Man, Celebrity has some solid, non-anonymous songs on them. Being catchy and individual is the most we can ask from a boy-band.

Quote from: KimJongSick

But my very first CD was Smashmouth's "AstroLounge," and I still have/love it to this day.

That was my first cd too, but I started hating "all star" after hearing it everywhere, so I decided no more Smashmouth.

Good news - it's hip to listen to pop music now for some reason.  Don't ask me why.

I still do not listen to "AllStar". I listen to "Waste" like a stoner stuck-in-the-70s rocker listens to "Stairway" though.

My Dad bought The Killlers' album. Does that count?

If that counts, well, most of my dad's music collection has me red-faced. Like his Mary McCaslin collection. *seppuku* Her cover of the Beatles' "Help!" makes the baby Jesus cry.

I think being embarrassed by your parents music is an entirely different topic. I mean, half of your musical taste as a teenager is accounted for by hating what your parents listen to.

Although my mom likes Sigur Rós, so she's probably indier than I am.

Wow your mom has such good taste.  My parents mostly listen to crappy music. I grew up having to endure Celin Dion, Shania Twain, Silly "inspirational" christain artists, and the same Beach Boys Best Of album over and over again.

My mom has a Carpenters CD with a cover of Ticket to Ride on it. It's the song with every ounce of fun taken out of it. It makes me cry on the inside.

I've got some from some pretty terrible pop-"punk" (the quotes make it ironic) bands I liked when I was 15-16...like Fenix TX or New Found Glory.

I also have some mortifying         /screamo discs, like Finch and AFI.

Oh goodness.

but the music sucks because the keyboards don't have the cold/mechanical sound they had but a wannabe techno sound that it's pathetic for Rammstein standars.

Poor you... except that AFI is good... and not screamo. Maybe you think they're not good but it still ain't embarrassing.
How about Slipknot? I only just managed to sell that shit.

Matchbox Twentry's "More Than You Think You Are".

I got "Mad Season" as a gift, and there were enough songs I really liked to justify the purchase.  I cans till listen to Mad Season.  Not so much MTYTYA.

Sad to say... I do have that first Simple Plan CD stored away somewhere. And I do have the From Autumn to AShes CD "Fiction We Live." Haha...yes. It seems like yesterday when I rocked out hard to those.

I've never had the misfortune to actually hear a SoD song. I saw an interview with them on Popworld, though, they seemed lacking in intelligence.

Although I can't say I am embarassed about any CD's I own (and I own the Anastasia cartoon soundtrack) but I do own Cannibal Corpses Gallery of Suicide and I hate it. I despise them.

i still am not sure why I own it.

I could never get over the sheer fucking BLANDNESS of Cannibal Corpse. And don't start me on fucking Six Feet Under.

I remember buying it, getting home, opening it, putting it in the stereo and going.

Oh yeah, I fucking hate these guys.

And yet, because I refuse to NOT play any album I own, I will spin it once a year to remind me why I hate them, and then it will go back in its case and not come out for another year.

Ah well.

Unlike my friend I don't own a Nickelback cd though.

I bought System of a Down's "Toxicity" album like 2 days ago. It's supposed to be a really embarrassing album to buy, but after listening to it, it's really not that terrible. I hadn't heard any of the stuff on it until I got it, I actually really like it.

I think I can top you all.

Spice girls, and Backstreet Boys. Two Backstreet Boys albums.

In my defence I was seven.

Although I don''t remember it I'm told I cryed when my spice girls tape melted.

I sitll get payed out to this day.

I had a troubled (younger) youth.


I have no shame for the Spice Girls. I still own and listen to my Spice Girls cassette tape.

On that same note I own and am slightly ashamed to say I still listen to, my very first CD, N*SYNC - s/t. I was ten when I got it. I don't admit it to people who don't know me well but I can admit it.

Of course you should feel all shame for the Backstreet Boys because N*SYNC was horrendously superior.
