Muscial Guilty Pleasures!

[medwayjon]

Anything, song/artist that you really like but feel perhaps slightly embarassed to admit to?

For me it is Barry Manilow, I love the bloke and his music, granted he has a big hooter, I mean if he fell on his face he would strike oil, but as an artiste, he is the man.

Manly Barilow, the only man who could walk into a wall with a hard on and still break his nose.

Anything not modern...



I hate Lady Gaga and Katy Perry.

I love Johnny Cash...


Not sure if that's that bad.
His stuff he wrote and sang before he died is amazing...

Example:

this has to be one of the best interpretations of a song ever.

[Leftie]

Would have been even more amazing if he had written it and sung it after he died

I do like JC though and particularly some of the stuff he did with Willie Nelson.

I must admit though that as I enjoy most forms of good music (don't ask me to define that) I love the crossovers between one form and another. As an example, some of Bach's music is close to jazz and when played well on a large pipe organ through a decent hifi system (loud) will vibrate the room and make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up (not Smiffy's though since he has been on the herbal medicine).

I attended a ceremony once at St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle. The organist was playing normal background organ music but as things were being delayed, he started to improvise on the basic set. As far as I was concerned, he bridged the gap between classical and jazz.

I remember Auburn Warrior telling me that Mr Squibb, his music master at school, was always telling him that it was difficult to beat his organ although apparently AW got an A+ for his efforts.

Smiffy,

Come on mate, fess-up, no-one will take the rise out of you for admitting that "YMCA" is your signature tune!

After a few lager shandies on a night out, love a bit of 70's disco!!!

Other than that, always turn up Meat Loaf's Paradise by the Dashboard Light when it's played on the radio!!!
