I’m a total classic Broadway geek, too. I have a rather large collection of that....but I’m not ashamed of those. :)

Air Supply will always sound like fingernails on the chalk board to me - because when it was popular I was in a place where I had to listen to it over and over and over and over - just because of the radio station song rotation and where I was. It is Gawd Awful!

I’m not Mormon, but they sure have a heck of a choir!

You may also recognize this as the theme music from the movie Platoon.

"I'm Not In Love" by 10cc is one.

Oh, yeah...I have that one on my iPod and "Guitar Man" by Bread as well.

They say confession is good for the soul. *sigh*

There’s a lot of Broadway I can definitely do without, but some of it is damned good. Hard to explain, I guess.

ABBA is great to listen to on the MP3 while raking leaves on my 5 acre forested lot. I will admit to being a HUGE dean Martin and Frank Sinatra fan as well. (It takes a week to rake.)

Huge simon and garfunkel lover here.

Hmm, let’s see.

Drop it like it’s hot is a guilty pleasure as is Bega’s Mambo number 5.

I don’t. But I have daughters ranging from 12 to 21, and of course my own stuff so there is a pretty weird mix of stuff on there.

I assume you mean Love Fool? I was on active duty when it came out so I didn’t hear too much current music. So it’s still new to me :-)

“Criminal by Fiona Apple”

Ohmigosh I love that song.

For sappy ones it’s got to be “Angel of the Morning”, but I blame my brother for getting me hooked on that.

For politically misguided tunes it’s definitely “How Can we Dance (when our beds are burning)? by Midnight Oil.

And for overplayed 80s radio tunes I have 2 “Safety Dance” and “Tainted Love”.

My brother really convinced me that cr*ppy music has its place, and he actually edited a veddy high brow classical music publication. He liked good music and bad, but he wasn’t a rock & roll guy.
