Don't know if it's a guilty pleasure being that they're very talented, but not really a "guy" thing to like: Norah Jones and Mazzy Star.

I guess for truly guilty pleasures: A song I liked way back when (but not sure about the album, because I never bought it) was Torn by Natalie Imbruglia. I also liked and owned Nelly Furtado's first album.

Also around that time (mid 90s), Mazzy Star reminds me of another band, Frente!...Angie Hart has a mesmerizing voice.

I'll have to check them out. Do you have a favorite song by them that you could post a youtube vid of?

She/they also did a cool rendition of Bizarre Love Triangle.

This thread is awfully similar the True Tales and Confessions thread, which was awfully similar to the Least Manly Thing You've Done This Year Thread.

My guilty confession is having read those threads.

 

[dare2be]

I think we need a new thread about guilty confessions of threads we have read, or threads we thought about creating.

She kind of sounds like the Kelli Dayton/Ali from Sneaker Pimps. I also loved that song Six Underground by them.

I don't think that counts because Kate Beckinsale is in it. I really like the way you think she is my favorite.

Anyway my guilty pleasure is I really like romanctic movies the whole freaking genre of romantic movies. Romantic comedy, tear jerkers everything. It is my favorite type of movie to watch.

 

[sabresfaninthesouth]

Not sure how much some of these count.

Movie - Love to watch cheesy action flicks from the 80s and laugh my balls off. Rocky 4, Bloodsport, virtually any movie with Ahnold from that era.

Music - Still pop in a few of the techno albums that I listened to in high school from time to time.

Book - Own and have read every James Bond novel ever published, including novelizations, continuation authors, etc.

 

[johnnytata]

also in the movie genre, not sure if they would count but they do feel like guilty pleasures:

gone in 60 seconds
fast and furious movies.

Adele, her voice is something else...

There is absolutely nothing wrong with this. Nothing.

Listening to Pointer Sisters "We Are Family" right now.

What do I win?

Oh shut up.

For me:
Movies: Chicago
Music: Chicago

 

[beantownmaniac]

Ok, here it is. Something I rarely, if ever show publicly or talk about. I'm a hopeless romantic and love hearing the classic love songs of our time.



Gahead, laugh, I'll put a sock full of pool balls upside ya head.

Roy Orbison FTW, Wayne, he wrote and performed some great songs...

So we've finally run out of topics, damn.

It was just a matter of time.

Time to close the internets.

I will jam out and sing in the car like a mad man if "Bye bye bye" by 'N Sync comes on the radio.
