    Nice topic!

    My confession goes back to the 90's, when grunge, alternative rock and nu-metal reigned supreme. Country music was not done in most of my social circle but God did I love those tunes, still do... lol

    My first pop concert. Aged just 16. These gals were doing a tour of the UK. I thought they were incredible. Still love that Spectre wall of sound. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVb62XPxdsE

    None. Music is entertainment.
    Its like saying (to me) what wine are you ashamed to drink.

    The best wine is the wine you like to drink.

    The best music, is the music that you like to listen to.
    No stigma should be attached at all!

    (fyi - Wham - sometimes I just have to Jitterbug) :)

    Hahahahaha!

    Yes, we all have guilty pleasures, in music and film.

    Here are two of my guilty pleasures in film: A Nightmare on Elm Street 4 The Dream Master and Rocky IV (both aren't good films but they're fairly entertaining and I have a lot of nostalgia for them - I loved them as a kid growing up in the 80s and 90s).

    Here is one of my guilty pleasures in music (one of many) ...

    Anyone remember A Nightmare on Elm Street 2 Freddy's Revenge? If you do, you know what I'm talking about XD

    Roger Whittaker

    Marty Robbins

    Pretty much anything that was ever on the US TV show "Hee Haw"

    Basically, anything my parents listened to when I was a kid, which made me roll my eyes. Now, 40+ years later, it brings up powerful feelings of nostalgia.

    I don't think I particularly "like" it now, per se, but to hear things that you used to hear 20 million times a week 40 years ago, that you haven't heard for 30-40 years, kind of brings back the whole experience of being a kid again, at least for the 3-4 minutes the song lasts. It's a bit of a rush.

    Here's another guilty pleasure ...

    It's gay AF but I love the bass/beat. The original video was shot in Heaven, a gay nightclub in London. I always thought the blonde haired barmaid in the vid was gorgeous, the way she shaked her hips to the beat hypnotised me (e.g. @1 min 15 secs).

    And I love the little bit in the song starting @3 min 13 secs - I always thought that was great, for some reason.

    I also loved the way Holly Johnson (the lead singer) played with the little tiger - that was cute.

    I'm not gay, honest!!! XD

    Here's another blast from the past (from the 90s this time).

    Me and my mates used to listen to hardcore music (happy, jungle and techno) when I was about 15, 16 and 17.

    Here's a song from 1996. It mixes a happy hardcore tune with Blur's Girls and Boys.

    The vid also features a couple of cute dancers.

    Willie Nelson is great, I've only recently discovered him (you know people's names but haven't necessarily ever listened to them). This is fantastic:
