Can't wait to hear what you've all shared. I'll do it tonight. Also glad that Gel Gör Beni is liked by people here.

BTW, this is my favourite Turkish "arabesk" song. Again, I comfortably mention it to anyone, so not a guilty pleasure.

Turkish music is quite diverse and eclectic, perhaps I'll share other Turkish songs in different styles for other polls, if those fit the criteria.

I said "not a guilty pleasure", but if I were in my 20s now, I might have hesitated to share these. You know, no metal-head can easily risk the shattering of their metallic-tough-guy charisma. LOL

@ TCat:  Hysterical!  You gotta think that Ray Stevens smoked some pot in his time.

@ Shadowyzard:  Just beautiful, thank you!

@ Logan:  Love the Badalamenti music for Twin Peaks, part of it's great charm.  And thanks for the Monkees vote.  And I love Nick Drake.  Smile  Those spaghetti westerns had great music and were quite fun to watch.

@ Micky:  Re Bill, ya gotta love a guy who's famous for bashing things with such a great sense of humour.

@ Lorenzo:  In case you missed it, thanks for the Monkees vote as well!  

OK, I think I'm caught up, up to here.  These threads are a little awkward for quick responses.  I often will "thank," someone on a post, either as an actual thank you, or kind of what would be a thumbs up on some other place.  Wondering if it bugs people if I edit sometimes on a quote, to respond to just part, or without the video if it's a response to that....just trying to save people's scrolling so much.

Some of the songs are genuinely good. Nothing to feel guilty about.

lena d'água & atlântida - vígaro cá vígaro lá reminds me a bit of Blondie.

Thanks.

And by the way, I opted to cast my third vote for Lana Del Rey's "Video Games". Love the music and it's so much better than this Video Games, which I have listened to far too much in the past:



I have yet to listen to many not officially listed.

I didn't vote for a-ha, I know it too well and have absolutely no shame in liking it Wink
 
That Madonna song was such a long lost memory, but it was good remembering it.

I liked that RAH Band song at first but it drags on a lot.

So I voted for three songs I never heard before: Squirrel Nut Zipper, The Osmonds (both really fun) and The Shaggs (so comically good).

So, I updated the all videos playlist to go over 100 (now at 106) and I think this has to be worst of the bunch.

Well... nobody should ever feel guilty for the music they like,...
but...
I get very well why most of you feel guilty about these. Tongue

The vast majority of these just don't do anything for me, sorry, it's just how it is. Some of the extended list are much better.
OK, votes then.
I agree with others that Lana del Rey is the best of these, by quite some distance.
After Lana comes Lena - Lena d'Água & Atlântida, fun song that is welcome for replay.
For the third vote I was torn between that religious piece,  Gel Gör Beni, and the Shaggs. The Shaggs is fun and charming except listening to it once seems enough, I got the joke... but listening to Gel Gör Beni for the second time wasn't exactly super-entertaining either. Hmmm, other candidates? Maybe Madonna? But the one out of the competition is so much better...
Oh! Now I realise I haven't listened to the one on bandcamp, that may save me... coming back later...

OK, eventually I played that Shaggs thing again and fair enough, it's still more fun to me than most of the others, so I give it the third spot. The most curious thing is to wonder whether they know how off they are and whether the song works for the listener in the way they wanted it to work. What goes on in these ladies?

Well, this was a fun idea but not exactly a poll that'll add to my collection big time.  Ouch

Maybe it's because when I don't wanna just play video games, I just wanna watch a lame video with a a kid singing really badly about how he just wanna play video games. Or possibly to torture my family? Nah, I think it's masochistic tendencies. Some people cut; I sometimes like to cut my eardrums on such stuff.

This is one of the most irritating ones I know (if you press play, keep the volume low). I'm not a violent man, but I kind of want to punch them (anger is an energy and these guys sort of infuriate me):



And another of the very worst (this one is kind of fun):



Must admit I've listened to all of those multiple times.

^ MY Favourite part of the Vennu one comes at 2:17 with the girl.

"Hey, hey, hey, what the hell do you think of yourself?"

To which he sings

"I always search good in bad
I also search bad in good
Sooooooooo
I am a very good bad boy"
