Stop the snobbery and lets have some honesty.
Apologies for stealing this idea from the Films thread - but it's a good idea.
So come on, get off your high (crazy) horses and out of your (ebony and) ivory towers and own up to the the uncool stuff in your LP/cassette/CD/mp3/Edison cylinder collection. Remember - it's hip to be square.

I don't own any of their records but I don't mind Girls Aloud and not just because most of them are fit. I also have a Terrence Trent D'Arby album which I bought as a kid which I still dearly love and listen to.

I like Mumford and Sons.
I love every KoL album, even though its desperately uncool to like anything after the first (or second at a push) album.

I like the fact you had more of a problem with Bon Jovi than Steps. could work, my friend, good work.

Re: Stop the snobbery and lets have some honesty.
TTD is OK, as long as it's before the name change. I have one of his later singles - Holding On To You - which is excellent.
I own and play The Best of Buck's Fizz - there's 8 or 9 pretty good tracks on there (out of 16). Nothing wrong with a good pop song, I say.

I don't think Arctic Monkeys' best album is their first.
I think Day and Age is the best Killers album.
Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds are better than Oasis.

Re: Stop the snobbery and lets have some honesty.
There is a bloke on the boxing boards called Dave who openly admitted to listening to Heavy Metal, as a grown adult! Surely it does not get more embarrasing than that.

Do you listen to MANOWAR Dave, had a mate who also had not grown out of listening to METAL and he made me sit through some once. Those lads need to relax a little.

Re: Stop the snobbery and lets have some honesty.
MANOWAR was of course a British Royal Navy expression for a powerful warship or frigate from the 16th to the 19th century.
MANOWAR, MEGADETH - they're not just band names you know, they're deep socio-political commentaries.

Ironically, for a band that pride themselves on having some of the most stereotypically cliched "metal" imagery for their album covers etc...I find them quite tame.Rowley wrote:Do you listen to MANOWAR Dave, had a mate who also had not grown out of listening to METAL and he made me sit through some once.

Only time I enjoyed listening to that sort of stuff (and it wasn't Manowar but one of many similar bands) was when I went to Wacken. Jagermeister for breakfast and several pints of lager over a period of hours will make that stuff seem like the second coming of Mozart. In reality/ sobriety I find it tedious in the extreme.

and I like Moves like Jagger by Maroon 5.
Partly because we have a fat dude that works with us and we all sing Moobs like Jagger whenever he gets up to do anything.

I own all three of Justin Timberlakes solo albums, and pre-ordered his latest work.
Also, Jack Johnson is better than John Mayer...

All 3 of these are very correct. The Killers is arguable as their newest album was also excellent, but Oasis are tripe and the Arctic Monkeys have only improvedCrimey wrote:I don't think Arctic Monkeys' best album is their first.

Girls Aloud and the Saturdays have both produced very catchy tracks.

I have both Bananarama's True Confessions and The Bangles Different Light on vinyl, I've seen Olivia Newton-John live, I've been involved in an argument about the meaning of the Spice Girls Wannabe lyrics, I've almost been in a fistfight over who was better out of Pet Shop Boys and A-ha (I favoured PSB), I have Pass The Dutchie, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun & Sweet Like Chocolate on my iPod.

Nothing wrong with The Bangles - can't imagine anyone would think there was. I have my doubts about the others.
I downloaded 3 David Soul tracks and 3 Barry Manilow tracks for my 70's compilation CD.

I like Damien Rice....used to put his CD's on back in my single days once I'd got a lady back to mine just to "prove I'm in touch with my feelings"
Also, many thanks to Portishead (Dummy) and Sade for helping tip the balance in my favour on more than one occasion
