Some good albums there you picked.

To begin my love is always Floater. It isn't so much as a jamming to as a being in love with, if one could be in love with a band. I feel shy about talking about them, but cannot help myself often.

But my music tastes are vast in the end.

Albums to jam to though. Here:

The Blue album is such a classic! And I would say Manson is a guilty pleasure but I still listen to him quite a lot at times. I do love "Mechanical Animals" and "Holy Wood"

I don't have "guilty pleasures" since I unashamedly and unabashedly listen to a lot of "bad" music. Absolutely unironically, too since I genuinely enjoy, for example,

Just discovered this Viking Metal act last night. Good stuff...

Way better than you remember:

This one's actually hard to admit to. Hey, the songs are good, okay?

I have tons more.

I was so sure we've had this exact same thread not too long ago, but I can't find the one I was thinking about. Instead I found older ones.

Oh well.

This has been posted by me too often already, but it remains my guilty pleasure: (Happy) Hardcore.

Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera. I grew up with that, so whatever. I only listen to them like once in a few months, though, and only on youtube, I am not polluting my computer.

In Utero is special to me.

First album I ever owned because I liked it, instead of because it was what everyone else liked.

I was thinking the same thing. Why the hell would Manson and Nirvana be guilty pleasures?

Manson because I am not 14 anymore. Nirvana, well for the same reason only you'd have to understand how cracked out on Nirvana I once was.

I can see Manson being embarrassing if one was once into applying way too much black lipstick and, like, wearing a cape. I've seen this. I've not done it. When I was that age (1982!) it was Christian Death and 45 Grave. I wasn't a deathrock kid though, I was a punk. Sayin'.

I was a baby in '82. I've worn black lipstick, and I've worn capes, not often at the same time however. I was always grunge plus whatever mood of style hit me that month/day. Pearls and silver, velvet, ratty hair, flannel and silk, torn nylons and denim, so much black and always combat boots unless it was a platform heels day. With a baby on my hip. I've managed to tone it down a little since I've grown.

child of the '90's.

The embarrassment would be 1) how very silly it was of me to take the band as seriously as I did, and 2) I thought those boys with the capes and nailpolish were sooo sexy.

Have to laugh at myself.

Also this, the first girl-band ever in our post-Communist era.

I was 9 and thought these two 15-year-olds were awesome. The chorus goes like: "Free at the seaside/I'm lying on the beach with you/We're making love on the hot sand/I'm not a good girl anymore."

But I don't like them anymore. It's just nostalgia.

You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way?
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

There's a club if you'd like to go
You could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home and you cry
And you want to die

When you say it's gonna happen "now"
Well when exactly do you mean?
See I've already waited too long
And all my hope is gone

I became a bit addicted to Awolnation this year, um, last year. Favorite new band.

I couldn't decide which topic to put this in, but I guess this one seemed most appropriate.

This one is my favorite song of theirs, since the first time I heard it.

I've always been a pretty big fan of The Offspring. *hangs head* Well, their first three albums at least.

My favorites

And, my all time favorite song ever. Ever. yeah. *hangs head more* I don't care what's going on, this one is cranked up all the way.

Saw them at Vans warped tour best set I ever saw ( not saying much since I don't really brave shows at all)

I also have a signed poster of them that got stepped on and moshed on. Was awesome.
