10 songs I'm kinda embarrassed that I like for whatever reason




In no particular order:


1. Training Montage Song from Rocky IV:

2. Bobby McFerrrin - "Voicing" Air by Bach, a little tacky:

3. Tom Green freestyles with X-Zibit:

4. Telstra Ad - We are one, we are many.
I'm a closet Aussie, and this song makes me teary some times (really!):

5. Honda ad featuring Andy Williams "The Impossible Dream:"

6. Amy Winehouse - Valerie (live).
Done to death in all kind of versions (most notably by the Zutons), but Amy does this one 
justice:

7. Nessum Dorma - Paul Potts (BGT final) He's not Pavarotti, and this version isn't really that impressive, but considering his story, it's heartwarming:

8. Guy Sebastian - Climb Every Mountain. 
Originally from "Sound of music," the first Australian Idol Winner kitsched it up, but it's a really impressive and heartfelt performance regardless:

9. John Mayer - Free Fallin' (cover).
A gaudy 80's classic softrocked up (or down, depending on how you see it)

10. Pennywise - Fuck Authority
It was the nineties and skatepunk was hot. Nonetheless, this song was one of the songs that was the soundtrack of my life when i was 15:
