Tuesday Night is Curry Night - part 3

Tonight's blog is brought to you by the power of mushroom and courgette korma and a quorn tikka masala, made by Velouria's little paws. Indeed, Vee could teach you to make a graph showing the fat, protein and carbohydrate value of the dinner but that would be just frightening.

Tonight's topic: Top Guilty Pleasure Choons

Velouria's:
  1. Go Your Own Way - Fleetwood Mac
  2. Umbrella - Rihanna (it's raining tonight. Blame Velouria for this)
  3. Here you come again - Dolly Parton
  4. Galveston - Glenn Campbell
  5. Since U been gone - Kelly Clarkson
  6. Toxic - Britney Spears
  7. Close to You - The Carpenters
  8. Rush Hour - Jane Wiedlin
  9. Only You - Flying Pickets
  10. Twenty Four Hours from Tulsa - Gene Pitney.

Velouria is in a contentious mood and told me that I'm not allowed to simply list out ten Duran Duran songs. I pointed out that Duran are NOT guilty pleasures, in fact they are a New Religion (see what I did there?) and hence a perfectly acceptable pleasure. Her riposte? Maybe not for you, only for the other 6 billion people on the planet. Next week her curry will be accompanied by the gentle sounds of Natasha Bedingfield in revenge.

Rio's:

  1. Final Countdown - Europe
  2. Living on a Prayer - Bon Jovi
  3. Maneater - Hall and Oates
  4. Never Gonna Give you Up - Rick Astley (I'm not Rickrolling, I've always loved him)
  5. The Frog Chorus - Paul McCartney
  6. Too Shy - Kajagoogoo
  7. Gold - Spandau Ballet (as a Duranie I am not supposed to like der Ballet)
  8. Time of my Life - Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes
  9. Islands in the Stream - Dolly'n'Kenny
  10. Fame - The Kids from Fame

Your turn: which songs get you up on the dancefloor, howling like an over-excitable banshee? You can post anonymously but Velouria and I will just check where you posted from and work out who you are.
