I admit it:
I can’t help but crank the volume up when I hear Belinda Carlisle singing “Heaven is a Place on Earth”
That MC Hawking thing about Entropy.

(Scroll down to ‘Entropy’)
It’s a rap song made to sound like cosmologist Stephen Hawking’s talking computer aid.
Marky Mark and Funky Bunch - Good Vibrations
Cranked up with the windows rolled up.
Duran Duran’s “Girls on Film”…on film.
Pretty much every pop song recorded between 1967 and 1983.
Here’s a list of some of my uncool favorites:
Sky High by Jigsaw
Convoy by CW McCall
Motorcycle Mama by Sailcat
The Pina Colada Song by Rupert Holmes
Dime a Dance by Vicki Lawrence
We Are Family by Sister Sledge
Down By The Lazy River by the Osmond Brothers
Havin’ My Baby by Pa… um…
Having just realized that I could very easily suck all the cool out of the SDMB singlehandledly, I think I’ll just shut the hell up now.
“Heaven is a Place on Earth” is a geeky song? Since when? Maybe if you’re a hard core punk or heavey metal fan and you don’t like pop rock then I supose you could concider it geeky. In that case, I must be a major geek because I love alot of her songs (and Go-Go songs as well).
And I guess by this standard, then Roxette’s - The Look and Listen to You Heart must be geeky too. Oh well.
“That’s Mathematics” by Tom Lehrer
And, I guess I’m a geek too because I can’t use the Bold html code properly either 
Since Beavis and Butthead made Winger an uncool band, then my favorite song from them Headed for a Heartbreak would be concidered geeky and uncool I guess.
Does Just Can’t Get Enough by Depeche Mode count?
Sex by Berlin
The More You Ignore Me (The Closer I Get) by everyone’s favorite celibate, Morrisey.
And I love Ace of Base. I saw the sign…and it opened up my eyes, I saw the sign.
Um…
Well…
See, I have a certain weakness for…
[sub]The Safety Dance[/sub]
“Thunder Island” by Jay Ferguson
“Lonely Boy” by Andrew Gold
“Devil Woman” by Cliff Richard
“Year of the Cat” and “Time Passages” by Al Stewart
So basically middle of the road “lite FM” pop from the late 70s.
Depeche Mode? Morrissey? and really bad in the same sentence. Blasphemous. Geeky? I could see that, same with uncool(if you love Britney and Xtina, I guess). But for me, I guess you could throw anything by Weezer into the geeky section. And a really bad song that I absolutely cannot turn off is Punk Rock 101 by Bowling for Soup. Pop-punk at its most derivative.
Power, sister! Men Without Hats got me into checking out music that wasn’t played on the radio much, which leads to all kinds of good stuff. I wouldn’t be half the geek I am today if I hadn’t heard Safety Dance when I did. Without it I’d never have heard of Nick Cave, PJ Harvey, Patti Smith, James Brown, Joy Division, George Clinton, Bauhaus, DOA or the Velvet Underground.
Plus it’s got a good beat and you can dance to it, so I’d give it an 85.
Peaches by that presidents band.
Define geeky. What is uncool? 
:eek:
I’ll second most of the songs listed so far.
Wall of Voodoo “Mexican Radio”
Anything by CW McCall
“Tangerine Speedo”
Caramba “Hubba Hubba Zoot Zoot” I giggle every time I listen to this song, I can’t help it.
The theme to the Disney Electric Light Parade
I challenge all of you to find dopier songs than these. 
Anything by Cole Porter, George Gershwin, Harry Warren, Irving Berlin, Jerome Kern, Adler and Ross, Rodgers and Hammerstein, Kander and Ebb, etc.
Of course, their songs are still very cool, but lots of people don’t realize that.
:eek:
Since when is that masterpiece uncool???
I can’t define geeky, but I know it when I hear it. Especially when I lip sync to Jesse’s Girl.
