Bad Songs

I was at a friend's house the other day and the radio was on. I never listen to the radio anymore. I guess it is because I don't drive much now. A Shania Twain song came on as I was leaving and out on the street, I found myself humming the crappy pop tune. I guess its true, even though I consider myself a music snob, there are a handful of bad songs that I really like. Here is my list of

7 Crappy Pop Songs That I (secretly) Like

1) Still The One- Shania Twain very typical of a pop love song. I have to admit, I like the idea of the romance of this.

2) Close To You- The Carpenters I love The Carpenters and it is all my mother's fault. This was the easy listening music of its day. There is just something about Karen Carpenter's voice that I find mesmerizing.

3) I'll Be There For You- Bon Jovi I guess this just takes me back. All of a sudden I am 16 and dreaming of love.

4) I'll Be- Edwin McCain The ultimate mid 90's cheesy one hit wonder.

5) Wake Me Up (Before You Go-Go)- Wham! This song was bad, even down to the video. However, it ALWAYS makes me happy. Hearing this is like a shot of good mood. I used to listen to this during my first stint at summer stock, when I was sitting at a sewing machine 15 hours a day about to jump out the window.

6) Ready To Go- Republica Makes me want to dance like no one is looking. You have probably heard this song on a car commercial or something like that. It's just fun.

7) Dance Dance- Fall Out Boy This band is a bit odd. They are a pop band that wants to be an emo band. If you are 15, you probably think they are original and you've never heard anything like them. If you are a bit older, you know better. I still really like this one.
