    If I liked a song, why would I call it crappy?
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    And thus the eternal argument was reignited

    Oh no!  Forget I asked.

    (Seriously, I wasn't aware it was such a thing.)
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    (It comes up anytime someone starts a "guilty pleasures" thread. Anywhere. Every time. That I've seen)

    (Now you mention it, I do remember arguing with Guitar Bizarre about that once, I think, but he doesn't post here.)

    At least as a musician, I know enough about some of basics of music to comment on the quality of a song from a set of determined standards. For example, I think "Wonderful Tonight" has a rather banal melody and cheesy lyrics, especially compared to some of Clatpon's other works, but that doesn't mean it isn't fun to listen to every once in awhile. Sure there's definitely subjectivity involved and someone can have a different set of base standards than I do, but at least generally, the idea of something being bad or at least lacking, but having at least one element that makes it listenable or partially enjoyable seems pretty common.

    I'm not sure I explained that well.

    On my guilty pleasures, Shinedown's entire discography.

    I guess I tend to think of guilty pleasures as being songs that are widely regarded as "trashy" or low-quality, but which you enjoy anyway. Stuff that nobody regards as being "great" but nevertheless there's something about it that you like.

    I could regard "Wonderful Tonight" as a guilty pleasure. It's that main guitar lick that makes it work.
