"Brother my Brother" and "Don't say you love me". Both from the dub of the first Pokemon movie.(I never really understood the hate the former got, sure it may not be a good song, but it did kinda fit what was going on.)

Nope, not turning out to be a guilty pleasure so far. They have some interesting new ideas, but they don't know how to execute any of them, and Oli is still pure Ear Rape incarnate. And I mean that in the worst way possible.

But they're still not Attack Attack!.

Aw, it hurts my heart to hear that the Bunnymen are a guilty pleasure. Heaven Up Here and Ocean Rain are five star albums. As for mine, I will always harbor an affection for The Beverly Hill Cop OST which was on constant rotation during my childhood for some reason.

I have a strange liking for Tik Tok. Although I cannot possibly express my displeasure for the lifestyle that the song glorifies strongly enough, damned if it isn't a catchy tune.

Limp Bizkit. Also, some Blink-182 songs.

I should add that most traditional metal works as a guilty U Npleasure. I was never a fan of the likes of Metallica or Iron Maiden (or even At The Gates and kinda Dark Tranquility, even though I mostly listen to melodic death metal), and that makes me the worse metalhead ever. Not that I care...

Heh, I'd wager that a great deal of metalheads hold a deep contempt for Metallica for varying reasons.

@ Apples: Same here. Also I liked their cover of "Holy Diver" more than the original. ._.

RE: Limp Bizkit: Rollin (Urban Assault Vehicle) and Boiler were actuary good IMO.

^ Don't Go Off Wandering is pretty good, just would be much better with someone who sings well.

This song is so catchy. Heck, I really like all the New Boyz singles I've heard.

Counterfeit by Limp Bizkit, One by Creed, Bawitdaba by Kid Rock.... I could go on but I'm depressing myself.

Kid Rock in general is like guilty pleasure itself distilled into an artist.

Some other songs I'd count as guilty pleasures include "How Am I Supposed To Live Without You?", "Right Here Waiting", "I Want To Know What Love Is", "Can't Fight This Feeling" and "When I See You Smile".

Honestly, I like a lot of music in the late-eighties soft rock category, though I guess it's not taken very seriously by a lot of people.

I am ashamed of many things. Having Limp Bizkit's Greatest Hitz on my iPod is one of them.

Everybody Wants To Rule The World.

And a few Journey songs.

Then again, 80s pop/pop-rock shouldn't be considered a guilty pleasure.

Oh, and yes, The Final Countdown.

What's with the "slapping"? I'm pretty sure that in RL Pyro wouldn't appreciate getting slapped just because you think he's being dumb and needs re-educating (for some reason).
