Katseye just dropped their new song Pinky Up. I know it’s a bit brainrot and way too short, but I’ve had it on repeat. There’s something so cunty, girly-girl about the vibe, I’m a total sucker for songs like that.

The Flys - Got You Where I Want You, Rob Zombie -Dragula, Real McCoy - Runaway

That country song where she takes a bat to her bf's car because he cheated on her. True, its not emotionally mature, but its fun to sing.

[–] BigBananaDealer@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

that could be any country song a woman has sung tbh

Sclub 7: Reach for the stars Or Bring It All Back

However Don't Stop Movin' is an actual banger.

Going back in time even more to a forgotten abba copy band. Upside Down by the A*Teens.

We Built this City - by Starship

It is the greatest song ever produced. It even has a fake backstory, and is somehow about every city. Chef's kiss on that one.

[–] thatradomguy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Bottom of Your Boots by Ella Langley. I don't even fucking listen to country but there is a pop kind of tune they've injected into the song that makes it bearable despite the cringe lyrics. I am looping this as I write.

Blinded by the Light by Manfred Mann’s Earth Band. Something about the lyrics just makes me smile.

Have to add another that qualifies way more, since it came up on my playlist on the way home from work.

Electric Six - Gay Bar

At the time, I was into the Rockband games, and when this song came out, I flat-out refused to sing it. I felt like I was being punked. My wife sang it instead, the song was awesome, and I went from "I would never" to "I will sing it" to "I will be the first one to pick it every time." IIRC it's fairly easy for all instruments, so it's fine to pick early before the band is properly warmed up. Like you never start with Metallica, Dream Theater, Iron Maiden, or certain other ones, unless you wanna be in a fight with your drummer and/or guitarist. Or they're gonna turn around and pick Spoonman, by Soundgarden, which is hell on vocals. In other words, you're in a fight.

Years later, I discovered the music video, which is 100% on point. It's a stupid/silly song and the video pulls no punches. TL;DW, the band members are all dressed up like Abraham Lincoln and... well... nah, just watch it. It might make some RWNJs think twice about saying they're "the party of Lincoln". Because apparently... Lincoln knew how to party?

Maybe not exactly a guilty pleasure, as the band actually OK overall.. But

"Instamatic" by Vertical Horizon

Neil Peart was the guest drummer and it's very apparent he makes a massive impact on Vertical Horizon. The entire band becomes way more precise and the song just hits differently and harder than any of their other work.

[–] Krauerking@lemy.lol 3 points 1 day ago

Yeah I would chalk it up to Vertical Horizon being just considered a barely 1 hit wonder band from lack of label support. Neat deep cut, but I wouldnt ever feel bad about liking them.

[–] Randelung@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

A few songs by Modern Talking. Only about once a year, though.

Speaking of which...

[–] fantacyde@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 day ago
[–] Coldgoron@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 day ago

This song isn’t necessarily bad but it is somewhat of a toxic but relatable tune to my adhd self.

Go All The Way · The Amazons

[–] Akasazh@lemmy.world 15 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Gunther: Ding Dong Song.

It hasn't agred well die to the sexualization of women. But that's the guilty part I guess.

[–] cattywampas@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

To be fair it sexualizes men a whole lot as well.

[–] gurty@lemmy.world 17 points 2 days ago (5 children)

Tatu, All The Things She Said. Everything awful about Tatu but I can’t help but enjoy that song.

[–] cerebralhawks@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I prefer the Russian version, feels more authentic since they're from there.

[–] fantacyde@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 day ago

I do enjoy their Russian versions of releases more. Especially this one. :) It is fun hearing even slight musical differences in the songs. And I like how they are vocally more comfortable in native language too.

Those that people around me do not approve:

  • Die Antwoord - Doosdronk
  • Afroman - Randy Walters is a son of a bitch
  • A capella science - rolling in the Higgs
  • Tom Cardy - Je suis fatigué
  • Dale Mehndi - Tunak Tunak Tun
  • Keddi Kosár - Mi Vagyunk Magyar Peter (Mulatós version)
[–] Randelung@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Tom Cardy - Repress it!

[–] Gerudo@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 days ago

Tunak tunak tun will always be a banger

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago

Afroman mentioned 👍

[–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I have never understood the point of guilty pleasures. Why are you letting other people decide what you like?

[–] violet08_@lemmy.world 28 points 2 days ago (3 children)

It’s not about that. If I can tell something is objectively bad but still enjoy it, I consider it a guilty pleasure, lol.

I'm embarrassed to say, but Lindsay Lohan - Speak. Don't hate me!

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 9 points 2 days ago

I was about to say that I dont have one because I love all the music I listen to and im not ashamed of any of it. Then I remembered 2018 where I listened to KDA PopStars so many times on repeat that it still sits at the top of my music mogging the music I actually like.

[–] mechoman444@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Take it off by Ke$ha.

It's such a good song.

[–] sad_detective_man@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Grimes - Delicate Weapon. It appears in a videogame during a moment that's a complicated stew of themes and emotions including precarity, desperation, but also deep burgeoning artificiality and fakeness. The act of stopping to enjoy the song is entirely optional, you do surrounded by completely insufferable and irredeemable people, by it's still kind of a moment.

It makes me think about how deep down in some kind of (possibly shitty) way we really are the things that we pretend to be. But I also kind of like that.

Leftover Crack's first two albums scratch an itch that nothing else can reach. Unfortunately the frontman is a raging piece of shit.

[–] backalleycoyote@lemmy.today 3 points 23 hours ago

LC never quite scratched that itch for me but Choking Victim is absolutely a guilty pleasure I haven’t abandoned despite Scott’s bs.

[–] Nikki@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 days ago

die young by kesha for sure, I love it its such a mood

Most music sung by Japanese idols, because while I'm absolutely infatuated by the music, the knowledge of what kind of horrible working conditions they have to endure is like a splinter in my brain. But if I had to mention just one, why not go back to the good old days. 🥰
