Topic: Songs you wouldn't admit to liking....but do

[So… Howard Philips]

Mississippi - The Pussycats

Him - Rupert Holmes

[Buck Pete]

Ain’t no pleasin’ you by Chas & Dave

There’s also a Xmas song by a proper wrong un’ that I couldn’t help but enjoy if it came on.

[Buck Pete]

East 17 - Stay another day

[Vote For Pedro]

Fill My Little World - The Feeling.

Sorry. Can't tell you why. Just cheers me up.

[Terry de Niro]

Cracking song that was.

Well that makes me feel better!

[Crosby Nick]

Speaking of East17, that duet they did with Gabrielle.

I had to look that up as I couldn't think of any Christmas songs that *he* did. Then after listening to it I realise that I thought it was sung by Roy Wood or one of those other 70s guy that fell out of fashion. It's annoyingly toe-tapping all right. And that's why he appears in my YouTube search history, officer.

Unless you're talking about Mistletoe and Wine.

[Nitramdorf]

Girls Aloud - Biology

It's a cracker.

That latest one by Take That.

Very 60s chilled vibe.

Almost anything by Miley Cyrus.

[tubby]

Girls Aloud - Biology

It's a cracker.

Nothing wrong with that, they have a bunch of really good songs.

Did hear that on the radio and thought it had a very Laurel Canyon vibe all right.

I thought we were spoiled in the 00s with the quality of girl groups songs. Girls Aloud had a bunch of good songs, All Saints had Never Ever and Pure Shores (the best pure pop song of the 00s), and been listening to Overload by the Sugababes recently after it trended on X during the week. These are not so much songs you wouldn't admit liking, but openly admit it to be honest.

The one with the shiny last name?

[Ray K]

Nothing wrong with Jim Diamond though.

[red mongoose]

Holler - Spice Girls

Can't help it.

[Crosby Nick]

Holler - Spice Girls

Can't help it.

Haha I reckon I w only ever heard that about twice in my life. Was that one of their later/comeback songs when they tried to sound more polished?

It was a bit later, like very early 00s. I'm pretty sure Slag Spice had already left by then.

Ooh, someone took Geri’s departure badly. Hit hard did it?

[Zlen]

Bunch of Sugababes songs.

[Terry de Niro]

Maybe she's his ex and she fucked him off for Robbie Williams.   

[Buck Pete]

The one with the shiny last name?

yup

Guess I shoulda known better.

(great song btw)

[I've been a good boy]

I've had Girls Just Wanna Have Fun on my phone a few days, very weird for someone who usually listens to hip-hop and Turkish music.

[Ray K]

yup 

Sorta related: watched the last two episodes of the Steve Coogan Jimmy Savile programme. Ended up singing the Jim'll Fix It theme tune all day 

[Kenny's Jacket]

Me too!!

Brought back some good memories that theme tune did.  Was all a bit darkly surreal.

   Nah. It's just the spit of him

I am also going to admit I like Holding out for a Hero. Very David Hasselhoff

Would absolutely probably listen to that playlist whilst doing some chores.

[Crosby Nick]

Gets worse the closer to number 1 you get! And there’s better Fleetwood Mac songs than dreams.

You don't like I Want It That Way? Tell me why, Nick.

[Crosby Nick]

You don't like I Want It That Way? Tell me why, Nick.

Shite ballad.

Everybody (Backstreet’s Back). Larger Than Life…bangers.

Although we all know the real number one on that list is Keep on Moving by 5ive. I’d it’s good enough for Bob Mortimer.
