Good one. You know they have a "greatest hits" cd?


Just thought of one-"Something's Going On" by Frida. She was in Abba back in the day and when you listen to the song, you can hear Phil Collins on the background vocals.


Also, "Trouble" by Lindsey Buckingham. I still love that song.

This song's cheesiness is off the charts. At the same time it is irresistably catchy. Great example of what this thread is all about.

I find it also helps if you were grade school age throughout most of the 80s because you'd never get away with liking such a g## song if you were in your teens or 20s when the song was a hit. Definitely a guilty pleasure for many people.
