Comment:

My friend made a list of ten embarrassing songs she liked and I volunteered to burn them all onto a CD for her. Of course, I added ten of my own selections to round it out! :) Odd tracks are my picks, even picks are my friend's. (As you can see, she has a weakness for the dramatic ballads, I tend to go for the cheesy radio pop.)
Of course not all of this stuff is BAD, but none of it is particularly cool either- especially when played back to back! :)

A great concept, and one likely to have list lurkers like me thinking "Hey, I LOVE that song!" over and over...This stuff is usually intensely subjective...Rhinestone Cowboy straddles the fence between a great pop song (at least production-wise) and extremely cheesy pop...And Mandy...well, lets just say that from an arrangement and production standpoint, it's a 10, but the emotion is sooo maudlin that it almost instantly became a parody of itself...All told, GREAT job!

Uh, it's "a sense of humor." Look into it.

Hmm... ya know, I *like* that Linda Ronstadt song and have a weakness for the Beatles track as well (the Beatles are my favorite band and McCartney is my favorite Beatle), although the latter never really appealed to me until I got a "no strings/choir" version of it.
