Just 'rediscovered' my Erasure collection.

Some of them tunes are fan-****ting-tastic!

Nothing wrong with Erasure. I went to see them last year - campest show I've ever seen!!

Westlife
Take That

(still harbouring fantasies of being asked to be the new "fifth" member of either)

By whose standards are we measuring "shouldn't"?? 😀

Judging by the responses so far I'm not ashamed of any of the bands I perhaps "should" be 😆

Manowar!!!!

"Blow your speakers"
"All Men Play on 10"

the list of manowar songs that just shouldn't be heard is endless but it just seems to hit the spot on occasion.

Erasure at Belfast Ulster Hall 88 or 89 was my first ever show. I went as my elder sister was ill and she couldn't get a refund for the ticket. I went with her best friend, who happened to be the foxiest wench at our school at that time. We continued to "go out" for six months which was great for me and terribly annoying for the Gaelic football jocks in the year above me at school.

Another one for Girls Aloud. Perfect pop. Love it!

Voodoochild, the main reason you shouldn't like most of your list is cos their time has past! Move on man! (China Crisis were absolute shit though) 🙂

Nothing wrong with Gary Glitter's music.
Gary Glitter was never convicted of being a paedo anyway. Paul Gadd was. (except in the press)

Jeez, most of these are hardly embarrassing at all. I however have both of
Taylor Swift's albums (and her Christmas EP) 😆

Absoluteley being romantic here.
Apart from flog of seagulls, I didn't had any records of these bands.
Just reminds me of an era when music seem to be so much better then.

......and eh, DezB, we've moved on indeed. 😉

Girls aloud, sugarbabes, hanna montana, JLS, Justin Timberlake you name it, I'll hum along. In my defence I have a 9 year old daughter and after all, all my stuff is "sooooooo boring", and has no style whatevvvvvveeeeer.
