Three favorite artists I consider guilty pleasures: U2, Coldplay, and Dave Matthews Band. Why guilty? It’s hard to pin down, but I think because they’re so hugely popular/overplayed and/or infamous for being dunked on, and I fear being judged for associating with them. So I shrink away from sharing that I like them.

Ahhh... there is definitely a 'stigma' with 'popular' bands right. But they did get popular for a reason. I love U2 in particular.

It’s funny when we meet someone we size up their personality by the way they dress, look, or hold themselves, but once we actually talk with them we see the real person inside. This was beautiful.

So true! I remember years ago when I lived in the New York area and on the subway, seeing so many people with earbuds, I always wondered what they were listening to. I always wanted to do a research study where I guess what they were listening to and see how often I may have been right. Probably not much. The great thing about music is, we like what we like!
