The thread of musical shame...
Inspired by Heston's championing of Turn It On Again - I dug this album out today and I'm finding I really kind of like it:

Re: The thread of musical shame...
A friend of mine used to be a music journo but wasn't an especially political guy, so on occasion he'd ask for my input before he'd interview more socially minded musicians. One time he asked for some questions before talking to Jello Biafra. I gave him some decent-ish ones—are there any people in Congress you respect? Maxine Waters—but insisted he ask what embarrassing-to-his-rep song would he cop to liking. The answer (which didn't make it into the article, I don't think): Glenn Frey's “The Heat is On.” I so want a chance at some point to heckle him about that.

I...I...think I don't hate the band Live as much as I used to. I mean, I know intellectually that they are terrible. But, dare I say, they have some tasty tunes?

Re: The thread of musical shame...
I didn't know Turn It On Again was in the shame bin, I assumed most people loved it.
This is probably the most uncool song I really love...

My mate's mercilessly take the piss out of me for it but I don't care.

In mitigation Your Honour it is only because it is linked to a very hot summer in 83 (not talking about the weather).

Re: The thread of musical shame...
I’m not a fan however nor do I hate Phil Collins (never understood where the hate comes from). Turn It On Again is probably one one of his best.WestwayKid wrote: ↑09 Nov 2018, 4:44pmThere are some people around here who don't appreciate Phil Collins...Heston wrote: ↑09 Nov 2018, 3:28pmI didn't know Turn It On Again was in the shame bin, I assumed most people loved it.
