Do you like cheesy music?

[Idaho]

Yes, quite, esp Wired For Sound - have you seen the vid?

It's ridiculous. However the song is fantastic. Really well arranged and produced, and just flipping great. I want to do an updated cover of it - but.. er.. I have no talent or time.. er.. and I'm not going to.

 

[Pieface]

No

PieEye has voted twice on one of the choices!

It was a tense moment!

I read the choices. Well I only read two of them to be completely honest. I voted. And pressed submit.

Then I read on and decided I wanted to vote further and being alarmed about the submitting I had just done, clicked furiously on the second option and the first, then it said I'd already voted in that poll. So I backed up and did it all again. And again.

I was as surprised as you were by the results - and I didn't even post on the thread

I like cheesy music.

Then again, I tend to define "cheesy music" as music that is formulaic to it's genre, stuff where the person making the music isn't trying to put across any sort of underlying message, just producing something that will be a "crowd pleaser" to fans of the genre.

 

[sojourner]

Because children love it.
Because you cant get it out of your head no matter how much you hate it.
Because it is on Now Thats What I Call Music.

See, none of those say cheesy to me

Okay, apart from I'm a Barbie Girl, from some unknown/remembered band in the 90s

Now that's what I call cheesy, volume 52

 

[muser]

Works of Genius:

Toto - Africa
Abba - Take a Chance on Me
Baccara - Yes Sir I can Boogie
Beautiful South - I'm Your No.1 Fan
Cliff Richard - Wired for Sound

GENIUS I tell you

This is what bothers me cliff richard can sing 'wired for sound', (which you rightly point out is a work of genius) and then at a later date sing 'misletoe and wine'. It's a cruel world.

You're just a cheese faker.
Mistletoe and Wine PWNS

If you like it, its not cheese. That being the point of "cheesy or balleric"

So you should ask: do you like "cheesy" music. I thought "I need a love machine" was surprisingly alright, but still shite.

I had heard that the people who wrote, arranged and produced it had heard that Cliff was in the studio and on the spur of the moment thought they would see if he wanted to sing it.

seriously? do you think anyone else could have sung it. The song seems made for his vocals. A bit like tom jones and 'kiss', sinead o' connor 'nothing compares to you'.

Funny that you should pick two songs that were made for Prince's vocals

 

[Julie]

cheese is subjective

Agreed.

See I wouldn't describe Barbie Girl as cheesy. It's ghastly, but ghastly in a fairly unique sort of way. I reckon something needs to be a bit more of a cliche to be really properly cheesy.

Personally I like a lot of old rave stuff that is definitely very cheesy.

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Just been prompted by this thread to put Altern-8 on.

 

[Strumpet]

Ohhhhhhh yes, I lurve a bit o' cheese me.

oooooooh!

pwned!!pwned!!pwned!!pwned!!pwned!!pwned!!pwned!!pwned!!

 

[Dubversion]

And in any case, how anyone can think Tom Jones did anything to Kiss other than bellow over it like a drunken rugby player with his trousers round his ankles is beyond me.

 

[Skim]

Just been prompted by this thread to put Altern-8 on.

But is that cheese? One person's Babybel is another person's premium Camembert...

My favourite cheese slices:

Cher: Believe
Europe: The Final Countdown
Various glostick-in-the-air trance (except that William Orbit remix of Barber's Adagio for Strings, every single copy of which should be smashed/burned/deleted from hard drives around the world immediately)

Come on, Altern-8 are cheesy as. Good cheese, but definitely cheese.

 

[Orang Utan]

Yes, Roquefort as opposed to cheese food slice

 

[Idaho]

Cher: Believe

That is gorgonzola pie with a crispy cheese crust, enrobed in a rich stilton sauce with a generous topping of freshly grated parmesan.

 

[Orang Utan]

I worked at Our Price when that came out and a number of customers returned it as faulty cos they said Cher's voice 'goes all funny' halfway through.
Er, that'll be the vocoder.

 

[sam/phallocrat]

we know that you smell of knob cheese.

sorry, who are you again?

Speaking of vocoders, listen to Bee Minooor by Pleated Lemon:

Bee Minooor

"It's gonna take the piss and make it right"

 

[Orang Utan]

Hehe - I know those fellas - they're mentalists!

 

[Yetman]

Can you get cheese fondues?

Cos if you can I'm gonna be sick right now. All over my new shoes.

 

[Orang Utan]

Can you get cheese fondues?

What do you mean, can you get cheese fondues?


Have you never had a cheese fondue?

 

[milesy]

sorry, who are you again?

your mum.
