What's your favourite guilty pleasure song? I have several, but the most shameful is probably "I'm in the mood for dancing" by the Nolan Sisters
(should I get me coat?)

As for driving music - I often plug my iPod into my car stereo and singalong to all my cheesy favourites on the way to/from work (I've even created a genre called "singalong"!). My biggest fear is that someone will have hidden in the back of my car (I check behind the seats!).
I'm not worried that they'll hurt me - I'm worried that they'll hear me :scared:

The first track was the Nolan sisters, I'm in the mood for dancing...... I almost wet my pants with excitement as I had not heard it in donkeys, and was madly singing and driving along :

Re: Guilty Pleasures
I have a load of vinyl, some I inherited and won't mention, I do have Iron Butterfly, In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, I still love to play that with the phones to hear the phasing. I bought a TEAC rig so thet I can copy some of my vinyl onto CDs.

Hands, touching hands, reaching out
Touching me, touching you
Oh, sweet Caroline
Good times never seem so good
I've been inclined to believe it never would

Bollocks, I'm gutted.
At least I have the taste to stick to Mr. Oizo (remember Flat Eric the hand-puppet in the Levis ad?) and other obnoxious electronica
