Cheesiest music you'll admit to liking

Yeah, this thread has been done before, but I'm lazy. I was just flipping through the channels this weekend and saw a commercial for Time Life music "Romancing the 70's" and I couldn't stop myself from watching. I probably like most of those songs way more than I'd like to admit, but the one guy I've liked since I was a little kid is John Denver. Annie's Song? Tell me that's never brought a tear to your eye. It's funny because I like to say that he reminds me of my youth. My mom had all of these easy listening records from the 70's and early 80's, but the only one that ever stuck was John Denver.

    Spandau Ballet True is awesome.

    Crowded House Don't Dream It's Over makes me tear up.

    There's so many more. The thread should be called what do you have on your itunes and not on your ipod so people won't see :lol:

    23 million hits for Hadaway?? That's insane. Big club hit in Germany in like '94. I think they claim him as part German or something.

    Tom Jones - absolutely loved him at Glastonbury years ago, although didn't throw my undies

    Gosh I used to love them - but I was wearing a frilly shirt and knickerbockers at the time. New album and tour coming.

    I have a CD of Gregorian Chants

    Sadly most of my CD collection would probably appear cheesy to most people ... :(

    Elton John's music is great to me. I have his greatest hits and like EVERY song on the first disc. All his early 70's hits.
    Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. My dad loved them and kind of rubbed off on me.
    Jim Croce was a master songwriter and singer IMO.
    The Bee Gees defined a style of music and I really like a lot of their songs.
    Neil Diamond. I always think of that line from "What About Bob" when Bill Murray says there are 2 kinds of people in this world. Those who love Neil Diamond and those who hate him. I don't love him but I love his music.
    He who forgets will be destined to remember.

    I used to think that was hilarious, until I saw the post about Yanni before Coldplay, and it made me wonder if that's the best artist for that joke ;)
