If there's one thing that my husband and I don't argue about on a daily basis (His obsession with golf shirts -- eep, a Moroccan themed bedroom -- double eep), it's music. Sure we've got our own personal tastes. He tries to convince me of intrinsic musical value of "traditional irish music," like some guy singing about wearing no underpants has some higher meaning. And I continue to explain to him that while I don't listen to the Dixie Chicks, I still think they are three very talented girls -- although I admit the little [yeller] singing one does sort of resemble Jack Black with a southern accent.
So, when out of the goodness of his [cheap ass] heart he offered to load up all his downloaded music onto my new iPhone so I could actually listen to music during the day, I had absolutely no qualms.
Now don't get me wrong. Letting someone else put their music on your mp3 player is pretty damn brave. It's one thing to pick a song on a juke box or request something from the DJ because when it comes down to it, if you happen to like Stacey Q. and her one song and her kinky blonde hair atop her size -2 body, you can always just stop the urge to sing along and point the blame on some other poor unsuspecting soul.
"I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I. I need you."
But my husband has really great taste in music. He listens to all the local college alternative stations and writes down new music to download by groups whose names are rashes or shirt patterns on scraps of paper that I get to fish out of the washer in small tiny bits. So not only would I be getting some great music, but chances are I'd be upping my cool factor as well, you know, just in case I find my large pregnant ass and two children in a situation where I'd need to discuss some obscure song.
And not surprisingly, he didn't disappoint.
That was until I hit what could only be described as "My Husband Dancing With Light Sticks at Some Bad Club in 1996."
There it was. In all its ass bumping, arm pumping, female voice singing about who knows what because who the hell cares we're drunk and dancing with light sticks MUTHAFUCKAS! song.
It's the bastard iPod song that everyone has. The one song that you just fucking love for whatever reason. And the one song you do not want anyone to know that you actually know every single word of -- that is if it's possible to sing along to some dj's club remix of a remix of some crappy European song.
Of course, I shouldn't talk considering I can sing all parts (including rapper and Female "Hook" singer) to Good Vibrations by Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch. If you don't believe me, just ask all the poor souls who listened to me sing it a few months back.
And I was stone cold sober.
What's your bastard iPod/mp3 song? C'mon, spill it.
Heya i'm for the first time here. I came across this board and I find It truly helpful & it helped me out much. I am hoping to present one thing again and help others such as you helped me.

I'm scared to write it down, but here goes:
Beep by the Pussycat dolls
It was on the soundtrack in my Step class and I loved the beat and when I asked the instructor what song it was b/c I had to have it on my IPOD workout mix, she looked it up on the CD cover and just laughed at me.
Then my husband laughed at me when I asked him to download it off of ITunes for me...
And my best friend laughed at me when it came on during the Random play cycle on a recent road trip.

Right Kind of Love - Jeremy Jordan
Penny Lover - Lionel Richie
Sometimes - Britney Spears
I Wanna Be the One - Stevie B
Forever Your Girl - Paula Abdul
Everything Changes - Kathy Triccoli
There are three less-than-popular bastard songs I've been looking for for years. Maybe y'all can help a sista out:
Happy - Deja Vu (I think?) ("Happy is what we are when we're together...")
Love Me All Up (Don't know the artist, but the song was a hit in the very early nineties by a female singer)
Romeo and Juliet (duet, don't know the artists - "I'm your Romeo, you're my Juliet")
Must hide in corner now.

I think at least a third of my iPod is filled with showtunes. I love a good Broadway musical.
My truly shameful songs?
T.a.t.u (remember them from 2002?) - I have the whole album, not just their one hit (All the Things She Said)
See You Again by Miley Cyrus - I'm SO not 14, but apparently wish I was.
...and I have several traditional Irish songs, too. But they're performed by Gaelic Storm, so that gives them a little bit of coolness.

Don't you just want to lap dance on your hubby (or someone else) when you hear that song???
Posted by: Amy in NY | June 19, 2008 at 08:46 PM
Soooo many SSBs I could list... Lots of 80s stuff (yes, I've got Adam Ant CDs, yes, lots of New Wave too...), plus some really dodgy stuff like John Denver, Neil Diamond (LOVE Neil!), disco and... perhaps my ace card... BARRY MANILOW. If I hear the opening coconut plonking noise to "Copacabana", I just HAVE to get up and dance. Always have, always will.
And I'm never ashamed by my taste in music. My husband hates just about all of it, but I don't care.
Oh, and I ADORED "Confessions on the dance floor" by Madonna, too. Know all the words to Hung Up, as does my elder daughter (6 and a half)... She's now "into" Rihanna, God help me...

and the one I am totally ashamed of is...
Eminem - "Without Me" which starts out "two trailer park girls go round and round" and the rest is $@&%, &$%# #*^$& and other various and sundry words that you don't want your kids to repeat - EVER!
Truth be known, I love that song!!

Britney Spears-Oops I Did It Again.
Hoku - Dumb Blonde
Spice Girls - Wannabe
House of Pain - Jump
Abba. Period.
Duran Duran. Period.
80s music. Period.
Miami - Will Smith

Stayin' Alive - You still know who.
Funky Cold Medina - Ton Loc
Bust A Move - Young MC
La Belle Et Le Bad Boy - MC Solaar
I'm Too Sexy - Right Said Fred

This post made me LMAO! My DH has been kept thoroughly up-to-date on cool music by my sister, who is uber-cool. I, however, have been stuck in the 90s. I sparkly heart love 90s hair bands. Guns N Roses, Def Leppard, Motley Crue, Poison, etc. And my 4 yr old and 2 yr old can both sing (or shout) most of Welcome to the Jungle. They call it "that Jungle song", LOL! My SSB song would HAVE to be the Backstreet Boys "I Want it That Way". Don't tell. I know every word to that song and generally tend to sing it as loud as I can, after I roll up all of the windows, of course :X

I pretty much have no shame. You know how the New Kids On The Block are making some kind of sick, sad comeback? Yep, I'm that girl at the grocery store, mouthing every word coming through the speakers.
But I listen to just about every sort of music there is, and I pick things up quickly. So you'll hear me singing NKOTB, but also Billy Joel, The White Stripes, Marilyn Manson, Weezer, Poison, REM, and occasionally Reba McEntire.
Yeah, like I said, I have no shame.

MY HUSBAND is Indian (yes from India) and he loves music from here (he loves Biggie Smallz (am I saying that right) and Reggae) MIND YOU THE MAN IS AN UPTIGHT CPA, that lived in the burbs is WHOLE LIFE. IN his IPOD there are at least 20 Indian songs, IF they ever ever end up in my pod, and one of their shrieking voices comes blaring at me - it is over. Done.

I never did get into Britney, but I tend to stick with the "oldies" like Right Said Fred's I'm Too Sexy and Brim Full Of Asha by Cornerstone. Love those songs- not afraid to admit it. But AM embarrassed at my hubby's constant love for hair bands. Can't get over that. It's painful.

HEY - LOL Ihave no idea but I simply LOVE HIM. I have gone to see him twice and once it was horrific - I had two drunk assh0les behind us screaming out to damien all the things they wanted to do to him - ugggg I can totally get it when you are like 12 but at 30..Seriously get some class.
If he sings out of tune,never noticed because I am no expert and to be honest I listen to his lyrics... MY HUSBAND says that if he ever wants to commit suicide and he is in doubt he will listen to ONE Damien Rice song to put him over the edge!!! YUP he is not a fan.. Hopefully it is not Women like a man.
AND THE LITTLE MAN IS SO FREAKING HOT...
BTW speaking of hot can ANYONE tell me when did Chris Martin STOP getting beat by the ugly stick....HE IS LOOKING PRETTY DARN Caliente

My 'Pod has recently become communal (although I never got a memo) and I can't begin to tell you the crap that PA has put on there. But since we're confessing our own SSBs (and after some of these confessions I feel no need to pretend mine is PA's fault)....mine's that "Wild Wild West" song from (gulp) the 80s.

Kayla -- this song I speak of was stuck between two Damien Rice songs.
Which made it a big worse. And what is with Damien Rice and him singing JUST slightly out of tune. Not so loving that.

Um...I actually do have Stacey Q on my shuffle.
And my list of bastard songs would take an entire post. I actually wrote one way, WAY back in response to a meme tag.

You want a nice LOVELY Irish guy that will appease both you and the hubby - Listen to Damien Rice, he is all folky, college crowds LOVE HIM and his music is KILLER..
Okay back to the crap I listen too... I can belt out any Fiona Song like a deranged bitter woman when really I have ZIP to be bitter about and From time to time (2x a week) the soundtrack to Chicago and Sweeny Todd (broadway soundtracks) go on in my car and I belt out EVER SINGLE ONE OF THEIR SONGS and EVEN go as far as pretending to play the string insturments:)

Everyone has at least one SSB Britney song that they know and love.
(Or is that just me?)

oh man. my mp3 player has so many types of music on it.
I would have to say...the ones I ALWAYS sing along to, are Cher. Heh. Half-breed, Black magic woman, the beat goes on, gypsies, tramps and theives.. ohhhhh so many. :)
and yes. I do fully realize I am a big old dork!

(gulp...) Mine is "Toxic" by Britney Spears. And trust me... I am DEEPLY ashamed.

I have several SSB songs- all of them by New Kids On The Block!(the old school stuff) I love to dance and sing and pretend I am 12 again! And of course I know all the words(even some of the dance moves) because I had the videos too people! Good gravy, I was obsessive!
Posted by: valerie | June 18, 2008 at 08:06 AM
Wait... what song was it that he put on?
As for me... right now it's "Big Girls Don't Cry" by Fergie. (I know... I KNOW!)

I have the *explicit* version of Golddigger on my iPod and LOVE it. I sing it loudly with my little earbuds in. It's ugly. Sometimes when my iPod gets plugged in at a party I'll hear the beginning with Jamie Fox sounding like Ray Charles and I pounce on the thing to skip it. Geez, I'm a white girl in Atlanta and have a song with the n-word in it. NOT appropriate.

I'm a total dork mom since most of my music consists of movie soundtracks...and not neccesarily good movies either.
