Guilty Pleasures

My family teases me that my iPhone is filled with ringtones because I only download songs that are popular -- never, ever a full CD.

It's true.

I might have horrible taste in music.

But what makes a song respectable?  I mean, if loving Xanadu is wrong, I don't want to be right. 

I leave no genre unexplored, a good song is a good song.  I walk to work each day -- my office is about 5 songs away -- and I mostly look for something fast-paced so I can step to the beat. 

You might find me on 42nd Street rocking out to one of these beauties:

1. Love Shack - B-52s
2. Hazy Shade of Winter - The Bangles
3. Copacabana - Barry Manilow
4. Stayin' Alive - Bee Gees
5. Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy) - Big & Rich

Ok, so it might be a shorter list if I named all the songs I like that AREN'T embarrassing.  Still, should I be ashamed to love these tunes? 

Nope.  That's why Bose invented headphones.

I can't be the only one!  Share YOUR questionable musical tastes below...
