Everybody has at least one track on their iPod they would rather not own up to. What's your character's?

(Character does not have to actually have an iPod to play.)


...and for that matter, what's yours?

(Too High For The Grocery Store, probably, for me...)

I cannot imagine that I would ever had a song on my iPod that I am embarrassed to own. (Not that I have or want an iPod.) That said, I suppose that I should be embarrassed that I still think the theme from The Greatest American Hero was cool.

[muji]

ABBA.

Or NSYNC.

Anything that can only be spelled in capitals, apparently.

(Acid reflux. Have been ordered to bed, but it hurts to lie down. Quandary.)

[campkilkare]

Is that for Mal, or for you?

(Which of the NSYNC boys is his favorite??)

[muji]

It's for me.

(Mal: "The cute one?")

Inara: ....

[mnt_raph]

Lie on your left side.
*props up on pillows*

[mogget_cat]

Stray Cat Strut.

Yrael goes >____>

[latino_menace]

That's a classic! *is unashamed of having it also*

[saphyria.livejournal.com]

Woo!

(though seriously, when I saw the notif in my inbox, I thought you meant Ramon had it in his playlist and my brain went pop)

[latino_menace]

BWHAHA! That makes my head hurt. *ded*

[saphyria.livejournal.com]

*giggles with* augh, my head.

I have an O*Town song on my iPod that has never been played :|

[gorgonfondness]

You know, the only reason I ever bought an O*Town cd is because of Mia's game. The main character (pictured in the center of the icon with the pissed off look and the sword) was voiced by Ashley Angel.

Gordon has a thing for country music that he refused to admit to anyone until relatively recently. So it wasn't so much a track as several playlists.

[kurosakiboy.livejournal.com]

It is little things like this that make me incredibly happy that you play Gordon.

...I know that was random I'm just gonna lurk over here.

[acts_of_gord]

Hee. Nah, it's cool, I'm glad you approve. Well, I'm glad people in general approve, regardless; Gordon's always been one of those PCs that I've been nervous about.

Wes is entirely unashamed of any and all music choices. His datapad is full of whatever would annoy the most people during a briefing. Someone probably pointed out, "But you still spent time looking for every single one of those songs," and he replied, "What do you do when Tycho is talking? Listen?"

... James has some Madonna on his iPod. It's his gay BFF's fault. :\

[spooky-lemur.livejournal.com]

Given how my music taste runs from Blue Grass to Goth/Industrial, I really have no shame when it comes to my music. In fact I even take a certain pride when others look at my music and roll their eyes.

As to pups, I think Ben is the only one I have who would have any secret shame music and it would be ABBA. The song and playlist is password protected so no one else but him can even see it.

And the youtube video of that guy who looks like Ben dancing along to Dancing Queen? Totally faked despite what Johnny will tell you.

[gorgonfondness]

Mia doesn't know that you're supposed to be embarrassed for liking music and thus isn't.

I own a lot of wizard rock, songs by the Eagles, the Beach Boys, and Michael Jackson, which I wouldn't have owned up to a couple of years ago. I remember a conversation I had with my dad bout this subject:

Me: Okay, I've been denying it and covering it up for long enough and it's time to come clean. I love the Eagles. I thought I hated them, but I was wrong. I just like too many of their songs.

Dad: You like the Eagles? Really? You like that California rock?

Me: *nods*

Dad: Well, at least it's not the Beach Boys.

Me: ...........too late.

[kd7sov]

Hmmm...

I have a few songs that I don't mention when asked what I have - mainly stuff from/based on video games or Charlie the Unicorn - but nothing I'm particularly ashamed of.

Felix is of the opinion that if you don't want something known you shouldn't provide opportunity for it to become known. Thus, if he had a music player (which I would kind of like to give him at some point), it would only have stuff he'd be willing for people to know he had. He wouldn't advertise it, but he wouldn't hide it, either.

Kain-who-is-not-apped would have a full playlist of these. I have no idea what specific songs, but they'd be the ones that remind him of Rosa.

[vivien]

Tom would be partial to, and embarrassed to death if anyone knew, "Closer" by Nine Inch Nails was on his theoretical iPod (which he would never use).

I am embarrassed by nothing on mine!!!

[cupenny.livejournal.com]

Mmmmmmm, goth strippers. ^_^

[mnt_raph]

I think Raph would be ashamed, or rather MORE THAN A BIT HESITANT, to admit that he's got Evanescence somewhere hidden in his music collection.

Mike? As a rule has no shame. None what so ever.

Me? I make apologies for having P!nk and some Britney Speares in my music library.

[ceitfianna]

I have very odd taste in music so there's not really anything I'm ashamed of, but I do get weird cravings. At one point the Little Mermaid soundtrack was stuck in my head and the only way I could get it out was to listen to it.

Let's see for my pups, I don't think any of them have that much of a music collection. Will, Tumnus and Jane wouldn't understand the technology and I think Demeter just isn't that interested.

The Pirate King really brings his own music along though I could see him becoming strangely fascinated with Sondheim one day.

For my just apped but not approved pup, the closest music thing he'd have would be in Ancelstierre and I think he actually really enjoyed the dances that happened there. In my mind Ancelstierre is very like England around WWI so kind of ragtime and such.

[misslucyjane]

I have three different versions of "MmmBop!" Single, acoustic, mashup.

Absolutely. No. Regrets.

[bcgphoenix]

*looks left*

*looks right*

Ever since seeing that one Star Trek vid, "Circus" by Britney Spears has been on semi-constant rotation on my iPhone. I CAN'T HELP IT. IT KEEPS ME AWAKE WHEN I DANCE TO IT.

(I think it's on Sylar's iPod, too. *solemn*)

[cupenny.livejournal.com]

I have a 'Down and Dirty' playlist on my iPod that would shock my coworkers. Not so much the songs, but that I have them. >_> And know them well enough to sing to them.

But... I don't think there's anything on there I'm embarrased to have, so! (This includes songs from Muppets Treasure Island on my Pirates! playlist. *ggls*)

[gone_byebye]

Oh, I almost forgot.

Ray was trapped on Cthulhu Mythos Earth for around twenty-five years, and spent most of that time working as the assistant to the Miskatonic University chief librarian. Mostly his job was taking care of the Library's restricted section, which is where they stored the books that could drive people insane. He did a lot of restoration and preservation work and such, but he also had to do daily maintenance like dusting. When you're around creepy old books like that you do a lot of things to keep yourself from getting wigged out.

A band of Miskatonic students once caught him dusting the Restricted Section while singing "A Professional Pirate", from Muppet Treasure Island, and more or less roped him into helping them put on an actual musical production of Treasure Island for the drama department. He still hasn't lived that down.

[nocarename]

I do not have a J-pop problem.

People who live with me may have a J-pop problem, but that's a different category.

Pups? Hmmm.

Ako seems to be guilt free on the music front.
Tyler just wants the remixes to go easier on the ultrasonics (Friggin' werewolf DJs). There is no shame of having a tape of your girlfriend playing the Rite of Spring.
Jerry has no shame and an extensive collection of Weird Al CDs. He sings along.
and Yuuno has a fondness for some of the MId-childan pop stars. This might be shameful if most of his friends weren't girls and able to kick everyone else's asses.

[genarti]

River says, what is this shame thing you speak of? There are some songs with private meaning that she'd rather not talk about -- ones associated with Roland's music selection, songs she remembers dancing to when she was younger -- but not the guilty pleasure sort.

Trowa says the same thing, but by staring at you impassively. That said, his sister listens to lots of sparkly bouncy pop stuff, and I suspect some of it Trowa secretly likes. The stuff actually on his computer probably slants pretty classical.

Lan, I have no idea. He's a traditionalist anyway.

Edel has a music box. It plays cryptic hints that she's a puppet, which is to say music from Coppelia. I can't really picture her with enough comprehension of leisure time to have an iPod or similar, nor enough agency to have music preferences. (And Uzura is a toddler and has no shame.)

Regan secretly loves the FFverse equivalent of cheesy disco, and a handful of ridiculous musicals. She can sing along with lots, although she doesn't if she thinks anybody is listening.

[cameoflage.livejournal.com]

I tend to be shameless -- and will in fact brag -- about my weird music (I have such things as the BSnP song, spooky sound effects strung together, "Little Twelvetoes" from Schoolhouse Rock, music from the original Sims, and the Monster Mash), and I listen to everything from the Beatles to Nine Inch Nails... but I'd get a bit defensive if somebody drew attention to the fact that I have songs by Linkin Park and blink-182 on my iPod.
