again, not embarassed, but i think what you mean is:

1. mmbop (Hanson)
2. all of Aqua's first album
3. cheesy dance from the 90s

i listen to a lot of cheesy and romantic music. it balances out when i listen to bolt thrower.
This. I still break out Aqua - Aquarium and the Mortal Kombat soundtrack frequently. Hated everything else Hanson made but liked that. Now I know why: it was produced by The Dust Brothers.

How about a whole genre?

Every once in a while, I get in the mood to listen to funk.
George Clinton: Atomic Dog (among others)

Or, old school rap. I feel rather silly sometimes, rolling past the high school kids on my way to school, with the volume up fairly high in my truck, listening to Grand Master Flash.

some taylor swift song I used to hear on the radio all the time. Don't even know the title, I just roll up the windows when it comes on.

I'm having some trouble reconciling that with your sig line, but considering my contribution to this thread, I'm certainly not judging.():)
Cookie of your choice for recognising that.
I've got pretty wide taste in music. I like my disco as camp as possible though!

The Carpenters and Richard Marx (pretty much all songs). Had friends laugh at me when they got in my car for it. Oh, and a lot of Boy Band songs - especially this one:

Heard it in the supermarket the other day and was singing along in the aisles like a teenage girl.

Nothing wrong with liking a good Paul Williams song like "We've Only Just Begun", though my favorite of his is the Phantom of the Paradise soundtrack - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vuikvl7zt3E
