Your Weirdest Guilty Pleasures

Cruising through youtube the other day, I was reminded of this music video for a song I was absolutely OBSESSED with my senior year at Cornell.

See, I've always kind of had a soft spot for bad European dance songs...the cheesier the better--I WAS born in the 80's. And so when my friend from Russia introduced me to this gem, it was all over.



Of course nothing can compare to the obsession I had with THIS song!



The first time I heard the infamous Numa Numa song, I was at a friend's house party. It started playing and I grabbed my friend's arm and ran into the middle of the dance floor/living room yelling, "I LOVE this song!" I think I had a sixth sense that I would love this song. Anyway, she was hooked too, and we invented the goofiest dance to go with it--performed regularly now at weddings and New Years Eve parties--not to mention we hosted a party at our apartment two weeks later for the sole purpose of sneaking this song into the playlist a total of 8 times. 8 times... Because that's how we roll.

I also may or may not have sung the song to a bunch of Romanian guys I met one night in the city...

Oh look it comes in English!

So now that you know some of my weird obsessions/guilty pleasures, what are yours?

Crap, I couldn't resist.

Here's Elmo's Numa Numa.

  1. My friend and I thought the Numa Numa song was hilarious when we first heard it, and we loved it even more after we saw the video.

    I'm into too many weird things to name!
