteen, John Cafferty...
 
Michael Jackson, “Beat It”. Daughter was taking a dance class, using that song, and had my stereo cranking, for hours a day, for many days. I grew to like it. Especially Eddie Van Halen’s riffs.

I can’t respond to this because I will quit my job to create an absolutely perfect top 100 list of my favorite guilty pleasures which would shame @champs99and04 in length.

You already have a solid head start.

Anyone else on my Joan of arc list on your top 100?
 
Thought I posted this morning. Well, world's biggest heartbreaker:

Patches- Clarence Carter

It’s pretty out there from my usual playlists. And Sly from Woodstock always inspires.

Screw Woodstock! His performance at Quigley Stadium in West Haven set the standard.:cool:

Ya know what? I’m getting the sense that you don’t like Miley, and that’s something I’m not prepared to deal with this early.

She probably belongs on the Joan of Arc list. Like the other ones, she'd probably sound better that way.
 
Here's a couple from my tween years that I can't help but sing at the top of my lungs.

Key Largo - Bertie Higgins
The Piña Colada Song - Rupert Holmes
