No and don't you dare paste a link to "Feelings, nothing more than feelings" or I'll puke!

I don't see why Carpenters would have to be a guilty pleasure. Actually I don't buy this concept of guilty pleasure and it is borne out of elitism/snobbery. If you like it, you like it. Karen Carpenter's incredible phrasing was beyond the grasp of most prog vocalists and both she and Richard were well versed in the American songbook. Annie Haslam said she liked Carpenters and was delighted when in some interview back in the day the Carpenters named Renaissance as one of their favourites. The groups never met, though.

I agree with you 100%.   Back in the day when we fell into peer pressure in grade school, admitting that one liked the Carpenters would be an offense of a punch to the face.   So I would play a Carpenters song and follow it up with Zeppelin or Rush before I went back to it  ;-)

Just thought I dig to some deeper crap than what already been posted
"Everyone is born with genius, but most people only keep it a few minutes"

The only thing I can really think of that I love that might raise a few eyebrows on here is this song:

TOTALLY agree! Weird Al has been the savior of many a cheesefest!
