Today I went and downloaded 'Flying without Wings' by Westlife.
Do I need help?

Depends on why you downloaded it... sounds like it was for sentiments sake, or a 'I really fancy listening to Song X for no apparent reason' sort of moment... which is all fine (if not totally good)!
The worry starts when the line between liking the song because of sentimental reasons and actually just liking the song begins to blur. Thats when we start exorcising the demons right out of you.
That really ought to be a service IMSoc offers, exorcisms of bad music demons.

OK, I think I need help. Like any child of the early 80s, I thought `Heaven is a Place on Earth' was fantastic. The problem is, when I get really depressed, I put on some Belinda Carlisle to cheer me up. Not the Go-Gos, which is Girl Power Done Right, but Belinda's solo stuff. (We all agree that solo artists are never as good as the original band, right?) And this leads me to think that my obsession with the 80s' finest disco/pop-rock isn't completely healthy. Dear Agony Aunt, what should I do?

on a tangent, is tears for fears to be considered a guilty pleasure?

There really is some difference though, between Heaven is a Place On Earth (ahem, fabulous) and Westlife (awful). Right? This is objective stuff...
And TJ - no. But liking that rubbish cover of Mad World definitely is.

I'm utterly proud of my "the laziest men on mars" downloads i've got (all your base now belong to us)
I'm far less proud of the fact I tracked down the theme tunes to several animes the other day. I feel myself getting geekier by the day...somebody help me....
