I think my husband has every 80's hair band cd ever made in his truck right now, plus all of the 80's hair band compilation cd's !
Yeah, I find it a little hard to admit to Dave, but whatever. Under the Table and Dreaming and Before these Crowded Streets were good albums, regardless of how frat-boy it is to like Dave. Whatever. Good music is good music.Originally Posted by Zoe'n'MissKitty
And Dave Matthews. I have to admit that I really like their earlier stuff. Don't much care for the latest CD, though.
Really?! I had no idea I was supposed to be embarrased about liking Dave Matthews!Originally Posted by lionessrampant

OMG I used to listen to them all the time. And my family knew it, but were horribly embarassed! I saw a couple shows and met them at a CD signing when I was in NYC. I thought the shows were really good though, got a concussion at one of them (a sure sign of a good show). They helped me get through a really rough time in my teen years, but I don't listen to the music anymore. A *few* too many swears for a set of young ears!Originally Posted by GrayKittenLove
Well I can't think of anything my friends don't already I know I listen too. They know I love bad music.
That being said, a few years ago I was going to a concert of an act that I wouldn't admit to my family. Insane Clown Possee...my friends were going with me though. It wasn't a very good show. But I still bust out the CDs on occassion.

Why would you be embarrased to listen to Simon and Garfunkel!! Such a beautiful fuse of lyrical word play and congenial melodies eludes the modern music scene! Please dont be embarrassed, shout out loud that you love simon and garfunkel......
Anyway as far as I am concerned, lets see am embarrased to like a bit of numetal crap.
As such my staple diet is 80s thrash metal like slayer, exodus, forbidden, megadeth, Death Angel, Sadus, Kreator and stuff like that. Nothing to be embarrased, i like to be oldschool!!
Add me to the list of people who like Ashlee (shhhhh, don't tell anyone!)Originally Posted by captiva
Looking at the other thread, I was reminded that I like Ashlee Simpson.Probably the only person on this site that likes her
Good for him! I have quite a few myself.Originally Posted by AbbysMom

I have to admit, I love "My Humps"! It's SOOOO incredibly dumb but it makes my co-workers and I laugh and we all dance around like dorks!
Yeah me too. Good music stays good throughout the years. I don't care if it's old now, I'm not a teenager so why should I care about being trendy? I find there's just not a lot of new music that really speaks to me, y'know? I suspect that's because my life right now is pretty boring, and therefore doesn't need a soundtrack.Originally Posted by marie-p
I'm kind of embarassed that I mostly like older music now. I used to keep up with recent stuff but not anymore.
my "recent" music is at least 4-5 years old (older Radiohead stuff, Bjork, Massive Attack, Rage Against the Machine...) and now I am getting more an more into old stuff - Micheal Jackson (and other 80s stuff), Beatles, Gordon Lightfoot, Pink Floyd...
I'm also listening to more classical music (espeicially Glenn Gould) and some Jazz.
I don't know much about recent music and I don't really care that much. Still, it makes me feel old to see my tastes in music change like that.
Like Grampa Simpsons said: "I used to be "with it" but then they changed what "it" was. Now what I'm with isn't "it" and what is "it" seems strange and confusing."
Same here! I love them bothOriginally Posted by Oscarsmommy
I like Jessica more though. I like her voice a lot. I like Ashlee's because her voice is SO different!
But...but....but Leonard Cohen writes such great songs, so beautiful lyrics. Why embarrassed!! Please dont say that.....Originally Posted by Julianne
