hahaha I'm kind surprised to see these names here.

Most of my friends make fun of me for liking Nickelback, I can't help it. So since then I only admit it when I know there other fans around.
Fuck the pop culture.

also: i like some cher songs, and i fucking LOVE hall & oates, chicago, and tears for fears. and a wide plethora of "new" country. and a lot of easycore. i get considerably less elitist with each passing day, i think.

Erasure is amazing. Vince Clark is the instrumentalist/mastermind in the band and was the mastermind behind Yaz and Depeche Mode before he quit those bands to form Erasure. So needless to say they are one of the best synth-pop bands of the 80's and 90s's

Here are some amazing Erasure songs to check out. Also look for live video of these songs, their live performances are intense.

"Always"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSMeUPFjQHc
this video is amazing and this one of the most well known Erasure songs

"A Little Respect"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLIDQNQ8 ... re=related
this is probably the most famous Erasure song, and one of their best songs

"Chorus"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5yOtJ0Kffc


"Chains Of Love"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uttV1VZUgQQ

Eraure's cover of the Abba song "take a chance on me"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSnLGdpj ... re=related
Andy Bell makes a better drag queen than Vince Clark does

"Home"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1DSqYGeuQ4

I can't imagine feeling shame for anything I listen to. Like I can't see myself alone in my car or in my apartment listening to anything and imagining someone there with me and feeling the need to deny liking it for fear of shame. And I listen to a lot of stuff I assume most people on here would find shameful. Mostly dance music (especially freestyle and Italodisco), late 70s through mid 80s pop/rock, new jack swing, and so on and so forth.

I'm ashamed to admit I listen to screamo, because most people just assume that screamo is bands like greeley estates.

Yup.
