What is the most embarassing album/cd in your collection?

Micheal Bolton. Bought a very loooong time ago. And then there's those CD's you buy because one song on it reminds you of a guy you like/used to like. In retrospect, those are more then a little embarassing.

If I like to listen to it and it's part of my collection then it's not embarassing!

I have the Garth Brooks box set. I figured it was only $25 for 6 cd's, there had to be something good in it.

Alias Irrelevante

I have not regrets or qualms about any of the items in my music collection, even the old Barry Manilow stuff.

Styx: Greatest Hits. I know I know... I'm supposed to be this big bad ex-goth indie girl. Well pshaw. I adore Come Sail Away and Mr. Roboto as much as ... well, no one. I'm sailing away…

Probably Michael Jackson's album Thriller. I just can't help myself.

I have to say "Bathhouse Betty" from Bette Midler. The worst thing is that I didn't get it as a gift or anything.

My collection is mostly classical, but I'm ashamed to admit that I have some early fifties stuff that was my mother's.

I own neither cd's nor albums--even photograph albums.

Well, I don't think that I have any embarrassing cd's, but I did stumble across one of my husband's the other day that made me raise an eyebrow. He had "Ace of Base" - remember them? I think they were an all-girl European one-hit-wonder band - they sang that song "All she wants is another baby" - or something like that. When I approached him about it he claimed that it wasn't his and he had no idea how he got it. I guess if I got caught with that, I would lie too.

It would be something by the Spice Girls. It was an unwanted birthday present and as it was from my mother I felt too sentimental to sell it. She wrongly assumed that every girl my aged idolised them at the time, and I haven't listened to it once.

I don't hang on to things that I don't like, so the answer is "none".

Enya, I have two of them. But, they help me sleep, so oh well.

Carmen Elektra's album.
Prince produced it, the music isn't bad, it was a dollar, but still I
recognize that there is no defending it. In a dead heat for 2nd is a pack of albums Prince made for women he slept with: Vanity, Apollonia, and Mayte. None of them are technically good, but only Carmen insists on rapping.
