What is the song that you are embrassed to say you love?

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by SunsetDreams (a host of the 2016 Postmortem forum).

My two are Call Me maybe by Carly Rae Jepsen and I'd Really Love To See You Tonight by England Dan. Totally sing them in my car.

If you enjoy it, why feel embarrassed about it? That's like me being embarrassed about being an agnostic. Which I am not.

But there is something hypnotic that attracts me to this song.

Although Wilson Pickett's version of the song does give it slightly more credibility in the same way the Isley's Brothers' version of Summer Breeze redeems that tune.

And yes, I have both "Call Me Maybe" and I'd Really Love to See You Tonight" in the same playlist.

But I'll sing it to embarrass my kids - just like any good Mom would do

Mainly my embarrassment comes from not paying attention to the words in songs, then singing made up ones that work (and fit the syllabification of the song). My daughter is ALWAYS getting on my case about that.
