[sharladawn]

C'mon, it's supposed to be songs that you're ashamed of, not just what you've got on there! I could rattle off over 8 days worth of music ....

It's an iPod confessional!

Pam Haplert - I think it's funny that you won't let anyone listen to your mix! It's like it's sacred to you or something.

[Great_Philandere...]

Just finished putting songs on my new iPod last night (early, EARLY this morning)... here are the things I'd never want ANYONE to know I have on there, so everyone stop reading now!

N'sync
Backstreet Boys
Britney Spears
Clay Aiken
Dog Star (Keanu Reeves's band)
Donny Osmond (Hey, I'm from Utah!)
Justin Timberlake
Lord of the Rings: Return of the King Sdtk
Monster Ballads (can't get enough love ballads from those danm 80's hair bands!)
Newsies Soundtrack
Tori Amos - I absolutely LOVE Tori, and I'm not embarrassed that she's on my iPod, but I AM embarrassed that I have over a day and a half of just her on there.

Yikes.

[sharladawn]

Yikes.

So do you want to virtually break-up?

[Great_Philandere...]

So do you want to virtually break-up?

No, I'll just have to suck it up and deal with the fact that my virtual squeeze listens to boyband music.

[sharladawn]

No, I'll just have to suck it up and deal with the fact that my virtual squeeze listens to boyband music.

Whew! *wipes forehead* I promise "boyband" takes up less than 1% of my entire iPod!

The only thing on this list that gives me great concern as a woman, parent and moderator is this(i may have to call in a specialist) :

Here's a hypothetical for you ... what would you say if I told you I saw him in concert? Remember this is just hypothetically!

[DarthSchrute]

Ok, my turn to confess. My favorite music tends to be alternative, techno, industrial, hard rock (think Foo Fighters to Fat Boy Slim to KMFDM to Rammstein). Here's my "ashamed of" list:

George Michael (GASP - Just one song though: Careless Whisper)
Hillary Duff (it's for my daughter I swear!)
Mozart's Requiem Mass
Prince
TATU

Not quite as ashamed of but debatable:
Enigma
Enya

[sharladawn]

*faints*

Dammit! I was afraid something like that might happen!

Darth Schrute - I'm with you on the classical stuff. I've got Handel's Messiah on mine. But I'm not ashamed of it, I'm just a singer.

[Cindysoffice]

My ipod has...

Beck (LOVE him!)
Cowboy Junkies (Sweet Jane, one of my favorites)
Death Cab for CutieGorillaz
She Wants Revenge
The Fray
White Stripes
The Hives
Iggy Pop
Trainspotting Soundtrack

Shakira
Evanescense (spelling NOT my forte)
Stevie Nicks

OK, now here are a few guilty pleasures...

Duran Duran(so nice, they named 'em twice)
Dokken
The Cure
The Smiths
The Smithereens

Two more, don't look it might hurt your eyes...

"True" by Spandau Ballet
"Never Let You Go" by Steelheart

[Great_Philandere...]

Oh Sharla, in concert. Folks, I may need your help in staging an intervention for Sharladawn.

Darth Schrute, I like your playlist, especially Fatboy Slim, and the Foo Fighters who are the best band ever imho

Hmmm, I just realized that I have no classical music on my iPod. I at least need Beethoven's 9th.

Sharla, nothing to be ashamed of in liking Tori Amos. She's a bit out there but she can definately sing. Still though, a day and a half? That's an exageration right? I mean that's got to be over 500 songs. Video iPod I'm assuming and not a nano or shuffle?

Fun to find a person with similar tastes.

John Legend is one of the greatest. His voice...
I am jealous of you, lol, tell me how he is in concert!

I like Robin Thicke's CD. "Complicated" is my favorite on the CD. What about you?

[sharladawn]

The Cure, The Smiths and Duran Duran should NOT be on a list of guilty pleasures!!! I LOVE the Cure!

Oh Sharla, in concert. Folks, I may need your help in staging an intervention for Sharladawn.

It was a Christmas gift for a friend of mine, and it WAS 2 years ago. Does that help?

Remember, I'm adorable.

Sharla, nothing to be ashamed of in liking Tori Amos. She's a bit out there but she can definately sing. Still though, a day and a half? That's an exageration right? I mean that's got to be over 500 songs. Video iPod I'm assuming and not a nano or shuffle?

60GB video iPod

I will never be ashamed of my love for Tori. But, yes, I do have about 450 songs that are Tori. But in my defense, she's put out a CD every two years since 1992, last year she released a 12 CD boxed set of live concerts, and then just put out a remastered 6 CD boxed set with B-sides and remixes, and I've got some bootlegs and DJ sample CD's. And she's coming out with a new CD in May and then in the fall ...... um, I think I'll stop. I can feel the testosterone level dropping.

sorry. i saw other people mentioning stuff, so i figured i could too.

It's all good. I just didn't want to be the only one getting picked on ... but I guess I should've thought of that BEFORE I posted. Sadly, now it's too late and no one will ever think of me the same way again....

You're lucky that you're cute, that's all I'm saying.

Oh, and you put every Tori Amos song on your iPod? When I burn one of my CD's I just grab the good songs and leave the filler. Although with 30G to hold songs I suppose I could burn everything. Hmm, right now I only have 11 hours of music on mine but if I burned absolutely everything I own I could probably stretch that out to several days worth of music. Of course I also have to leave room for office episodes.

Sharladawn, have you ever listened to Charlotte Martin? She is a newer artist, but has some similarities to Tori Amos. Some Tori fans love her music, others don't.
You should check her out. On Your Shore and the newest album Stromata are good ones to start with.

When it comes to Tori, there's no such thing as "filler"... I'm adding this to my list of things you'll have to learn.

I saw someone (probably you) talking about her on the music thread. I'll definitely give her a try. But once someone told me that Bjork was like Tori, so I listened to her .... and wanted to pull my ears off.
