I'd definitely have to say a good number of Enrique Iglesias songsI could get a good look at a T-Bone by sticking my head up a bull's ****, but I'd rather take the butcher's word for it.

Not sure if he counts, but I love some of Elvis Presley's stuff. Burnin' Love, Suspicious Minds, Hound Dog, In The Ghetto etc."Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then." Bob Seger

Funny you should say that................remember in the early 80's all the Elvis stuff you could get off TV. The ultimate cheesy marketing machine. I have a couple of Elvis songs on a compilation disc for the car and I find myself turning it down a little bit if I'm at a stop light and the windows are open .
I can't help getting all those cheesy commercials outta my head and I remember some of my Grandma's friends being obsessed with Elvis at the around his death. It's a bad memory so yes in those terms Elvis could be a guilty pleasure.
However anyone who knows and appreciates music; Elvis is the KING!
H9"Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it. Differentiation by numbers is for those who do not".--Nelson Pass Pass Labs XA25 | EE Avant Pre | EE Mini Max Supreme DAC | MIT Shotgun S1 | Pangea AC14SE MKII | Legend L600 | BlueSound Node 3 - Tubes add soul! -
Yeah, I wouldn't consider Elvis a guilty pleasure either. Too universally popular and beloved.zingo wrote:Beatles are not a guilty pleasure, and neither is Chicago.
Depends which Chicago you're talking about. "25 or 6 to 4" Chicago, awesome. 80's Chicago like "You're the Inspiration"? Not only a guilty pleasure, but you should drive yourself off a bridge.If you will it, dude, it is no dream. -

Oh, you hate your job? Why didn't you say so? There's a support
group for that. It's called EVERYBODY, and they meet at the bar.

I can't do Madonna, but I am a closet Richard Marx and Avril fan. Avril is very hit 'n miss though, her stuff is either wonderful, or down right stupid (skater boy stuff sucks). If she focused on "grown up" music, this gal would be a force to be reckoned with.Source: Bluesound Node 2i - Preamp/DAC: Benchmark DAC2 DX - Amp: Parasound Halo A21 - Speakers: MartinLogan Motion 60XTi - Shop Rig: Yamaha A-S501 Integrated - Shop Spkrs: Elac Debut 2.0 B5.2

She is kinda hot in a jailbait waifish sorta way.
Wow, she's actually only a few years younger than me so not even that much jailbait. I feel even better calling her hot now.If you will it, dude, it is no dream. -
Tom Jones, The Monkees(good show), EARLY Bee Gees, Sonny & Cher, assorted one hit wonders. And I've got a lot of 'em.I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!
