I'm not sure that one of the most beautiful pieces of music in the world qualifies as a guilty pleasure, love it anyway especially Andrea's parts.
It's a personal guilty pleasure because it is so far removed from the music I normally listen to. I like a bit of Bocelli though and have a couple if his albums and the video of that particular concert in my collection
Always had a soft spot for this: Although, it might have something to do with the fact it was the closest thing to porn that my 12-year-old self had access to back in the day
My tastes in music are quite wide in any case. Wagner, Elgar, G&S Paul Robeson down to Sinatra, musicals Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson Steeleye Span. Almost anybody EXCEPT Richard Tauber singing Nessun Dorma But I feel just a tad guilty about the ladies, Dame Kiri, no problem but Julie Andrews, Doris Day, Shirley Bassey, Cleo Lane and Iris Williams all take a bit of explaining. .
Didn't think I had any but share one or two likes with Poly During lockdown I have watched a few of my fav. old films and watched this one last night, previously I had filed Gilbert and Sullivan in the same bin as Gilbert O Sullivan so I suppose it belongs here, Pasted from Wikipedia Topsy-Turvy is a 1999 British musical drama film written and directed by Mike Leigh, starring Allan Corduner as Sir Arthur Sullivan and Jim Broadbent as W. S. Gilbert, along with Timothy Spall and Lesley Manville. The story concerns the 15-month period in 1884 and 1885 leading up to the premiere of Gilbert and Sullivan's The Mikado. The film focuses on the creative conflict between playwright and composer, and their decision to continue their partnership, which led to their creation of several more Savoy operas. The film was not released widely, but it received very favourable reviews, including a number of film festival awards and two Academy Awards for design. While it is considered an artistic success as an in-depth illustration of British life in the theatre during the Victorian era, the film did not recover its production costs. Leigh cast actors who did their own singing in the film, and the singing performances were faulted by some critics, while others lauded Leigh's strategy.
If you feel "guilty" about anything you enjoy listening to or watching for that matter, you need to give your head a shake. If you're talking about stuff which is not your normal listening, then I have literally dozens of them. Take this one for instance;
I mostly like prog, or hard rock bands, but I do also like a bit of Roachford, which is I guess still quite rock'y, but with more R&B and Soul thrown in than I normally go for or, straying into electronic stuff, I like a bit of Depeche Mode and one that I should probably feel most guilty for, Richard Marx
not even a secret for me, it was all the rage in 1999 as I was entering that phase of mid teens, plus Sunderland had just smashed the 1st Division.
Heavy Rock for me and a smidgeon of american Southern Rock.Groups like Blackfoot,Molly Hatchett and Rossington Collins Band.Sorry no modern ****e for me
I don't think that this has anything to do with the song, what a pair of beauts!!! Pity they went to prison for this though!!
