Top five most embarrassing CDs...
Since Rawl has started hounding me via his blog about choosing my five worst (i.e. most embarrassing) CDs, here we go. These are in no particular order:
1. Creed: My Own Prison
Sadly, I must admit I own this CD, and I actually kind of dug the music for short while. And then I started listening to the lyrics. Damn Christian rock bands. How dare they infiltrate modern demon music and sing about their god?
2. Noluno
This self-titled EP is just utter gothic crap. I guess I should be happy I didn't pay money for it. I got it when I was reviewing CDs for Extreme Magazine.
3. The Rembrandts: LP
Don't ask, man. Just don't ask. This dates back to when I used to watch television ... and ... Friends. Not a happy time of my life.
4. Culture Club: Colour By Numbers
I have to admit I paid about twenty bucks for this CD in a lame attempt to connect to the music of my childhood. Every once in awhile, I'll throw it in. But dammit, what was wrong with Boy George? Heheh.
5. Corey Hart
Narrowly beating out Corey Hart: The Singles for a place on this list, I think this self-titled comeback album is more embarrassing than the singles collection. Why? Well, like with Culture Club, I think trying to somehow make a connection to the music of my childhood isn't all bad (although it is embarrassing, I guess). However, when you buy the comeback album of a pop artist you listened to when you were eight years old, there's a problem. I should seek therapy ... but I really liked Black Cloud Rain. *cry*
The Big-Ass Bonus Albums
I could've filled this list with Weird Al Yankovic CDs. I own a few, including Dare To Be Stupid, Greatest Hits, Bad Hair Day and UHF. It would've been a pretty crappy list if I'd had all of my Weird Al discs, which I can honestly say I no longer listen to, on that list ... but I think they deserved dishonourable mention.
Are you happy now, Rawl? :P
