This is what I could think of as far as guilty pleasure goes

Where do I even start from???

I doubt thereā€™s a living soul that doesnā€™t know this song xD

#8

Pop music peaked in 1978.

#9

This is one of my partnerā€™s favorite karaoke songs lol

#10

This song made quite a lot of people suddenly interested in the fall of the Russian empire.

#11

This made me quite nostalgic so hereā€™s a treat for ya (in case you never heard it before)

#12

I never get to properly explain that I like this unironically.

#13

That is a dreadful song but thatā€™s the point of this. Actually liking something unironically.
We are with you, thereā€™s no shame.

#14

Proof that Indians are way ahead of their time!

Through the advent of ā€˜headphonesā€™ (which are tiny speakers that fit on your head - brilliant!), Iā€™ve managed to not subject others to my poor musical taste, thus a complete lack of guilt in my off-color music choices.

Honestly, probably something really 80s like Sisters of Mercy. Most people didnā€™t want to hear that ridiculous shit back then, nobody wants to hear it now, but I still love it.

Iā€™ve been trying to think of something I listen to that is actually a ā€œguiltyā€ pleasure. I could list any number of things other people might laugh at me for liking but I donā€™t think that is the same thing.

That was what I was having trouble connecting. I go out of my way to listen to music I think is good. I understand that music and my valuation of good is subjective, but itā€™s mine. Thus, everything I listen to has some redeeming quality for me, and I can usually point that out if need be, so I donā€™t really feel guilty about it. Like I canā€™t think of a song that I like that I wish I didnā€™t. If I didnā€™t think it had some value for me, I wouldnā€™t listen to it.

If weā€™re just talking about stuff that isnā€™t mainstream that might get some raised eyebrows or a snicker amongt people that like and listen to whateverā€™s on Top 40 radio, then yeahā€¦thatā€™s almost everything I listen to. Thatā€™s not much of a litmus test.

In the spirit of the thread and not being a party pooper Iā€™ll say Brittney Spearsā€™ Toxicā€¦I always thought the production was interesting for pop music at the time.
