Three words... Crash Test Dummies.El Guapo said:Canadian Music like Helen Ready, Celine Dion, Alinis (I uckin nuts) and on and on.
However, they do get points for Rush and BNL. Thanks, Eh!
Can we deport them?El Guapo said:I wish there was a way to blame Debbie Gibson and Amy Grant on Canada!
Of course, I detest Celine. But I still don't find her voice as bad as Mariah "I sing in a range only dogs can hear" Carey. She has the same effect of ambulance sirens to my friend's dogs.TexasPlanner said:No, but we sure can blame Celiene "whale-calling" Dion on them! ha ha ha!

My secret shame is the Neil Diamond Double Live Ablum - Singing Gypsy Rose at the top of your voice is wrong for any young man. Perhaps that explains things.Tranplanner said:Helen Reddy's Canadian? I had no idea.
Embarrasing fact#1:
As a very young kid, I used to like listening to my mum's Helen Reddy LP... "I am woman hear me roar"!
Coffee out the nose. Thanks Kel!KMateja said:And my grandmother wonders why he's gay.
I can listen to Hank Williams (Sr.). so I don't point fingers. Just don't ask me to watch the Lawrence Welk reruns on PBS.bturk said:I confress to listening to Mom's Bobby Vinton polka LP's
And I thought Milwaukee was the only place they aired Lawrence Welk reruns. Do you also have a radio station that plays polka music? There are worse things to plan by.Tom R said:

I think Don and Mike should be on my guilty pleasure list. Rob and I actually went through withdrawal after moving to a non-Don and Mike city. On our ride home from work, we would turn to each other and say "I wonder what Don and Mike are doing right now?" sigh.Mike DeVuono said:Those annoying Howard Stern wannabe's Don & Mike.
I can not stand them.
There are a couple of them that play some kind of slavic music part of the time. Even the announcers speak whatever. Easy listening is also bad along with new wave. I remember a Far Side cartoon showing a man listening to new wave "music". The caption was "Charlie Parker in Hell."Michael Stumpf said:

Just so you know, I was an Oompaloompa in my school's production of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" (the book, renamed "Willie Wonka..." for the movie. I am proud of that!Trail Nazi said:Plus that song that the umpaloompas (?) sing in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
NO, you are a munchkin not an Oompaloompa. Those things scare me, I can't watch that movie because of those icky creatures. Plus, that song is so hideous and it gets stuck in your head!Zoning Goddess said:Just so you know, I was an Oompaloompa in my school's production of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" (the book, renamed "Willie Wonka..." for the movie.

AMEN!!!Downtown said:I want to drive nails into my head everytime the kid rock/sheryl crow song comes on the radio. way too over played.
True, true Sister! I do too.Downtown said:I want to drive nails into my head everytime the kid rock/sheryl crow song comes on the radio. way too over played.
Not to mention the fact that neither of the "singers" is in anything remotely resembling a key. That song is truly horrible!Downtown said:I want to drive nails into my head everytime the kid rock/sheryl crow song comes on the radio. way too over played.
The guy across from me blares the "lite rock" station daily. I think Celine & Mariah have a far more detrimental effect on sanity than does Rage Against the Machine.Planderella said:I'm not sure if I mentioned this in an earlier post, but the draftsman whose office is across the hall from mine likes to listen to Enya once every blue moon. Sometimes I want to go over there and smash his computer into little pieces.
Here's the new plan, sir, it's called "killing in the name of.."Seabishop said:I want to see what would happen if you took a planner right out of grad school and made him listen to nothing but Rage Against the Machine for weeks while he developed a comprehensive plan for a large city like LA or Detroit.
That should be in the "confessions" thread...The Irish one said:smooth jazz makes me horny baby. How's that for creepy!
