Ok, I've always thought Aquarium from Aqua is a real easy-listening masterpiece!When I heard Barbie Girl for the first time I immediately bought that album and brought it to the new year's day party of 1997...everybody was dancing! Even if I remeber that when I was dressing before going to the party I had Silent corner on the stereo...

I used to own the Men In Black soundtrack.  Notice the use of past tense...

Franky Boy - Alle 16 Op een Rijtje, got it for my birthday last year

Franky Boy is a terrible carnival artist with very very bad lyrics and he looks terrible




But it's so insane stupid and idiot that I like it (especially when I'm drunk)

DEPECHE MODE

I own two albums from this group:

MUSIC FROM THE MASSES and VIOLATOR

And I really like thems!

But it's very embarassing when I play one of these albums in my Walkman, people around think I'm listening to dance music! 

I also own a album from A-HA, Hunting High and Low. Didnt very listen to that album but sometimes to remember me good memorie from my childhood. But I'm little bit shy when people comes to see my CD collection!

But you like modern metal don't you so why should it be a surprise?

Slipknot. Certainly progressive isn't it?! When will we see them in the archives? They're such a nice bunch of lads.

Should they be in PA? Maybe, since it is keyboard oriented and the vocal style of Bassie is quite unique at least.

Well, I don't really get embarrassed about CDs I still actually own, and I suppose if I were fashion-conscious enough to feel embarrassed about music - then my most embarrassing possessions would be the prog rock collection. I mean, I love it all, but it's all so hideously uncool. Not that I mind at all, but the whole idea about being embarrassed by music is based upon the condition that othe people can laugh at you for owning it, and seeing as most people don't like prog rock and all its whimsical English silliness I will have to nominate my entire prog collection.

Thereīs no album Iīm embarassed for. I can listen to any kind of music.

Really, any kind. I may not like it all but I sure take a minute to pay attention. Iīve listened with joy mainstream modern POP, 80īs pop, classic rock, heavy metal, thrash metal, speed metal, alternative rock, classical music, electronic music, house, Jazz, Fusion, cumbias (tropical, very simplistic and crappy latin music), oldies from the 50īs and 60īs, Boleros (old style adult oriented music from Latinamerica)....You name it.

 I have news for you. Prog is not the only enjoyable genre in the world.

I will never get rid of any CDs that I bought and don't like anymore.  When I'm an old man I want to be able to look at and hear all the music I used to like. 

As for most embarrassing CDs...I have a few Cradle of Filth albums that I'll listen to from time to time.
