Guilty Pleasure Songs
By 
Introduction
What exactly makes a guilty pleasure song? I'm not sure. Why should you feel guilty about a song? However there are just some things that make you feel like less of a man for admitting.
Wake Me Up Before You Go Go- Wham

Just look a the picture on the link. What that make a great retro poster on the back of your door or what?
Borderline- Madonna

I like this one so much it doesn't even feel guilty. Of course I did feel a little guilty when my wife caught me singing it to myself in the bathroom mirror with her brush as a mic.
Dirrrty- Xtina Auguilera
Love the video on this one. Leather chaps. Boxing. Fog machines. This thing has it all.
If I Had a Million Dollars- Barenaked Ladies
Those clever Canadians. I could sing this song all day while eating fancy ketchup.
Don't Know Much- Linda Rondstat Aaron Neville

I actually kind of like Aaron Neville and his mole.
Man in the Mirror- Michael Jackson
Never Gonna Give You Up- Rick Astley

The Aussie wonder boy. Can't believe this guy didn't make it. I also wonder what a guy like Rick's financial situation is. Like is he a millionaire? Or is he selling insurance in Sydney? How much did he make at his peak? Is he gay or straight? Questions abound.
We Belong Together- Mariah Carey
My wife argues that all her videos look the same. Either she's in a bubble bath or lingerie or some hookerish clothes. I countered with the "Honey" video where she's kicking ass and riding jet skis. I probably need to put some more Mariah Carey on this list.
Kiss the Girl- The Little Mermaid Soundtrack

You might start wondering about me at this point.
A Whole New World- The Aladdin Soundtrack
Zoe B and I belted this whilst driving through the English countryside one fine afternoon
Sk8ter Boy- Avril Lavigne
there may be more avril to come as well. She's just so punky
I Wanna Sex You Up- Color Me Bad
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_Me_Badd
Color me cheesy. I think these guys were the inspiration behind dick in a box.
Mmm Bop
This might be one of the ultimate guilty pleasure songs. It just makes me me feel good about life though.
Wishing Well- Terrence Trent Darby

Guilty pleasure or not. Can I get a ruling? What ever happened tot that guy? I always thought he was cool.
Beautiful (Christina Aguilera)
Just found myself singing this at the top of my lungs. Dogs are looking up at me with quizzical looks on their face. Even they are embarrassed for me.
Incidentally I was in Vegas for a Bachelor Party and Christina was playing. I've never seen so many hotties all dressed up before a concert. Seriously. There isn't even a second place in my mind.
I actually wouldn't have minded seeing the show. Guilty

Let Her Cry (Hootie and the Blowfish)
Too popular too fast, but they seem like good guys all around. Good tunes if a little over commercial. Screw it, I like em.
Copacabana (Barry Manilow)

Just who shot who?
Check out his hair on the wikipedia link above. Fabulous!

Man in the Mirror is my favorite Michael Jackson song.
Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On (the Titanic song)"
...as this plays I can literally feel my testicles vanishing, and my penis starts turning into a vagina...

The people at work make fun of me for listening to Kelly Clarkson but really, she's great fun. Oh, and yay for Disney songs. I just rented Aladdin recently, actually, and I sang along!
Ah! Color Me Bad was one of my first concerts! I loved that song! As well as Slow Motion, that was another one of their greats!
Just heard Rick Astley on the radio yesterday morning. He still gets a lot of play back here!

OK, at least I totally had a Wham! poster on the back of my door! Maybe it's still there?...
I can just picture you driving down the highway belting out "don't know much" in your highest possible voice...good stuff
I am always singing that Barenaked Ladies song! I love it.
Yay!
Yay!
I love "Faithfull" by Journey. I BELT it out when it comes on the radio. Soooo wonderfully cheesy.
Excellent list! "Spice Up Your Life" by the Spice Girls is at the top of my guilty pleasures - just try to sit still when you listen to that!
no JT on this list? really? because i love me some sexyback...
I heard that Rick Astley was living in Sausalito on a boat with Kelly Clarkson occasionally I think I see them eating at Sailors but just the other day I thought I saw them at Starbucks---interesting couple
I was bothered that you had Kelly Clarkson, but the fact that you have Wham completely makes up for your Clarkson fetish. You're ok in my book.
Lil Bro, Rick Astley had two number ones. I am sure that it is sickening how easy his life is.
