Up to Geo but suspect he is of the spirit of the polls in general..  pick what you want.. vote as you want. What matters man.. is what we are doing now.. having fun, tossing off songs with no shame like we were 15 years old again... and checking out some things we may have never heard before.. and even better. .stuff we may never want to hear again.  LOL

Sounds like they may have stole that from The Rolling Stones' Satisfaction....hmmm are they another guilty pleasure or required listening?

Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.

I've seen Journey live at least 10 times...all post Steve Perry.  That being said, they are on PA and don't count for this poll.

yeah... the Power of Ratt compels us however.. they were too good to really consider them a guilty pleasure even on a damn prog forum but I couldn't resist. There were always a number of us here that were fans... to be honest..even some of the haters were likely closet fans. Remember how Tony R dogged me everytime I brought them up. Yet  I always thought Tony liked them but enjoyed taking a piss on me (and everyone of course) LOLHeart

Sorry micky, but you knew I would be a +1 on Ratt.  Why is this poll any different than the other polls?  I was basically posting guilty pleasures there too.  90% of my collection is "guilty pleasures".  Given I grew up on Golden Oldies and glam metal, and most days prefer AOR to Prog.  I might have to dig really deep to come up with a "guilty pleasure" that will please this crowd.

I consider these three of many of my guilty pleasures, not just the songs themselves, but pretty much everything that all three bands do.  There are so many that I could list, but these three came to mind while doing this post.


1. Squirrel Nut Zippers: Hell


2. They Might Be Giants:  Particle Man



3. System of a Down:  Chic n Stu

Okay, now for my third and final installment. Everyone hates this band, but no one hates them as much as working musicians in the south where their inevitable song request is usually met with well known smart-assed zingers that every working musician has memorized. It doesn't matter if your band has been playing funky jazz all night, someone is going to want to hear some skinerd.
BUT. there is one song I do like. If you can make it to the 3:45 minute mark, check out the excellent keyboard buildup with Al Kooper on the Mellotron and Billy Powell on the piano.

pretty good.. but if you want my vote.. .find that German cover of Mendocino you mentioned in the other thread.

In fact..  that might be worth 2 votes LOL

I still laugh.. thinking about the one time I did Aretha for Karoke... absolutely destroyed You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman..  got a standing O.. and saluted the audience by falling down drunk off the stage. 

Actually.. I do have quite a good singing voice. I did lead vocals in the bands I was in and was recruited into the choir of the church me and Spawn of Satan attended when we trying to do the church thing after i suppose one of the elders saw us play (didn't say too much about that considering where we were the house band was  considered the local gay bar)

^ Re Micky and Journey: I once did a fill-in gig with a band that could nail that closing vocal part and they were naive enough to give me a mic. I have no idea how off or on I was when I joined in, but that was one of those one time only experiences.
