If you enjoy a song, it's good.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

If you enjoy a song, it's good.

 

Exactly. I know hardened rockers who listen to stuff that would go against the grain. 

[Josef Svejk]

If you enjoy a song, it's good.

 

No, you simply enjoy it.

What if someone enjoys bourbons?

[Josef Svejk]

What if someone enjoys bourbons?

 

What would constitute a musical bourbon, I wonder?

[Mook]

What would constitute a musical bourbon, I wonder?

 

Half man half biscuit?

[Guest Pistonbroke]

There is a band called The Bourbons.

Middle of The Road.

[redheart]

I cannot be arsed reading through the drivel in this thread.

 

So can someone summarise...is he still dead?

[cloggypop]

Half man half biscuit?

Fuck off Mook. They are boss.

[Mook]

Fuck off Mook. They are boss.

 

I like bourbons.

 

It was the first music/biscuit reference that came into my head to be honest.

[Tony Moanero]

No, you simply enjoy it.

If you like a song, it's a good song in your opinion.

[Josef Svejk]

No, it's good in your opinion.

 

That's not what you said. And it doesn't necessarily follow, anyway. There may be songs you enjoy even though you think they're not especially good. Guilty pleasures, say.

 

Much like bourbon biscuits, now I think about it...

[Josef Svejk]

There is a band called The Bourbons. 

 

 

I was going to rep you for finding that. But then I listened to it.

[Tony Moanero]

I've never understood this guilty pleasures business.

 

If you enjoy a song, why care that it isn't held in high regard by other people? What is there to feel guilty about?

[Josef Svejk]

I never understood this guilty pleasures business. If you enjoy a song, why would you give a fuck that it isn't held in high regard by other people?

 

It's not necessarily about what others think. And, as you get older, that doesn't really figure much at all, in my experience. I've recently started to enjoy some music that I think is pretty worthless, for example. Very much guilty pleasure territory, whatever others think about it.

 

Incidentally, I think Wham are regarded as a guilty pleasure by some, which is fair enough. People enjoy what they enjoy. But that doesn't make it good.

It does for them though mate, which is kind of the point. 

[Ezekiel 25:17]

Jesus Christ there's some absolute shite being spouted on this thread, and there's some absolute fucking mongs on this forum, that is all.

[Ezekiel 25:17]

If you don't think Careless Whisper is a good song you have no fucking clue what music is.

Why do you consider it worthless?

 

I obviously don't understand the concept of guilty pleasures. If I listened to a song, regardless of what it was, and enjoyed it, I'd never consider it to be worthless, as I, well, enjoyed it.

[Josef Svejk]

It does for them though mate, which is kind of the point. 

 

As I've just been arguing, it's perfectly possible to enjoy something without thinking that it's good. To take the same line of argument further, it's also possible to enjoy something while mistakenly thinking that this makes it good.

[Josef Svejk]

If you don't think Careless Whisper is a good song you have no fucking clue what music is.

 

Irony alert!

[Tony Moanero]

Fingers crossed that I'm one of the mongs. It would be the nicest thing that anyone has said about me this month.

[Tony Moanero]

Precisely.
