Uncool songs that you like anyway
I heard somewhere that it's uncool to like American Pie by Don McLean, but dammit I do. This is a thread for those songs.

My list would include pretty much every cliché karaoke/wedding song (Livin' On a Prayer, Don't Stop Believin' and the like).

Those are great songs. Total Eclipse of the Heart is my favorite karaoke song of all time. Is it good? No, it's insane. And I love it.ndistops wrote:My list would include pretty much every cliché karaoke/wedding song (Livin' On a Prayer, Don't Stop Believin' and the like).

I love Don’t Stop Believin bc my 6th grade daughter sang it at school talent show and i was stunned at how grown up and bluesy she sounded.

Re: Uncool songs that you like anyway
i always think of a 90s SNL skit when i hear "jump". randy is sandler, templon is david hyde pierce
https://snltranscripts.jt.org/94/94kpoetry.phtmlRandy: Ah, ah, Mr. Templon?
Mr. Templon: Yes, Randy?
Randy: You know the poem I turned in?
Mr. Templon: Um… [thumbs through papers on desk] “Spider Man, Spider Man, does whatever a spider can?”
Randy: Yeah, that’s it.
Mr. Templon: Yeah, I thought it was imaginative and it showed a good sense of rhyme and meter. I was just looking for something a little bit more about you.
Randy: Oh, well I guess I really didn’t understand the assignment. But I have another poem that I didn’t turn in, and maybe I could do it now?
Mr. Templon: All right, let’s hear it.
Randy: [stands and goes to the front of the class] “My Real Poem,” by Randy Balducci. “Ah, can’t you see me standing here? / I got my back against the record machine. / I ain’t the worst that you’ve seen. / Ah, can’t you see what I mean? / I might as well jump–Jump! / Go ahead and jump–Jump!” [bell rings] “Might as well jump.”
[students stand and begin to exit classroom]
Mr. Templon: Okay, tomorrow 140 to 145 in your text. Randy, would you stay for a moment?
Randy: Yeah.
Mr. Templon: [speaks to exiting students] Thanks. Thank you. Good job. [turns to Randy] Randy, I’d like to make an appointment for you to see the school psyciatrist.
Randy: What?
Mr. Templon: Well, I think everyone who heard your poem recognized it as a cry for help. I want you to know that I heard your cry, and I can “see what you mean.”
Randy: Okay, I guess…all right, thanks, Mr. Templon.
Mr. Templon: And, Randy. If you jump, I will catch you.
Randy: Actually, that wasn’t me. That was another guy. But I’ll let him know.
