guilty pleasure music?

<p>do you guys have anything wonderful/embarrassing buried in the darkest recesses of your itunes? i'm a secret one direction fan (england's more adorable answer to the backstreet boys One</a> Direction - What Makes You Beautiful - YouTube) and i'm also a sucker for ryan beatty (shame, shame, shame <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suu5bgySWaQ%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suu5bgySWaQ&lt;/a&gt;). as someone who mostly listens to classic or uber pretentious indie (matisyahu, fleet foxes, whatever), i sincerely hope i'm not the only one who indulges in pop :)</p>

<p>I’ve always secretly enjoyed some Marilyn Manson songs.</p>

<p>Taylor Swift hahaha. Normally I’m a classic-ish rock/more alt stuff kind of girl.</p>

<p>@jimbosteve: hahahaha yes! i had a marilyn manson phase in ~8th grade and occasionally itunes still shuffles him. good times.</p>

<p>eartheyes: no tswift for me, but my best friend (a guy) is a closet fan.</p>

<p>kpop .</p>

<p>^Same as above, I listen to K-pop at home, but never tell anybody at or in public lol</p>

<p>the only kpop song i’ve heard was boyfriend by boyfriend (?). SO CATCHY AND ADORABLE. annoying not to be able to understand the lyrics though</p>

<p>edit: i am now listening to it I LOVE THEM.</p>

<p>Oh, that reminds me. Girls’ Generation… the music videos are slick, the girls are pretty hot, and the music is catchy. I wouldn’t necessarily volunteer that I’m a fan, if not for the anonymity afforded to me by the internet.</p>

<p>Dutch Rap. It’s a relatively unique guilty music pleasure, I’ll admit. To get a good idea of Dutch Rap, watch this: [The</a> Opposites feat. Dio & WiWa - Dom, Lomp & Famous - YouTube](<a href=“The Opposites feat. Dio & WiWa - Dom, Lomp & Famous - YouTube”>The Opposites feat. Dio & WiWa - Dom, Lomp & Famous - YouTube)</p>

<p>Kpop…ahaha. SNSD isn’t very good though. I like SHINee (their dances are amazing!), 2NE1, f(x) and sometimes Super Junior.</p>

<p>EDIT: @OP, Fleet Foxes and Matisyahu are entry-level indie, just sayin’ :P</p>

<p>@anaychi i actually really like this haha… downloading as i type this.</p>

<p>Yeah, it’s surprisingly addicting, even though half of their lyrics are nonsense.</p>

<p><3 Top 40 <3</p>

<p>the biebs.</p>

<p>I kid.</p>

<p>Any and all Harry Potter stuff (Wizard Rock, Starkid AVPM/S, Soundtracks) and really emotional country music.
I usually listen to the Killers, Coldplay, ect.</p>

<p>Fleet Foxes pretentious? HA.</p>

<p>Matisyahu? Not really indie rock.
Fleet Foxes? Not really pretentious.</p>

<p>My “guilty pleasure”? '70s power pop. I know it’s not the most innovative music in the world, but I love the formula.</p>

<p>oh come on, you don’t feel a little pretentious saying you like fleet foxes? i mean, they’re really good, but at least where i love they’re just considered to be so painfully hip. and yeah i wouldn’t call matisyahu indie rock, just vaguely indie as a catch-all because i don’t think he fits in a genre well (reggae, then he get more pop-ish, and then the beatboxing…).</p>

<p>and @Hatshepsut, wizard rock is nothing to be ashamed of! rather, it’s pretty much the awesome, albeit in a dorky way.</p>

<p>As bad as this sounds, I stopped listening to Fleet Foxes a while ago due to a growing influx of pretentious fans (it’s hard to like a band when they have “fans” verbally vomit pretentious verbiage about their music). They themselves aren’t “pretentious” per se, but I’ve gotten tired of them.</p>

<p>@anaychi I agree. I’m not proud to be one of those people who abandons a band once they become famous, but I had to do it with Mumford & Sons (couldn’t bear to hear Little Lion Man one more time) and the Fleet Foxes crowd is getting pretty bad too. Now it’s happening with Johnny Flynn as well, sad :(</p>

<p>^ Just read this post over, I hate myself</p>
