Day 13. A song/artist you don't want anyone to know you enjoy

Well, there are a few artists that I could actually put here but... one's too popular to really put here because EH, the other was sort of one-hit wonder in the states, and I'm going to go with that one. Since people give me shit for listening to it once and awhile. Looking them up online actually made me buh, since there's more albums out there than I would have thought. I only had the one when they were playing them a lot over here...back in the late nineties.

And that's Chumbawamba.

Otherwise known to US kids as "that band that made the I GET KNOCKED DOWN! /shoves people over" song.

It's kind of hard to describe their sound, because honestly, it's kind of eclectic - which I do really like about the band. The Tubthumper album is the only one that I have but I've always enjoyed it when I feel like hitting up the nineties kick of my CD collection.

You have the generally bouncy sort of Tubthumping song, then get a moody one like Outsider...

That slips into damn near rock-punk like Mary, Mary which apparently made it into the Stigmata movie and I had never realized.

To an almost jazz-trance song like I Want More

They're just one of those bands that has really can't be defined and I think that's why I like them a lot.

But damned if people gave me shit about it all the time. |Db
