...every once in awhile i listen to top fourty countdowns from the mid-eighties, not necessarily because i enjoy the music, but because i'm mesmerised by the time-warp effect of revisiting period radio programs...

...i disliked a lot of the music then but i appreciated the shared cultural experience of legitimately popular broadcast media, and retrospectively it's a window into a world which no longer exists...

I don't know how she woud react to the entire ratchet & clank OST so I probably wouldn't show her this.

[-] 5in1k@lemm.ee 1 points 3 hours ago

King motherfucking Gordy

[-] gazter@aussie.zone 8 points 9 hours ago

None!

There should be no guilty pleasures in music. Especially dating. It's much more attractive to have a wide range of tastes and be comfortable with what you like.

Post the whole playlist you coward. I wanna see just how bad it is.

[-] andrewta@lemmy.world 13 points 20 hours ago

Doesn't exist. I tell them what I like. If they can't handle the truth then it wouldn't work anyway.

I also don't have guilty pleasures. I enjoy things.

Why isn't it just common practice to just use "they" instead the entirely cumbersome "he/her"?

Like it's just so much easier to type out and say, and it's just better to use regardless.

[-] faultypidgeon@programming.dev 2 points 6 hours ago

Love how the top comment doesn't even answer the question. But TIL, I guess. If I had known this option existed, I probably would have used it. I'm going to play the "not a native english speaker"-card on this one.

[-] Evkob@lemmy.ca 13 points 21 hours ago

Not only is it more readable and aesthetically-pleasing, singular "they" is more inclusive of people outside the gender binary!

[-] Tyoda@lemm.ee 26 points 1 day ago

The fun part is that you'll have people complaining about it either way!

[-] xmunk@sh.itjust.works 20 points 1 day ago

Yea, but the people who complain about "they" are assholes so we can safely ignore them.

Understandable lmao.

"So you like this song called 5 what now? And what did he just call Jimmy Paige?!"

[-] pimeys@lemmy.nauk.io 6 points 20 hours ago

Steely Dan. The worst part would be I won't stop talking about the drum solo in Aja.

[-] BCsven@lemmy.ca 2 points 18 hours ago

I bought a Front242 CD from a record shop once, got home to find out the staff had grabbed Steely Dan CD an put that in the case accidentally. (The days before tamper proof display adapters, where the media was stored behind the counter)

[-] Mothra@mander.xyz 19 points 1 day ago

Darude Sandstorm.

Not even joking

So I put my hands up. They're playin' my song, the butterflies fly away. I'm noddin' my head like, yeah. Movin' my hips like, yeah. I got my hands up, they're playin' my song. They know I'm gonna be okay. Yeah, it's a party in the U.S.A. Yeah, it's a party in the U.S.A.

I don't know what I was expecting, but that was so much more.

[-] spittingimage@lemmy.world 5 points 19 hours ago

I have some Brittany Spears and Backstreet Boys on my gym mix.

[-] Alice@beehaw.org 3 points 18 hours ago

Sonic the Hedgehog soundtracks, specifically the songs with vocals. Haven't kept up with the series in a while but my playlist has songs from everything from Sonic CD to Sonic and the Black Knight. I'm sure some of it is actually good music and some I only like because it reminds me of Sonic.

I guess it'll take a few more dates before I show her What I'm Made of...

Aqua and Toy Box. Dog bless the early 2000’s

[-] Volkditty@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

Obviously the ska.

[-] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 20 hours ago

It's your first date and she/he asks what type of music you like. What's the guilty pleasure you won't tell her/him about?

I love music and hate but being myself (AuADHD weeeee) so, they're going to hear an honest answer. If they're not down with my love of folk punk and what I classify as "shitty punk rock" (you just the kind - overly-compressed, terribly mixed, played by people who barely know how to tune a guitar), well, that's fair enough. Same as if they aren't up for my, AuADHD - neurodivergence can be a bit to handle.

[-] joshcodes@programming.dev 2 points 11 hours ago

I see a potential fellow days n daze enjoyer...?

[-] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 37 minutes ago

Nothing "potential" about it. :)

[-] Karcinogen@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 1 day ago

My workout playlist consists of anime openings and Power Metal. I don't watch anime nor play D&D, but I like the fast-paced and fantasy/superhero style.

[-] Soapbox1858@lemm.ee 2 points 17 hours ago

That's a deep cut right there

[-] davidgro@lemmy.world 4 points 21 hours ago

I will gladly tell them how much I like Weird Al.

[-] Akasazh@feddit.nl 3 points 7 hours ago

That's not really the question, though

[-] AFaithfulNihilist@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago

Over clocked remix

[-] Xiisadaddy@lemmygrad.ml 9 points 1 day ago

I have a philosophy to always expose my craziest parts cuz if they dont like them it eventually wont work anyway so id play cupcakke x mario kart remixes for them

[-] MeowZedong@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 1 day ago

I appreciate this and will do the same. 10 hours of They're Taking the Hobbits to Isengard. Anyone who can make it at least 3 hours and is singing along instead of stabbing me is a go for date two.

[-] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 5 points 22 hours ago
[-] FurtiveFugitive@lemm.ee 1 points 45 minutes ago

Came here for this. I can still recite a crazy number of those songs 20+ years after I stopped listening to them.
