Songs you like but are too cool to admit it

    So, here I am listening to a 90's playlist on Spotify and The Animal Song by Savage Garden comes on. How did I forget that?! What a tune! :D
    It's so positive and the beat is really catchy. I love it! :o

    My friends and family know me for being into Rock and Metal, but little do they know, I am a sucker for songs like the above.

    I will post more of my "uncool" guilty pleasures when I think of them.

    So now is your time to come clean ladies and gents :D

    No prob admitting it but it's a cheese-fest of a song: Hold On By Wilson Phillips. Great song - with inspirational lyrics!

    Wow, you must be really cool already if you can't admit to liking that song.

    Dude.... If you're a girl I could let you away with this. If you're a man I want to stage an intervention.

    Not quite as bad but still pretty bad...

    Walk like an egyptian by I can remember who.

    That song by four non blondes, their one hit wonder.

    Last year I was incredibly drunk at a Karaoke bar with some friends, all of them were too scared to do anything, I said I was going to the toilet and actually went up and sang "Quit Playing Games With My Heart" by The Backstreet Boys. Everybody loved it. The crowd got into it, my friends were shocked and impressed, it was honestly one of the most fun things I've done...

    Nobody asked why I knew all of the words by heart to the point where I could perform the 5-man song by myself while locked. :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,628 ✭✭✭Femme_Fatale


    That song Alan Partridge lip-syncs to while driving, at the start of Alpha Papa: Roachford - Cuddly Toy. I don't blame Alan for giving it loads - it's that kinda song.

    A lot of One Direction songs. Also got my girlfriend tickets for Beyonce and Ellie Goulding as part of her Christmas present but secretly got them more so for myself.

    I was looking at this going "it's not cheesy" but when I decided to have a listen on YouTube I turned down the volume so my flatmate wouldn't hear.

    Also, Backstreet's Back (Alright!).

    So I just looked it up and I completely forgot about this song...probably because I thought they said "I want to live like cannonballs" (Cause that makes perfect sense!!) :D

    I was playing along to it on Spotify but had to keep turning down the volume everytime somebody came up the stairs in case they heard it :cool:

    As long as 'All Those Little Things' isn't one of them I'll let you off this once.

    Personally, I actually have a ****ter taste in music than I like to let on. I recently found myself bopping and finger tapping along to Shane Filan's new song (Knee Deep In My Heart?) while stuck in traffic

    fortunately, "un-cool" is the new "cool" :cool:
