Cheesiest singer or group you secretly like (Read 999 times)

Carpenters aren't cheesy...Karen had a gorgeous voice (altos rule!). Hmmm...I just plain love broadway musicals. And I have way too much bubblegum pop on my iTunes.

Neil Diamond. My parents were in their 20's during Diamond's 1970's heyday, but no one ever said that my parents were cool. Whatever it was, it rubbed off on me. Although I don't own any of his music, I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Wayne Newton in Vegas. It doesn't get much cheesier than that. Many years of playing it pit orchestras for crappy community musicals have imbued me with a love/hate relationship with musicals. Meaning, I love them when they're done well, and hate them when they suck.

We all have a band or group that everyone is afraid to admit they like. Mine would be "The Carpenters". What's yours?

Please understand, that before I answer this I need to qualify my preferences normally [read: I'm stalling]. Tool, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, etc. as well as Metallica, Megadeath, Pantera etc. are my typical listening preferences. I've also recently re-discovered Jazz as a genre I enjoy listening to... Ahem. George Michaels. There, I said it. "Faith" is a great album and I listen to it more often than I'd care to admit. *hangs head in shame*

I think the word for your taste is "eclectic." Metallica, Pantera ... and George Michael. That's hilarious. ------------------------ The Carpenters define cheesy. If you don't think they're cheesy, well ... Neil Diamond, however, is not cheesy. Neil Diamond rocks the house.

Seeing how nobody on this board knows me, no family or friends here, I will admit I have the "Partridge Familys greatest hits" on my IPOD. Just remember the show was on tv win I was a kid. You can all admit it too "I Think I love You" and I Woke Up In Love This Morning" and really get you moving.

Well that pretty much wraps up this thread.

You win. Game over. Everybody can go home now. Move along. Nothing left to see here. I'm feeling much better about my Meat Loaf fetish.

There are 2 particularly embarrassing albums on my Ipod: The Best of Air Supply and Buffy the Vampire Slayer the Musical. I love Neil Diamond and am not afraid to admit it! I have seen him twice in concert-front row!
