The most embarresing music you like?

I like some spanish, latin singers and bands, maybe because i am spanish born and raise in the dominican Republic, it is very  embarresing with the latin music world these days. In my opion, most of latin artirst  are really  sell out and make very thrashy music. the worst of them all what save it is the lyrics which it ok

americans bands that i am embarres

maddona ray of light is her best work ever

the cars the hits

tears for fears  the hits

and some 80's stuff

thank god i do not like duran duran any more i think there so gay and thrashy.

I like VDGG, but they embarass me, mainly because Hammill is so over the damn top melodramatic, hes embarassing.  I just find him very overblown most prog i can listen too with other people but not VdGG at all, (or GG's "Knots" )

System of a Down isn't emberassing!
They even got what you can call progressive tendencies. First of all, they progress for each album, taking basis in a mix of thrash metal and alternative they're influenced by everything from armenian folk music to black metal.

They're even mentioned in ProgArchives definition of progmetal:

ProgArchives wrote: In recent years, the most commercially viable category of prog has been progressive metal. These bands are usually happy to be known as progressive, and produce very long pieces and concept albums. Several of the leading bands in the prog-metal genre (particularly Dream Theater) cite pioneer progressive hard-rockers Rush as a prime influence. Meanwhile, other heavy metal bands not generally considered prog-metal, such as System of a Down, have nevertheless incorporated prog-influenced elements like bizarre shifts in time signatures and tempo in their music.

I actually saw them 2 days ago here in Norway, they rocked! Even though I had high expectations they still really impressed me, they was much better than what I've seen on video clips. Improved, or shall we say, progrssed.

My favorite band of all times, the band that got me really interested in music. I recomend everyone to check their stuff out.

On Topic:
I'm not really embarassed by listening to anything at all, but I guess most people think I _should_ be emberassed when I listen to Lene Marlin. She's a pop-artist here in Norway, I only like her debut album thogh.

well i have to admit that i really enjoy listening to 80s pop/disco like bonnie tyler, alphaville, modern talking and roxette, well nobody's perfect right? 

I'm not embarassed by any music I listen to, but I am emabarassed by the names of many bands (also prog bands) I like and their lyrics.
