Do you have a secret "guilty pleasure" recording?


You know...a recording that you would never play for anyone else because you are afraid they would think your nuts and snicker. I'll go ahead and admit mine - "The Carpenters Greatest Hits." Now stop that! I bet you have a guilty pleasure recording. What is it?

The Carpenter's "A Song For You."

Incredibly well-recorded and thanks to A&M generally well-manufactured.

Probably their only album that really stands together as a seamless whole and the only one made for adults. Very entertaining and Karen's voice is, as always, lovely.
Hey Doc_stereo!
Go to Europe and play an ABBA song on the juke box and all the wives will love you.
They're still incredibly beloved there.
I have all their albums! (But I'm pretty sure I got them all for a buck or less.)
Although I did pay full price for the "Waterloo" single when I was 11 in 1974.
William Shatner ''Has Been''CD. Captain Kirk himself. This is no joke.

Men Without Hats ''Safety Dance'' early techno that is acutally quite fun to hear.

I also agree with Karen Carpenter - effortless vocal beauty.
Tvad: Karen had one of the greatest voices ever...., add to that, her brother was a musical genious and, after all of their fame, she still considered herself a drummer first before a singer.

Styx "Mr. Roboto"
Men Without Hats "Hey Men"
Sniff "n" the Tears "Driver's Seat"
Walter Egan "Magnet and Steel" (..a great song that is forgotten)

Regarding "Oops...I Did it Again",  I think artists such as Richard Thompson, who covered it, saw through the fluff.

I personally, don't know why there is such a love/hate relationship with Adelle? What a great talent! Many more.
