Kate Bush isn't a guilty pleasure, she is awesome, pure genius.

I grew up on the diet of Heep, Purple, Yes, ELP - all the Prog/Rock/Metal bands of the 1970's and had very little time for anything else. I got married in 1981 and in 1985 the whole thing fell apart. I spent a lot of time trying to make sense of it. Then I heard one song that suddenly gave me the kick up the backside I needed. That song was so far out of my comfort zone but it spoke to me. I no longer pretended that we would get back together, I moved to a new town on a job transfer, made a whole bunch of new friends and since then I have never let music genre limit me. That song was/is "Carpenters - Hurting Each Other". It changed my life and also opened a world of music I had denied before. A lot of those you guys mention - Earth Wind And Fire, Kate Bush, ABBA, the brilliant Alison Moyet, Frank Sinatra. But to pick one - Roy Orbison, especially the In Dreams album.

[@AbbeyRoadkill1]

Roy Orbison might be the most underrated artist in the history of music. His voice was otherworldly and he was one of the most innovative songwriters in rock 'n roll.

[@rocky-o]

Great post Terry. I guess it's about emotional maturity and it takes most of us a long while to really find our identity. It's a lifetime journey. The Carpenters and Roy Orbison recorded some of the greatest music of all time. It's a revelation when we 'discover' these artists for ourselves. Glad it all worked out for you.

As a life long hard rock / metal head I've liked all of Prince's stuff up through purple Rain. (4-5 albums).In high school (early 80s) my black light posters were Judas Priest, Led Zeppelin, ACDC. Then non black light posters were Iron Maiden, Van Halen and Prince. I've recently saw a video called "Fallen brother" by Kreator and they paid homage to many heavy musicians who passed up through 2017 and Prince was one. I knew then I wasn't alone.

[@b2tall239]

As a 56 yr old who's always been a classic rocker with an emphasis on metal and hard rock, I've always liked a lot of '70s pop (a bit of '80s pop too) as well as lots of '70 soul and R&B. I also worked in the dance club industry in the late '90s and early 2000s and was surprised when I found myself liking some techno. Also, I got dragged to a Shakira concert and absolutely loved it. Much more rock-oriented than I was expecting. I would definitely see her again.

Union is probably my favourite YES album 👀

[@knightvisioniixv]

Under Wraps is awesome! Sure, it's the furthest removed from the organic Tull we love, but the musicianship and arrangements are tight, and the songs are super-catchy. But, this is coming from someone who loves Kraftwerk, Thomas Dolby, and early-'80s Zappa (including the later Synclavier experiments), so it didn't strike me too funny when I first heard it. Can't say if Ian Anderson was listening to any of these artists, but there are some similarities here and there. At different points, I heard that both Martin Barre and Ian Anderson thought highly of the album. Don't know what they think as of current.

Sweet! Thank you....Ryan is the Kate Bush guy and Nick (me) is the one doing an impression of my dad. Haha we're both bald schleps so I can see the confusion. Thank you so much for your support!

[@johnmichaelwilliams6694]

@@Ihatecensorship1 Sorry, Nick. That.’s what happens after a couple of martinis. Thanks for being a great sport about my mistake. You four make a great group to watch and I enjoy your dislike of ‘hipster’ matters.

[@johnmichaelwilliams6694]

@@Ihatecensorship1 And Nick - thanks for the mention of First Aid Kit. Been listening to them this morning and you're right - really great voices.

What would happen if you wore a Kelly Clarkeson T-shirt at a Cannable Corpse gig

[@mutate34]

it would make what Alice Cooper's chicken got look like a gentle crowdsurf

[@TheMrHavish]

Or worse wearing a U2 shirt at a Slayer concert!

[@pablocruise9514]

I want to see Slayer cover Barry Manilow

[@alexandergilles8583]

Pablo Cruise I want to see Barry Manilow cover Slayer

[@kevinismawayoflife4660]

I wore my Iron Maiden shirt to a Justin Bieber concert. Took my girls back when he was still a cute tween. Best part of that concert.......Literally no line for the men’s bathroom. I was in there by myself!!!!

[@celticbird2398]

I have no issue telling people I love these bands but usually people are surprised when they find out I like groups or acts like: -Coldplay -Alicia Keys -Marilyn Manson -Kanye West -Beach House -Santigold -Joanna Newsom -Janelle Monáe

[@pvdguitars2951]

Absolute consensus about how great Lady Gaga and Kate Bush are. I couldn’t agree more. How about some Sarah Brightman? She’s fantastic too. But also some of the eighties Diva’s : Kim Wilde, Nena, Nina Hagen. I’m not ashamed too admit I like that stuff. Definitely more enjoyable than Bon Jovi or your average Nu-metal band!

[@chetgreblowski7811]

Pete, me and a bunch of coworkers go to a local watering hole every friday after work to unwind. We play the jukebox ( mostly 70's hardrock and metal), but i always sneak in some Manilow and we all sing out loud along wiith the song.

[@scottevans5580]

10,000 Maniacs and...Natalie Merchant is a goddess!

[@RanterInShades]

My biggest guilty pleasure song is the song "Get Up" by Korn, from their dubstep collab album "Path of Totality". Never understood dubstep, but always found that song catchy. Limp Bizkit and Insane Clown Posse are also names that I bring up in these discussions.

[@martymartin2894]

I've a similar t shirt story. Back a few yrs ago I was going to see the eagles in dublin. I had a megadeth rust in peace shirt on. I didn't know that mettallica were playing dublin the same night. As myself and my brother were walking towards the eagles show we were meeting droves of mettallica fans walking in the opposite direction all heading to mettallica. I must have got stopped about 10 times by guys saying hey ure going the wrong way the mettallica gig is this way. True story.

[@jockmctodger]

🤣

[@mycubiclepenguin868]

You should do a show about albums/bands you think you should like, but you don't. Love the videos, Pete!

[@immanuelgrau]

I love the Pat Boone "In A Metal Mood" album, it's as daft as it is amazing.

[@DokkenSabbath]

I like most genres of music, so I don't really have any guilty pleasure albums, although I do have guilty pleasure songs. I do have a couple of albums that I own, that aren't exactly something I tell people about. Here they are: Taio Cruz - Rokstarr Britney Spears - ...Baby One More Time Nine Inch Nails - Broken EP (I generally hate this band, but I love this EP because it's heavy.) Wham! - Make It Big Miranda Cosgrove - Sparks Fly Kelly Clarkson - Greatest Hits, Chapter 1 Jennifer Lopez - On the 6 My taste is all over the place and weird anyway. I'm a metalhead, first and foremost, but I also love Pop, Jazz, Blues, Classical, R&B/Soul, Funk, Folk, New Age, Alternative, Avant Garde, Pop-Rock, I even like early 1900's Ragtime music! So, my collection is bizarre. One minute it's Britney Spears, than not too long after it's Cannibal Corpse! I'm just a music junkie. I'm not super picky.

[@donhadfield2835]

One word... MADNESS!!!! Fun & cool Working Class Ska

[@caseymalish9350]

You said it yourself. Horror movie time of the season calls for one thing.. Ranking the Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Streets series

[@253timeandtimeagain2]

Both Craven's films (the first and New Nightmare) are absolute horror masterpieces. So good!

[@luis4434]

Please do a part 2. Great video!!!

[@JakeSwan94]

I love Brian Adams, Paul Young and Duran Duran.

[@martinfalk8597]

It doesn't matter how much new music I discover. ABBA will ALWAYS be among my favorite musical acts. Timeless high-quality pop music. As a swede, it's fun to see you guys mentioning First Aid Kit and The Cardigans. Sweden never fails to deliver quality music, regardless of the genre.

[@kayfimt7769]

Hey solidarity with Chris, I’m a Kelly Clarkson fan too! Her second through fourth albums are pretty good, she can rock.

[@orioletes]

Guilty pleasures like Lady Gaga, Fleetwood Mac, Blondie, The Cardigans, Earth Wind and Fire, Kate Bush... are not "Guilty Pleasures", they're having a nice f****** taste. What a great group of guests you have Pete, congratulations!!

[@ziderzime9261]

Love Babymetal, and i am not guilty about it.

[@eric_in_florida]

Yep, until Yui dropped out. Just not the same.

[@kitoyobeni1]

For all the hype and support, I just don't get it. Not for me I guess...

[@paulemery55]

It was a real hoot to see how diverse an appreciation of music you guys have. I shared a fondness with most of the offerings. Pete, there's no reason for you to be embarrassed by your 3 picks (though admittedly I did blush for you). Great fun!

[@laurencegoodwin4047]

Hit me like a hammer, Huey Lewis is great. Shakedown , Bob Seger. There’s something about KC and the sunshine band that I find so cool too . Red light, Billy Ocean makes me dance anytime I hear it and I’m a terrible dad dancer . Lemmy had it right when he said “ there’s two types of music , good and bad “ I’m married to Metal but stray occasionally with something a bit different !

[@griefforest1870]

I'm not sure I can trust a person if they don't go nuts whenever Power of Love is playing in Back to the future... ;)

[@MetalJesusRocks]

Neil Diamond is a guilty pleasure for me. My best friend in high school played Hot August Night all the damn time and at the time I hated it cuz I was into rock and metal… but over the weeks and months…I grew to understand just how amazing Neil is as a songwriter. All good stuff!

[@rotesgarados6475]

I love Avril Lavigne. I listen to all Metal and Rock Genres but sometimes i need her Voice in my ears/head.

[@araso9859]

Everytime I Listen to "Girlfriend" It makes me feel like I'm 10 again

[@directive-4]

This deserves a part 2 for sure :) really enjoyed it! My guilty pleasure is Bryan Adams - great songwriter ignoring the cheesy lyrics of course :)
