We all have them, songs we’ve loved for years that no matter what we see our friends cringe at when we blast them in the car or at a party. They’re the songs we reserve for private listening and reminiscing. After years of writing about the music I love, I wanted to take a chance to share some of these songs — tracks that I haven’t really admitted to loving, songs that only my closest friends and exes know I adore and have ripped on me at one time or another. Friends, I love you, but it’s time that I let go and share this side of my music taste. Go ahead and laugh, there are plenty of other folks who will be judging you for judging so hard!
