What's the Most Embarrassing Tune on Your iPod?
I have a firm policy of never allowing my iPod to shuffle at will in mixed company. The reason is simple: a pure shuffle is likely to pull up an unsettling mix of Nirvana followed by Edith Piaf followed by John Cage. It also reveals the darkness at the heart of my musical soul. We chatted about our favorite bad movies last year. So, what's on your iPod that you wouldn't usually want to admit to, even among friends?
I'll own up to an unhealthy admiration for Justin Timberlake's work with Timbaland and that on a fairly regular basis, I have to "bring the Sexyback" in the car going to work. How about the rest of you?

Sadly, one word: Cher
No, though that song, I might be able to pass off as "ironic" cool. No, it's "Believe," very uncool, but it's there along with Madonna's "Ray of Light."
You know, you laugh but that's actually a quite historic tune because it's the first Top 40 hit to employ Autotune. I remember when I first heard it, I thought, "Wow - that's really odd what they're doing to her voice in the chorus."
Now everyone and his guest DJ is doing it.
Vampire Weekend, and Bob Dylan's Christmas album.
Those choices are far too hip for this thread, Someone. I suspect that you're hiding Air Supply's "I'm All Out of a Love."
I have a few TV theme songs!
Waltons, Match of the Day, Grandstand, Ski Sunday!
Bet Davie has The Indoor League theme tune.
I guess I'd be most embarassed by some selections by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. And the fact that I tend to sing along while on the treadmill. At the gym. Yikes.
That sounds like a YouTube clip that I need to see, Betsy - make it happen!
