What's a song you love that no one who knows you would ever guess?

[dolo amber]

I love the song "Whipping Post" by the Allman Brothers. I told my husband this today and he nearly plotzed. :D

[datasuspect]

1. stay awhile by the bells

Into my room he creeps
Without making a sound
Into my dreams he peeps
With his hair all long and hanging down

How he makes me quiver
How he makes me smile
With all this love I have to give him
I guess I'm gonna stay with him awhile

She brushes the curls from my eyes
She drops her robe on the floor
And she reaches for the light on the bureau
And the darkness is her pillow once more

How she makes me quiver
How she makes me smile
With all this love I have to give her
I guess I'm gonna stay with her awhile



How it makes me quiver
How it makes me smile
With all this love I have to give you
Guess I'm gonna stay with you awhile

How it makes me quiver
How it makes me smile
With all this love I have to give you
Guess I'm gonna stay with you awhile

Stay with you awhile


I guess I'm gonna stay

[dolo amber]

8. Haven't heard this one

But as the rest of your taste seems to be quite lovely, I'll assume this song is dreadful. :D

[datasuspect]

10. it takes a certain type

to plumb the vile depths of obscure lite rock that gives me such sweet torture.

[blondeatlast]

33. The song is bad enough, the vocals are just creepy as hell, IMHO.

I was a teen when I first heard it and I still found it disturbing.

[Guava Jelly]

2. Jaded by aerosmith

I stopped caring for aerocmith during the Jamies got a gun Dude looks like a lady Phase.
But for some reason I just love the Song Jaded

9. I can't say that's all that surprising by other things you've posted

you liked... but I also sure you'd know better than I. ;)

[swag]

3. "Beautiful Stranger" by Madonna.

Though when I hear it in my mind, Madonna's voice is singing slightly different lyrics, for example

...haven't you heard?
I ate the turd
of a beautiful stranger.

Anyway, I like the song very much.

[dolo amber]

4. Those aren't the lyrics?

I suddenly like that song a lot less. :(

[swag]

5. I think you should give Madonna the benefit of the doubt.

Whether she sang it or not, she probably did it.

[dolo amber]

6. Surely there would be a book

:shrug:

[swag]

51. Taking "scratch 'n' sniff" to a whole 'nother level.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

7. No turds here.

Haven't we met?
Somekind of beautiful stranger
You could be good for me
I've had the taste for danger

If I'm smart then I'll run away
But I'm not so I guess I'll stay
Heaven forbid
I'll take my chance on a beautiful stranger

I looked into your eyes
And my world came tumbling down
You're the devil in disguise
That's why I'm singing this song

To know you
Is to love you
You're everywhere I go
And everybody knows
To love you
Is to be part of you
I paid for you with my tears
And swallowed my pride

Beautiful stranger...
Beautiful stranger...

If I'm smart then I'll run away
But I'm not so I guess I'll stay

Haven't you heard?
I fell in love with a beautiful stranger

I looked into your face
My heart was dancing all over the place
I'd like to change my point of view
If I could just forget about you

To know you
Is to love you
You're everywhere I go
And everybody knows

I looked into your eyes
And my world came tumbling down
You're the devil in disguise
That's why I'm singing this song to you

To know you
Is to love you
You're everywhere I go
And everybody knows

I paid for you with my tears
And swallowed my pride

Beautiful stranger...
Beautiful stranger...

11. Edelweiss

Edelweiss, Edelweiss,
Every morning you greet me,
Small and White,
Clean and bright
You look happy to meet me..

Blossoms of snow may you bloom and grow,
Bloom and grow forever

Edelweiss Edelweiss
Bless my home land forever

12. An old standard.

Sunrise, Sunset

Who knew?

[LaurenG]

13. Dragula by White Zombie

really!

[ghostsofgiants]

37. That's Rob Zombie solo, not White Zombie.

Fun song though, haha. Reminds me of my youth. (Yeah, I'm young, haha.)

[Fuzz]

14. As an almost 40 year old white guy . .

a friend of mine was kind of shocked I was able to answer nearly all of the rap and hip-hop questions when we played the 80's version of trivial pursuit. He's a black guy who grew up in Harlem, I'm a white guy who grew up in whitelandia in WI and CT. He couldn't answer one heavy metal question either, that punk! :D

[Madrone]

17. LOL - as a 34 year old female cracka I get the same.

Everyone that KNOWS me though, knows how I roll. ;)

[Madrone]

15. Since U Been Gone - Kelly Clarkson

http://youtube.com/watch?v=tuVf3EHKSIw

[SOteric]

16. How 'bout a whole cd?

Slayer, Reign in Blood But let's just keep this between us, m'kay?

[dolo amber]

18. I always knew you were secretly Satan's mistress

:rofl:

[SOteric]

29. Tsk.

Dudette.

I'm ~sooooo~ telling Satan you said that. :P

[dolo amber]

32. Please do!

Send Satan a big :hug: for me! :D

[buddhamama]

20. yep. never would have guessed it

Reign in Blood is a classic. According to some, this would make you a heathen, devil worshiper

[SOteric]

26. I'm guessing that

several renditions of the Ave Maria, the Pié Jesus and Pannum Angelicus don't counteract that then, huh?

[LaurenG]

23. My husband just said

Nice... good choice, lol. :rofl:

[idgiehkt]

19. "You Don't Love God..." by Rhonda Vincent

This is a gospel/bluegrass song and it gives me chills every time I listen to it, for me it's about bigotry...

"There are many people
who will say they're Christians
and they live like Christians on the Sabbath day

But come Monday morning, til the coming Sunday
They will fight their neighbor all along the way

{chorus}
Oh you don't love God, if you don't love your neighbor
if you gossip about him, if you never have mercy
if he gets into trouble, and you don't try to help him
then you don't love your neighbor, and you don't love God

In the Holy Bible, in the Book of Matthew
Read the 18th chapter in the 21st verse
Jesus plainly tells us that we must have mercy
There's a special warning in the 35th verse

Oh you don't love God, if you don't love your neighbor
if you gossip about him, if you never have mercy
if he gets into trouble, and you don't try to help him
then you don't love your neighbor, and you don't love God

There's a God almighty, and you've got to love him
if you want salvation and a home on high

If you say you love him while you hate your neighbor
then you don't have religion, you just told a lie..."

this song rocks, it's really beautiful and Rhonda Vincent and the Rage are an awesome bluegrass band.

[Droopy]

21. That tune by Gnarls Barkely

I'm usually a rock and roll guy, but I really dig that tune.

[thefool_wa]

24. That makes you Crazy!

:) :)

I love that song too.

[dolo amber]

25. I'm not sure it's possible to dislike that song

;)

[ghostsofgiants]

38. Seriously, Gnarls Barkley = the awesome.

[thefool_wa]

22. Everything She Wants by WHAM!

OK, some know that this is true but not many.

I am all about the industrial and grunge music of my youth but George Micheal and WHAM! are my guilty musical pleasures and I am totally cool with that!

[Dulcinea]

28. "Freedom" by George Michael.

I love that song. And Gnarls Barkley's song, too, stays in my head all day! *boom-boom-boom-boom-boom*

[thefool_wa]

30. Freedom from "Listen w/o Prejudice"

or Freedom from "Make it big"?

Both are good, hard to make a call which one is better as they are so drastically different in theme and style.

George Micheal is the second greatest song writer of all time! There, I said it.

[Dulcinea]

31. The one from "Listen without Prejudice." eom

[hotforteacher]

52. Awww, jumpin' Jesus on a popcicle stick...

I fucking LOVE that song!! I put it on every roadtrip CD compilation I make. Pauliedangerously and I have a particular soft spot, however, for "Father Figure".

I think it's the "I'LL BE YO DADDY!!!" part at the end that makes it delish.

:evilgrin:

[leeroysphitz]

27. For me the question is moot as nobody knows me well enough

to accurately asses my ECCALECTIC musical tastes. :crazy:

[blondeatlast]

34. "Nightshift" by Siouxsie and the Banshees. It even disturbs ME that I like

it, but oh, well...

For your enjoyment:

Only at night time I see you
In darkness I feel you
A bride by my side -- I'm inside many brides
Sometimes I wonder...
What goes on in your mind, always silent and kind
Unlike the others...
Fuck the mothers kill the others
Fuck the others kill the mothers
I'll put it out of my mind because...
I'm out of my mind with you
In heaven and hell with you...

My Night Shift sisters
Await your nightly visitor
They don't bother me
No they don't bother me

The cold marble slab submits at my feet
With a neat dissection...
Looking so sweet to me -- please come to me
With your cold flesh -- my cold love
Hissing -- not kissing
A happy go lucky chap -- always dressed in black
He'll come to you, he'll come to you

My Night Shift sisters
With your nightly visitor
A new vocation in life
My love with a knife

Fuck the mothers kill the others
Fuck the others kill the mothers
I'll put it out of my mind because...
I'm out of my mind with you
In heaven and hell with you...

[Broken_Hero]

35. Rod Stewarts

Forever Young...:)

[dolo amber]

36. You're pullin' my leg

NO ONE likes that song. :D

;)

[Broken_Hero]

40. nope

I would never pull anyones leg....:P I also got a thing for...The Final Countdown(by Europe) too...but don't tell my metal head friends, I hate it when people point and laugh.....:)











:hide:

[RedStateShame]

39. Hello It's Me

The only Todd Rundgren song I like. Most of my friends, as many people do, forget that song until they hear it, and respond, "Oh, yeah, is that a Todd Rundgren song?"

[dolo amber]

41. I quite like that song too

:)

[crim son]

42. Sympathy for the Devil, Stones.

But it would probably be more frightening for you to know I also love virtually everything in Bach's Well-Tempered Clavichord.

[FredStembottom]

43. Jump- Van Halen

...they would otherwise not be surprised by anything else I like - since a wee lad, I have always grazed the entire spectrum of music.

[Aristus]

44. "Ships" by Barry Manilow.

I'm not a headbanger, but I rock hard enough that no one would guess that song.

[saltpoint]

45. Dolly Parton's recording of "Plane Wreck at Los Gatos."

She sings the hell out of it. One of the best vocal covers ever.

[saltpoint]

46. "Rag-Time Cowboy Joe."

I've loved it since I was 4 years old or so. It's never left my head.

"...How they'd run, run, run
When they heard the fellow's gun
Because the western folks all know
He's a high-falutin', rootin-tootin'
Son-of-a-gun from Arizona
Rag-Time Cowboy Joe."

[intheflow]

47. "You'r Nobody 'Til Somebody Loves You" by Dean Martin

I hate all that lounge crap from the '50's and '60's. Except for this song. I can't get enough of it. Go figure! :shrug:

[mitchum]

48. "Take To The Limit" by the Eagles...

I HATE everything else by them, but that song is sublime

[lost-in-nj]

49. Paddys gone

by Anthoney and the Johnsons


My wrists hurt
My heart's empty
Paddy's gone
For a long time

Loved that man
Scared without him
Paddy's gone
For a long time

My wrists hurt
My heart's empty
Paddy's gone
For a long time

Loved that man
Scared without him
Paddy's gone
For a long time

My wrists hurt
My heart's empty
Paddy's gone
For a long time

Loved that man
Scared without him
Paddy's gone



lost

[dolo amber]

54. Antony and the Johnsons can DO. NO. WRONG.

in my book. :thumbsup:

[SKKY]

50. "What a fool believes" by The Doobie Brothers

[hotforteacher]

53. Force MDs' "Tender Love"

Can you tell that I spent waaaay too much time in my room alone listening to Rick Dees Weekly Top 40 in the early 80's?

[dolo amber]

57. Oh..................DEAR!!!

:rofl:

Yeah...what was that Atlantic Starr song? Always? Oh fucking hell... :rofl:

Good times... :D

[hyphenate]

55. I dunno

My musical taste is all over the place. I DO remember when I first "came out" about loving classical music oh so long ago, that some people were surprised. But that was about 20 years ago.

Other than that, I couldn't tell you what people might be surprised by.

[Critters2]

56. I listen to country music in my car

Everyone freaks out when they learn this. I just find it mindless toe-tapping stuff.
