Guilty Pleasures...

I feel like The Mars Volta is becoming a guilty pleasure. Sure they make great music, but their snobbishness, hipster fans, and the fact that the core of the group are scientologists makes me a bit weary to tell people that I like them.

I love The Righteous Brother's You've Lost That Loving Feeling. Too much Top Gun perhaps?

"Heavy Metal" Theme: Takin' A Ride / Don Felder - YouTube

Come on, listen to that delay.

I don't really hide any of my music, nor do I adhere to the idea of 'guilty' pleasures -- I don't see any reason to feel guilty about liking music. But stuff my friends THINK I should be ashamed of enjoying...

Natalie Imbruglia's 'Left of the Middle' album. I can listen to that forEVER.
Kelly Clarkson, Avril Lavigne...really any of your prototypical poppy girl singers. I love them all.

Insane Clown Posse -- I have never (nor ever WILL) claimed to be a 'juggalo', but I find ALL of their music goddamn hilarious. Their older albums in particular have some amazingly funny (though also musically interesting) tracks.

Ke$ha -- from my understanding basically 99% of all intelligent human beings despise her music and everything she stands for. I think it's great. Lyrically atrocious, musically derivative and uninspired, but catchy as hell and great background music when I'm reading or just want to irritate my friends.

I have no idea why, but I've listened to the following songs entirely too much in the past few weeks, and not been upset with them:

I've been in the car with my thirteen year old sister and my Mom a lot lately.

I could manage to listen to the first one for six seconds.
The second one... Well getting the mouse pointer to the stop button took me too long, if you ask me.

So... how on earth can you listen to this crap?

...Paris Hilton. I own her album. I only bought it for one song, but the whole CD kinda grew on me.
