Joe Walsh is the Real Deal.
well...it's hard livin' with such a man these past 18 years but there it is...we make these little concessions, i don't make him listen to joe and he doesn't make me listen to schmaltzy Moody Blues.

The Moody Blues should be nailed to the Space Shuttle with all the Joe Walsh haters. Seen Joe live several times, met Joe twice. I think he'd be the best next-door neighbor ever.

Other than his performance in The Rocky Horror Picture Show (and even that wasn't all that great) I'm not a fan of Meatloaf (both the singer or the food) either...

Love the food, hate the singer.

Growing up in seattle and catching the last halfish of the grunge era and stuff, I was trained that that was the type of music I was supposed to like... don't get me wrong, I love my stack of Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Nirvana, and the like... but a long time ago I also started liking rap. LOVING rap. It's like poetry, with rythm and feeling. So... for a long tome that was my guilty pleasure. Now I've said "screw it" and can admit that I like it to anyone.
I'm pretty open about every kinda music though. I have albums from every genre, from almost every era, and that's cool with me.
...
Never mind, I take it back. I have a spice girls album. And I know every lyric to every song. And THAT shames me.
(And for the record, George Michael rocks my socks off.)

Matrixman wrote: sgtnull mentioned the Hooters. Ah, some great '80s music memories here. I'm quite fond of their debut album. When I first heard And We Danced on the radio back in '85, it completely enthralled me. The song made me feel nostalgic for something that I never experienced, a false memory, yet it was very powerful. That's the mystery and magic of music. It was another classic song of the '80s for me. Then I heard All You Zombies and that was a mesmerizing song as well, with a strong message. The rest of the album turned out to be good as well, when I finally bought it.

The Hooters were awesome. They had a local album called Amore before Nervous Night. It contained some of the same songs, but with a rougher, unpolished sound. It's definitely my favorite Hooters album. When I was a senior, my high school won a contest whose grand prize was a Hooters concert. It was pretty cool to see them before they went on to national fame (sort of.) I'm so old.
Anyway, I'm ashamed to admit that I was singing America on my way to work the other morning. I don't think I like Neil Diamond. It happened just that once. Oh yeah... and Sweet Caroline. Once. I'm sorry.

Embarrassing music you love
OK, we all know what I am talking about. The song that you blast until you come to a stoplight, and then turn it down so the neighboring cars can't hear you.
We are all guilty of it. 'Fess up!
Mine?
You really don't want to know this about me, but its

I don't know if I should be embarassed by it. It is a really good song, just a bit before my time.

My right hand is lightning and my left is thunder.
My eyes are flame.
My heart is ashes.
Look upon me and tremble.
