Why are some people ashamed of the music they listen too? you hear it all the time things like "i am ashamed to admit i like the Bee Gees"
"i'm ashamed i listened to hair metal in the 80's" "i used to like Milli Vanilli im afraid to admit" etc.....why be afraid? you should be proud of the music that you like or liked..how many times have you hidden the fact that you are a big Prince fan over the years just not to sound uncool? shit once a girl i liked pull a Donny Osmond (soldier of love) tape out of my pocket in an arcade and laughed like hell..but so what thats why music is so special there is something out there for each individual taste...get those KC and the sunshine bands tapes out of the closet and be proud! and enjoy them  Check it out ...Shiny Toy Guns R gonna blowup VERY soon and bring melody back to music..you heard it here 1st! http://www.myspacecomment...theone.mp3 | |

Probably because they're afraid of appearing unhip. 
Screw what's considered hip, enjoy whatever music touches you in some way.

Just like how you have blaze-orange Hammer pants in your closet, but you don't jog around the neighborhood in them.  "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

Man, my musical tastes vary u was raised on so much music that, when you look at me u couldnt even guess what exactly im into.
Music is Music when its done right, thats the only thing i abide by.i couldnt even put together a list of all the stuff im into it would totally boggle the mind LOL. but i'll try starting with stuff i grew up with Youngbloods Rascals every Motown record basically James Brown Janis Joplin Jimi Mad Lads Carla Thomas Sam n Dave James Gang Smith three dog night Funkadelic Melanie ( Lay down was the shit) The Poppy Family 5th Dimension Impressions Moody Blues Stones Beatles Animals Ronettes crystals Andy Kim Miriam Makeba Tommy James n the shondells the list goes on and on and on and on... | |

Celion, Phill Collins, Michael Bolton, old STING, Rod Stewart, Mariah, Whitney, Bon Jovi basically most artist that do love ballads.. am not Saying whether these artist are cool or not but there seems to be a trend to HATE on POP Ballad singers, they dont get respect, You wouldnt get allot of people admitting to those being their favourite artist because its seen as uncool, whether you want to argue its talent or not is a-non finish arguement. these artist still had to work and fight for a record deal just the same as any other Rock, Funk artist. i do not wish to dissrespect anyone who listens to anyone, but i think Audience put it best when he said Screw what's considered hip, enjoy whatever music touches you in some way.

Life is too short. [Edited 3/11/05 4:52am] i agree... i was just making a statement alot of people cant stand the 5th dimension or Melanie.. etc etc. i mean shit i heard Cherish by david cassidy growing up and i thought he did a bang up job of it and ive admitted it on several occasions.
what the general concensus says about whats "hip or cool" is bullshit. if u dig it and then dig on.. cant worry about what people think about what your ear goggles see and feel ya know? | |

Well, for starters for the same goddamn reason why I don't parade around with a t-shirt that says "I prefer ladies' shoes over their tits". Some things are just best kept a-secret, no matter how much pleasure they might provide you behind closed doors. A matter of taste is not a completely open matter. It has always the communal aspect included as well. | |

Well, I like early 70s glam rock, even though I didn't grow up with it because I was just being born. Bands like Slade, The Sweet, Bowie, etc. which many consider to be cheesy and campy, (with the exception of Bowie perhaps) but I love it. My favorite though is T.Rex.

Actually, I've been meaning to figure it out myself because of course I want to do a Jimmy Page one. Big surprise there.

This is fitting, considering that there's a Stryper thread on this very formum!

Good question. I'm not ashamed of any music I like. If others don't like it, that's fine, but I've never been ashamed or embarrassed by my taste in music. | |
