Bought by yourself or as a gift, what are the embarrassments that have passed through your collection? Me?? Kid Rock - The History Of Rock  I bought it myself. I was 14 and confused.  ------------- https://armchairmaestro.com/" rel="nofollow - My Music Blog |

When my girlfriend moved in a couple of years ago she brought a number of CD's with her and to my horror added them to my existing CD collection. One day when she was out I removed them all and they now have their own place out of sight  ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/colt2112" rel="nofollow - http://www.last.fm/user/colt2112

Back when I first discovered music I bought some pretty embarrassing stuff. Didn't even know what metal was at that point. I'm talking: http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/busted/busted/" rel="nofollow - http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/busted/busted/
http://rateyourmusic.com/release/comp/scooter/push_the_beat_for_this_jam__the_singles_94___02_/" rel="nofollow - http://rateyourmusic.com/release/comp/scooter/push_the_beat_for_this_jam__the_singles_94___02_/
I bought the above. I also went on to buy about everything Scooter did up until: http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/scooter/the_stadium_techno_experience/" rel="nofollow - http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/scooter/the_stadium_techno_experience/
Some time after that the metal started to take hold. As for presents, one of my Grandmothers bought be this one Xmas: http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/gareth_gates/what_my_heart_wants_to_say/" rel="nofollow - http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/gareth_gates/what_my_heart_wants_to_say/
 Needless to say none of these are in my house any longer. Although I only parted with the Scooter collection in 2010. Was a bit difficult letting go of those given how much as a young teen I dragged my parents around shops in Germany looking for them. Eventually relented to finance some metal albums I wanted. ------------- Earn Money Online (NOT a scam): https://premium.gg2u.org?referrer=adg211288" rel="nofollow - GG2U https://adamsfilmcorner.quora.com/" rel="nofollow - Adam's Film Corner on Quora |

| My mom's vinyl collection fell into my hands. There was some pretty despairing stuff in there. Especially Christmas Tyme by Engelbert Humperdinck. I dare you to say that name without at least smiling. |

I have Ace of Base's Happy Nation, but I'm not really embarrassed about it. Hmmm... I don't really have anything in my collection that I find embarrassing... oh yeah, maybe Metallica's Load. -------------

When I was around 10 years old, I really enjoyed some of my grandmother's Bobby Vinton 45 singles (she gave me most of her record collection when I was around that age), and I actually bought a few of his LP's at a thrift store not too long after that. I still have most of them (Melodies of Love is one of them I think?)... I tried selling them to a store once, but they didn't buy. I guess I'll just hold onto those Bobby Vinton LP's for nostalgia's sake... I have some other questionable stuff in my collection from when I first starting getting into music too. Al Martino, The Carpenters, Dion, Bee Gees (the disco era stuff), etc. - some of it I still enjoy from time to time (Frank Sinatra in particular  ), but my music taste has since shifted away from simple pop music.------------- Check out my YouTube channel! http://www.youtube.com/user/demiseoftime" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/user/demiseoftime |

...I almost forgot to mention that I purchased at least 2 Englebert Humperdinck LP's when I was around 10 years old too. Still haven't gotten rid of those either.

Thankfully, very little. I didn't really do CDs until I was 16/17, that's probably the most embarrassing thing! Before that (and after) I pretty much make my albums count! I guess Linkin Park. I had Meteora and Hybrid Theory and used to rock that s**t I don't feel ashamed though, I was 14, what can ya do? God Hates Us All by Slayer is pretty sad, it's buried deep in my room and just knowing I own it hurts me ------------- Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer and Testament. The real Big Four of thrash metal! Listen to doom metal, worship Satan |

The first album I ever bought was Rush - 2112, so I haven't had too many stinkers. My most embarrassing album is probably Metallica - St Anger. Man, that is a crappy album.....

| Honestly I can't remember...I have a bad memory...I sold all my metal CD's a while ago when I needed money and didn't listen to that much metal anyways anymore. Though that being said I listen to it very much more again from time to time and slightly regret selling all those... |

What's embarrassing about Turbo?  I can't think of anything embarrassing in my music collection, I've never been ashamed with the music I listen to. |

I like it too but the lyrics embarrass the hell out of me. Can you say cheesy
The cheesy lyrics. They embarrass me and the music doesn't sound like the Priest that I love. So that's how it embarrasses me ------------- "Before you see the light you must die!!!!!!!!!!" - Slayer "Today is born the seventh one, born of woman, the seventh son" - Steve Harris |

I m not embarrassed but i have a taste for pure cheese now and again. Think of the worst of the worst and i probably have a greatest hits at least. We re talking Abba, Barry Manilow, Olivia Neutron Bomb, Bee Gees etc. Yep i m a twisted puppy but i have no shame so i just don t give a flying f:*k -------------

Does finding a CD of Hootie and the Blowfish's Cracked Rear View count as being embarrassing? I sure think it does. |

| Discovery (very Disco) by ELO is the only album I have that makes me cringe. I'd put it in the next charity bag that comes through my door, but I'd have to find the album first. |
