Here's a few off the top of my head that almost immediately get looks from others when they pop up on my playlists
I ran - A Flock of seagulls
Once in a Lifetime - Talking Heads
Take on me - a-ha
I believe - Blessid Union of Souls
Kiss from a rose - Seal

I'm stopping before this gets out of hand....

Most of those are completely legit. Anyone that says they didn't like the Flock of Seagulls song when it was on the radio is lying their ass off.

Probably true...but I wasn't born until several years after I Ran was released! I find that most of the people I'm around have never heard of these songs...much less understand how I like them!

Bryan Adams - Summer of 69


Maybe I suck but this song is nothing to be embarrassed about liking. Summer of '69 is awesome '80s rock.

I think I liked this song more after the video came out.

We all did, the transition from that video to this is staggering.

Once in a Lifetime is truly great song that is only fully appreciated once you are out of college, working with a wife and home, along with all the responsibilities that come with those things. Other great Talking Heads songs include Burning Down the House, Artists Only and Swamp.

I felt like turning myself into the cops after seeing her in that Rolling Stone photoshoot back in the 90s.

The part the music is barely audible in the background with the cook stirring makes me laugh my ass off every time. Wish my kids would think this was hilarious.

Then I really hope you stuck around for the post-credits scene!

And just like that, I will never jump in to a debate on your side again. As in ever.
Completely understandable.

It's like coming out as a klansman.

More for the music than the lyrics, since my great grandfather was a Perez Prado fan, but yeah....I don't change the station when it comes on.

As I've said before, this song is clearly a love letter to a death row inmate from a psycho who has never had a boyfriend.

I don't care who you are (a serial killer)
Where you're from (the nut house)
What you did (carved up that sorority house with a chainsaw)
AS LONG AS YOU LOVE ME (I have gotten your entire body tattooed on my back)
Damn dude. You thought this out.

Breeders - Cannonball
Dee-Lite - Groove is in the heart
Barry Manilow generally
Never be embarrassed for liking anything from the Breeders. That's a well respected band.

This is not something I would play around other people, but something I will absolutely crank to 11 while driving down the highway.

This video has everything: bad production, bad graphics, bad lip-syncing ... but great song.
