This is different from the "most embarassing cd thread".

In this case list the type of music you have a secret love for.

Mine are:
Surf music (Dick Dale, The Lively Ones, etc)
Spaghetti Westerns Music (Ennio Morricone, love ya man!)

    Surf music is a good one. I enjoy good lounge jazz. The theme from "A Shot in the Dark" by Henry Mancini is great (It was also the theme for the Inspector in the Pink Panther cartoons). Another thing I absolutely love is Parliament/Funkadelic.

All that and more. Exotica, spaceage like Martin Denny, Esquivel, Les Baxter, Filmcomposers: Nino Rota, Morricone, John Barry, Komeda, Cinecitta music.

Innocent 'chewinggum' pop like Monkees, Carpenters, Poppy Family, Middle of the Road (Bee Gees) and 70's pop like ABBA. Musicals with Julie Andrews, old Disney songs. 80'synthpop A-ha, Eurythmics, Depeche Mode, Human League.... French pop from the 60's France Gall, Francoise HardyHeart and Sylvie Vartan. Scott Walker and Jacques Brel. 60's chinese and Korean pop. 

Lee Hazelwood, with or without Nancy. Nina Simone, Johnny Cash, Ledbelly, Early 20's jazz like Bix Beiderbecke, Fred Astaire and Bing Crosby. Novelty acts like Tiny Tim, Mary Schneider, Bruce Haack, Incredible Stardust Cowboy. 

That's my not so obvious tastes as a progrock fan.

+ non commercial Hip hop and new american folk. And Classic, Jazz and metal, of course.

No secret love. I like what I like and that's it. From Bowie to AIR, from AIR to Jorge Cafrune, From Jorge Cafrune to Sigur Rós; Sigur Rós to Victor Jara, Victor Jara to The Residents; The Residents to Prokofiev...

My tastes in music are very eclectic, and I can't say there's anything that I have a secret love for.  I'm not embarassed or ashamed at all by any of it.  I do like a lot of music used in movies... For example, soundtracks by Philip Glass, Zbigniew Preisner, Shigeru Umebayashi,  Klaus Doldinger, Vangelis, and even Giorgio Moroder.  Heck, I love the Spinal tap soundtrack -- and not just because it makes me laugh.

I guess I don't talk much about my infatuation with Madness' Our House, Gary Numan albums, or The Queen Hater's I Hate the Bloody Queen.

I didn't said there was anything wrong, just said that his music is my secret love.
 
It's funny, in 1991 i was in Chile, and there was an Amnesty International concert with Peter Gabriel, Sting, Ruben Blades, Sinead O'Connor, Laura Cassals The New Kids on the Block (Who invited them??) and Jackson Browne called Rock from the Ashes.
 
I read about it in the paper and went only to see Peter Gabriel and Ruben Blades.
 
I couldn't care less for Sting, Laura Cassals and of course for The New Kids (Totally out of place, on an interview they weren't able to explain why Chile was chosen by AI Ouch).
 
I didn't knew about Jackson Browne, I thought he was something like Motown (Well , thought Jackson was his last name) but then appeared Jeff Porcaro modifying the drums personally (Probably one o his last gigs), and then came Jackson Browne, I could remember seing him but never knew his name, he was singing with a young woman that I guess could be Vonda Shepard.
 
That night he played three songs Lives in the Balance (With Los Kjarkas members playing Zampoña and antaras), For America and another song I can't remember.
 
I was delighted, the guy really cared for his show even when he only played three songs (The New Kids were scheduuled for 6 or 7 songs but the public didn't received them too well, the Amnesty International supporter -I'm not one but hated them equally- is not normally a boys band fan) and the music was simply astounding, people really was thrilled but Peter had to close the show and there was not time for more.
 
Since that day I'm a fan.

I remember that. I'll never forget listening "The new kids on the block" in the list of scheduled artists. It was quite bizarre, to say the least. I'm laughing even now... I thought their singing was a crimen against the human race at the time. But at least they were there. And at least Mark Whalberg realized that he had to run for his life...

I don't really have  "secret" musical genre love, but I do like Sting. Does that count?
