I'm not ashamed for liking it but I'll get a few looks when I play some Bjork or some Elton John. Jeff Buckley is a beast as well.

Nothing wrong with Diamond. My favorite album of all time is Hot August Night.

Rod Stewart was mentioned.... nothing wrong with Rod - especially his days with The Faces. A very underrated band

Man up. There's nothing shameful about their music. I love the stuff they do with Sia Furler. The Pageant of the Bizarre is an absolutely fantastic song.

I've got a few oddball songs in my rotation... a couple lesser-known Cyndi Lauper tracks, for example... that get funny looks (or even better - "Who is that?").

I've been trained on piano in theory and taught jazz piano for a few years... Hi my name is Matthew and I have an unusual obsession with the counting crows studio albums.

I call them "guilty pleasures" but I'm not really ashamed of them.

Examples: REO Speedwagon, Poison

I like some of their stuff, but can't really tell you why and won't argue with you if you think they suck. But I don't think ashame is the right word.
