It's your first date and she/he asks what type of music you like. What's the guilty pleasure you won't tell her/him about?

Why isn't it just common practice to just use "they" instead the entirely cumbersome "he/her"?

Like it's just so much easier to type out and say, and it's just better to use regardless.

Darude Sandstorm.

Not even joking

None!

There should be no guilty pleasures in music. Especially dating. It's much more attractive to have a wide range of tastes and be comfortable with what you like.

Nickelback.

Doesn't exist. I tell them what I like. If they can't handle the truth then it wouldn't work anyway.

I also don't have guilty pleasures. I enjoy things.

Obviously the ska.

So I put my hands up. They're playin' my song, the butterflies fly away. I'm noddin' my head like, yeah. Movin' my hips like, yeah. I got my hands up, they're playin' my song. They know I'm gonna be okay. Yeah, it's a party in the U.S.A. Yeah, it's a party in the U.S.A.

My workout playlist consists of anime openings and Power Metal. I don't watch anime nor play D&D, but I like the fast-paced and fantasy/superhero style.

ive seen barry manilow in concert 4 times

Drum n bass

Steely Dan. The worst part would be I won't stop talking about the drum solo in Aja.

I have a philosophy to always expose my craziest parts cuz if they dont like them it eventually wont work anyway so id play cupcakke x mario kart remixes for them

Aqua and Toy Box. Dog bless the early 2000’s

It's your first date and she/he asks what type of music you like. What's the guilty pleasure you won't tell her/him about?

I love music and hate but being myself (AuADHD weeeee) so, they're going to hear an honest answer. If they're not down with my love of folk punk and what I classify as "shitty punk rock" (you just the kind - overly-compressed, terribly mixed, played by people who barely know how to tune a guitar), well, that's fair enough. Same as if they aren't up for my, AuADHD - neurodivergence can be a bit to handle.

I have some Brittany Spears and Backstreet Boys on my gym mix.

I will gladly tell them how much I like Weird Al.

I went on a 160 mile bike ride and wound up listening to the same Tove Lo album on repeat the entire time, not because it was too much of a hassle to change up the music or anything

Taylor swift :p

ICP

I'd rather listen to Raditude than Pinkerton...

Carmeldansen in its original form is legitimately a good song and I actually love the whole album its from.

Mindless Self Indulgence

Hyperpop. I'm a Christian and only date other Christians and many of those songs have pretty lewd lyrics.

depends, but I usually don't reference more of the occasional things I listen to , less of the electronic/breakcore or experimental/obviously avant garde (less Secret chiefs 3, more crossfire duo )

EDIT : my wife doesn't mind the tech death/grindcore, she does mind the free jazz/avant garde classical

Cbat, obviously

I love singing Kalinika... I'd probably avoid mentioning it because Russia is an authoritarian state that likely wouldn't approve of me dating the person I'm talking to. Also, the Russian government sucks in like a billion other ways.

Spinal Meningitis by Ween.

On a lighter note, I loves me some Señor Coconut.

Kpop. But to be fair, I listen to a wide variety of genres, from prog rock to metal, r&b, EDM, and film scores.

Metro Station - Shake It

Marching band music. Can’t get enough of it.

2000 - 2010's indie rock/pop like the kooks, mando diao, vampire weekend, etc

I'm going to save the Powerwolf and Lord of the Lost until maybe the third date...

French deep house from 2016.

Sonic the Hedgehog soundtracks, specifically the songs with vocals. Haven't kept up with the series in a while but my playlist has songs from everything from Sonic CD to Sonic and the Black Knight. I'm sure some of it is actually good music and some I only like because it reminds me of Sonic.

I guess it'll take a few more dates before I show her What I'm Made of...

Metal. A lot of people kinda freak out when they hear you like metal of any kind. And not in a good way.

italo-disco. though i might reveal that in a later moment.

MC Frontalot.

I don't really have guilty pleasures, but I'd probably keep Pupil Slicer and HIDE for the third or fourth date...

I don't know how she woud react to the entire ratchet & clank OST so I probably wouldn't show her this.

...every once in awhile i listen to top fourty countdowns from the mid-eighties, not necessarily because i enjoy the music, but because i'm mesmerised by the time-warp effect of revisiting period radio programs...

...i disliked a lot of the music then but i appreciated the shared cultural experience of legitimately popular broadcast media, and retrospectively it's a window into a world which no longer exists...

Donk is a 2nd or 3rd date kind of genre.

My "Hey! It's Franklin!" CD.

Demi Lovato's first album, Don't Forget. It absolutely slaps but it's difficult for me to talk about it.

Probably the cursed remixes on YouTube, they don't need to know how much of a banger beatswapped uptown funk is.

Insane Clown Posse

Denpa music.

Over clocked remix

Hurra Torpedo

I like the vacations

New Age. Lot of Jonn Serrie.

King motherfucking Gordy

Some Baby Metal songs.

Nah, I'm gonna own it because if they don't like KiNG MALA then they probably won't like being with me

Snake River Conspiracy

Die Antwoord

There's a Ghoooooost in me
That wants to say I'm sorry
Doesn't mean I'm sorry...

My Chemical Romance — the first two albums at least, wasn't a fan of "Black Parade"

Why would drag go on a date with someone who uses he or she pronouns? Drag prefers enbies who present as neither male nor female.
