I think that Break the Cycle and 14 Shades of Grey are really good as well. Not ashamed.
Somehow you know that the time is right.I like Break the Cycle but I'm not familiar with 14 Shades... this new one though is really something special. They're really snarling and spitting on it!
I actually like some of Kid Rock's material, specifically Devil Without a Cause and The History of Rock (especially the latter, since it covers a lot of his lesser-known stuff). This, coming from someone that considers himself a massive metal buff.
I'm a huge Bowling For Soup fan. I know its completely juvenile goofy pop punk, but i really dig it for some reason. Its not nostalgia for my teen years either, i got into them when i was in my 20s (im 36 now). Cant stand Good Charlotte or Simple Plan or Blink 182 (aside from All the Small Things) but BFS still get regular airplay from me.
Every single song from Phineas and Ferb.
Okay, not that guilty.
“Five exclamation marks, the sure sign of an insane mind.” TPAnything by Hollywood Undead. It's impossible to take them seriously as they embody Pretty Fly for a White Guy, but it's just so fun to listen to them.
Oh my God, are you me? “Ur So Gay” and “I Kissed a Girl” were pathetic cries for attention that made me loathe her instantly. “Hot & Cold” made me hate her even more because it was so f&*%ing catchy, it was irresistible.
Well, I can’t say I agree about “Firework”; lame empowerment anthem that I can’t stand because it started that stupid fad for “uh-uh-uh” stuttering songs like “Heartbeat Song” and “Euphoria” and a dozen other knockoffs I also loathe. But as much as I tried to hate “California Gurls” (referencing two songs I love in the title was just twisting the knife counterclockwise), I couldn’t, even though it was so stupid!
And this coming from someone that would rather stab both eardrums with toothpicks rather than listen to “Bad Romance” ever again.

Confirmed Bachelors: the dramedy hit of 1883!#454: The Born Free album. Except for having T.I. on one track, it was pretty much Springsteen or Seger-esque heartland rock. I also genuinely love "Picture".
"Country Girl (Shake It for Me)" is a definite guilty pleasure. It's catchy, it's harmless, and it's one of the few modern pop songs in Dorian.
Everything I've heard by Nickelback, I suppose. I haven't heard a song of theirs yet that I don't like.
Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go, by Wham! One of the eighties stupidest, but I still like it.
"Tik Tok" by Kesha. I don't really listen to pop, and the lyrics aren't anything wonderful, but I enjoy it. It's good fun.
There's probably some others (a lot of them are pop), but that one really comes to mind.

Hey.I've actually really turned around on Kesha over the years. I think maybe learning more about her as a person might have helped me soften my opinion on her, and honestly, her songs in that era are better than most other dumb party songs out there, and they really don't try to be anything more than they are, which I appreciate. I used to ironically love "Your Love is My Drug", but I think I actually feel like it's an unironically good song now.
As for something else, I'll admit, I really dig Sugar Ray. I don't even care that they're the epitome of '90s watered down sellout rock, they do a good job of making it. 14:59 is actually a really good album.
Insert witty 'n clever quip here.I really like "Fly".
Same here.
I like a few Britney Spears songs. I've always loved the song "Toxic".
I'll also admit to liking that song back in the day.
simple as"Toxic" is the one Britney song I unashamedly like, and I suspect a lot of people who don't like her in general feel the same way.
"Swagger Jagger" by Cher Lloyd. Apparently, everybody hates it, but to me, it's such pop fun that I can't help but enjoy it.

Hey.Disturbed is my guilty pleasure.
You can even put up with its melody being directly lifted from "Oh my Darling, Clementine" of all things?
Insert witty 'n clever quip here.Beatdown hardcore as a genre. Just, all of it.
I'll hide your name inside a word and paint your eyes with false perception.I don't like Young Thug, but I like Picacho.
Coincidentally, they were playing a Nickelback CD over the speakers at Goodwill a few minutes ago.
