What’s your “guilty pleasure” song?
I actually dislike the term “guilty pleasure”. If it makes you happy, then why feel guilty about it? But I saw this question on another forum, and it was a lot of laughs to see what songs people were either “ashamed” to admit that they really liked, or songs they really loved that you would never guess just by looking at them. For example, the lead singer of a black metal band here said that every time he heard “Please Don’t Go Girl” by New Kids on the Block, he has to stop what he’s doing and sing along.
My “guilty pleasure” song is Cameo’s Word Up. I can’t hear that song without hollering it from the top of my lungs, complete with hands waving in the air and all the dance moves. Plus, nobody can rock a red cod piece like Larry Blackmon.
What’s yours?

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.So many. And I agree, no sense in feeling guilty. My oldest son and I know all the words to Shoop by Salt-N-Pepa. We belt it out in the car when it rolls up on shuffle. Cake by the Ocean is another.

Stalker song
@DobbinPitch makes you wonder why its one of the most requested records at weddings
@magicwatch i know, right?! Ysy! I married my stalker!
Probably my favorite band : )
A Japanese electro-goth group called Aural Vampire has a couple of really catchy songs; I particularly love "Freeze" and "Darkwave Surfer"... but I wouldn't be caught dead blasting them in my car.

@xamountofstars I also enjoy Baby Metal's backing musicians, but I am a little too old to embrace the kawaii cultural crossover.
@xamountofstars have you ever checked out Cthonic? Black metal band out of Taiwan that mix in classic Chinese instruments.
Been singing it since i saw it in the theaters lol

I still love Swing! Jazz, dance, swagger & great beats & melody! Almost as good as Sex, Drugs & Rock 'n' Roll! In this case it was Sex, Drugs & Swing!!!
If you feel guilty about enjoying anything from The Count then you got problems!

Great song, and also covered hundreds of times by the Grateful Dead.
OMG, I frick'n LOVE that song!

Mine is an ACTUAL guilty pleasure cuz I’m a feminist! Which is why I’m not posting the video for the song you CANNOT tell my daughter I love, Blurred Lines by Robin Thicke. I mean if you don’t watch it or really think about the words, it’s amazing musically.

My alarm has been set to play that song for months! I have always loved it. I had the cassingle when it first came out. (Remember those?!)
My guilty pleasure song would be Wannabe by Spice Girls.

Every time I hear that song I think to myself, "Well, I'm not as young as I used to be, but I'll surely give it a go!"

I love this song. I heard it and liked it before I even knew that Gangsta's paradise existed
Sex Type Thing by Stone Temple Pilots for its disturbing combination of a sexy beat, a sexy voice, and rapey lyrics. Did I win?
