Songs You Like, That You Probably Shouldn't

Yeah, I am confident enough in my manhood to admit certain things. Yesterday I had Tina Turner's "We Don't Need Another Hero" crankin' in the Jeep and I was singing it at the top of my lungs. I got a few laughs at red lights but I did not really care. What song do you like that you stumble across on the radio, that you ALWAYS find yourself keeping on and crankin' up in the car, that you probably shouldn't? Here are a few of mine:

"Nothing's Gonna Stop us Now" by Starship (you got a problem with that?)
"Copacabana" by Barry Manilow
"Angel of the Morning" by Juice Newton
"September Morn" by Neil Diamond
"Didn't We Almost have It All" by Whitney Houston

Ok, I've embarrassed myself enough, Sugar V is gonna have a field day!
Let's hear yours.....

Oh God. I sing along to every song that comes on the radio no matter how nuts I look (or how horrible I sound) to other drivers. Sometimes I scare myself! LOL.

Crazy driving songs I prefer are Dirrty (Christina Aguilera), Cry Me A River (Justin Timberlake), and anything by Usher, Ludicras, 50 Cent, etc.

I have TONS of them, being the old fart that I am. I love Barry Manilow. (Maybe it's because he wrote that song about me...that one anonymous likes.) Others include, but are no means limited to:

Get Into My Car [Billy Ocean]
Get Down Tonight [KC and the Sunshine Band]
Old Time Rock & Roll [Bob Sieger]
Amy [Pure Prairie League]
Let's Get it On [Marvin Gaye]
It's Raining Men [Weather Girls]

Anything by Billy Joel of course.
How about -Wind Beneath My Wing

Darcey said...

I think I would have to go with...
any Journey song.
a handful of Britney Spears songs (Stronger, I'm a Slave 4 U, Boys)
I Will Always Love You.
Walkin on Sunshine.
Baby Got Back.
Desperately Wanting.
any Abba song.
(OMG, my boss's boss just walked by while I was entering a comment... thank goodness for Alt+Tab.)

The first one that comes to mind: "Sex and Candy" by Marcy Playground...and I am offended that "Ice Ice Baby" made the list...that is one of my favorite songs to this day. I rock out with Vanilla Ice and there is no embarassment here...

Debi said...

OK since I am a singer I blast anything I can sing along to. Anything by Heart, Pat Benetar, or Evanescence!

I guess the worst would be my one hit wonder CD that someone made for me.....not only do I sing my heart out but most people have no clue what songs I have on.....I love it and I enjoy my time in the car to listen to my music.

My boyfriend will not listen to the same stuff I do:)

Christie E. Little said...
