    I’ve a couple of tunes that I would blame on my seven year old, should anyone ever scroll through my playlist. I don’t think she’s even heard of ‘baby (one more time)’ though

    Joe Dolan was amazing, cracked the UK long before the rats

    Tar and Cement is a fantastic song

    Fantastic voice.

    Not to mention his version of Blur's The Universal.

    Hmmm. That’s a great song though even if it’s from a not so great band.

    Ah now; they were a fantastic pop group while they lasted.

    I listen to this way more than anyone should.

    Probably one of the most obscure entries on this list, Belgium's entry in the 2015 Eurovision

    Miley Cyrus-Wrecking Ball. It use to be one direction cause my daughter was in to them when younger so had them on in the car all the time.

    They'll probably spontaneously combust if they ever discover that Judas Priest recorded three songs with SAW.

    Devil goes down to Georgia - the Muppet Version.

    If I ever met you in person, I'd give you a hug for reminding me about that! :)

    I'm a dyed in the wool metal head. But on my phone I have Scala & Kolacny Brothers. some of their interpretations of songs are just haunting.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,642 ✭✭✭✭Quantum Erasure


    i don't have a playlist, but if i had it would all be hidden lurkers, miley cyrus, Justin Bieber, whoever...

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,825 ✭✭✭IvoryTower


    Gigi - lamour tojour (I'll fly with you)

    My ultimate guilty pleasure, may gave spelled it wrong


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,474 ✭✭✭Obvious Desperate Breakfasts


    We all have them, things we listen to, god forbid someone else listens to our play lists...

    So let’s have em, admit to your darkest music secrets......

    May I start with....... let it rain East 17 lol

    ‘Stay Another Day’ - East 17
    Various Fergie songs - usually ‘Glamorous‘ and ‘Clumsy’
    ‘California Gurls’ - Katy Perry
    ‘Never Forget’ - Take That

    None of them remotely cool but who cares?

    Pure Shores - All Saints

    That is a quality song, IMO.
    Neil Diamond, apart from Sweet Caroline, but songs like Forever in Blue Jeans, Cracklin' Rosie and I Am I Said are masterpieces.

    I think ‘Girl, You'll Be a Woman Soon’ is a great song.

    That's on my list and i would not call it a lurker. Fantastic song and his voice is perfect. I remember seeing Brian singing it live on a music show from somewhere in Belfast. I hadn't heard of it or him before and I was stopped in my tracks by it. Love when that happens.

    Bonnie Tyler - Total eclipse of the heart.
    Tpau - China in your hands.
    Belinda Carlisle - Don't leave a light on.

    I get some slagging over the above cos the rest is rock and metal!!!

    I remember in 1988, at the peak of my thrash metal fandom, happily dancing away to Kylie Minogue at a 21st.

    I know words to loads of Cat Stevens and Dr Hook songs. Timeless, they don’t make them like that anymore... I’m 42 and people even just slightly younger than me in work are fascinated with how I know those songs... off I go niw doing housework singing Sylvia’s mother
