List yours! The songs that you love, that everyone else frowns upon you for liking. (Because I need moar songs to enjoy.)

At the moment... The Best of My Love (Better version on Spotify if you search for it, by The Emotions.)

I have one or two. Hundred...

I'm a sucker for anything that's about love without being TOO sappy...A good examples: Thank You, You are my Sunshine, With Arms Wide Open, I Will Be Right Here Waiting For You, Iris, etc.

Same with a lot of Disney stuff. Or old Disney stuff anyway. Beauty and the Beast, Make a Man Out of You, You'll be in my Heart, Bibbity Boppity Boo, The Cinderella Waltz (Once Upon a Dream), Once Upon a December ((I know this isn't Disney, but it feels like one tongue.gif))

And a few random oddballs like the Ievan Polka, theme songs from cartoons I watched when I was little, Caramelldansen, and certain Final Fantasy songs. ((I'm currently trying to learn Kefka's theme on piano/organ))

EDIT: Links to follow as I get them.

Caramelldansen omg yes! I hope I'm not the only one who sometimes leaves that looping website open... tongue.gif Argh now it's reminded me of that other looping song that I can't quite remember but is equally fabulous.

I can't deny it any more. I enjoy the Rickroll song, and listen to it over and over.

Also This song, by Michael Jackson and Akon

I usually listen to the same hard rock stuff that Vathael has on his Last.fm list, but I do have some guilty pleasures, too.

I probably shouldn't publicly admit it, but I like Katy Perry.

Oh man, I like the element song.

The following song contains adult content. This song by Lords of Acid. Despite what you may think, it's about fluffy little kittens...yeah that's it. I think the song is pretty funny anyways.

Coheed and Cambria. Of all the time I spend hating Emo... I actually like Coheed and Cambria.

Oh man, so many guilty pleasures. Caramelldansen, Llevan Polka, far too many anime OPs, a lot of video game music (a lot of it Touhou), a lot of spanish songs, Colbie Caillat.

An example of Touhou music (most of the great ones are fan remixes, the originals are pretty good too):

Anything that you can describe as a 'cluster**** of sound' usually qualifies too. My favourite example:

^I listen to stuff like this when I'm playing MMOs. Usually as the healer. Allows me to perform inhuman feats, somehow.

Edit: Friends of mine laugh at my girly music preferences even if I'm gay. sad.gif

Amon Amarth and Avenue Q.

Amon Amarth is a guilty pleasure? >.>

Guilty pleasures of mine: Rob Zombie and all House/Trance music.

When you're not usually a metal fan they are
