I also have to emphasize, that for me personally, cheesy is not necessarily a bad thing at all. It all comes down to the quality of the song.

………A Good Cheesy

perhaps we should change the word cheesy for cringy

cos that's what some ballads are

 

Which 9/10 is actually opinion

lol. they all hate my music. just give me withering looks 

Aw, that's too bad. I can't fathom liking the music Geoff listed for his kids. I don't think I ever will. And how come the music changed so drastically over the past decade? And why is it almost a given that they like it and hate the old? I just don't understand.

I dunno. I think part of it has to do with sincerity, or at least convincing me of sincerity. When I hear "I Still Think About You" and "Love of a Lifetime" I believe the authors mean the words they are singing. And so then I believe them when I sing them myself. But it can also be the music. Stryper suffers on both ends, unfortunately. 

Yeah sincerity definitely matters. 

Gosh Geoff I'm sorry for you. The only good songs you get to listen to are Footloose, and… footloose. 

My kids aren't listening to Trash when they're around me. I'm thinking that when I get kids I'm gonna have good music on all the time and they'll grow to like it. I seriously go crazy if I can't have music on or there's a terrible radio on. Why don't you just turn the classic rock radio on Glen? When my little brother asks, my mom sighs and says okay, since she likes it quiet, but then it goes on that radio- never has it been pop. That's what my cousins listen to in theirs (pop) and it drives me nuts, but of course I don't say anything.

"First Love" ring a bell? That is Chessy City!

Ahhh chessy city is my favorite. First Love isn't exactly what I would call cheesy, just boring. I still like it but it's sure boring. I'm cleshae but I love "Honestly", cheesy or not. Idk if "Lonely" is a ballad, but it's a heck of a great song!

Of course, "cheese" can be found in songs other than ballads

Yes The Final Countdown as a good example 

I guess what does Cheesy even mean to you exactly - to me it's very, probably synthesized, maybe the singer is very 'R'ry with his R's, and the words are extremely cheesy. Lots of keyboards stuff like that. When I See You Smile is pretty cheesy, but a really good song.

Warrant's "Heaven"?

Heaven is a good song!

Me either. Most of it is pretty samey. And Michael's vocals get a little overdone and annoying at times now.

Yeah, the deep that comes with age doesn't go well with his high voice 😂

I love "Carrie". It's cheesy but catchy memorable cheesy. 

I guess everybody has a different definition of Catchy, but yeah- that's what I call a good cheesy

I prefer the older Stryper to the newer stuff. 

I really think they did a good job of reinventing themselves when they came back. Thunderously heavy while still maintaining those melodies. 

I don't like it as much though.

We're gonna have to disagree on this.

Alright then. People say Stryper gets better with age- I Strongly disagree. Sorry is alright, but no way are they better with age. Anyway, yeah, we're gonna have to disagree

Nope. "Carrie" is great. 

You want cheese? Stryper's ballads pre-Against the Law are pure American cheese. 

Carrie is great, still cheesy though. Same for Stryper  What I call a good cheesy. 

24 minutes ago, Glen said:

but not the definition of a cheesy ballad

 

Well no, but definitely a ballad. A cheesy one is Carrie by Europe. I know that's not Def Leppard obviously but that's the cheesiest one ever. 

Love Bites is the definition of a ballad

I know what you mean. I can't find a copy of the lyrics for their latest album online either.

Is that a joke? Or are you being serious, because it's an instrumental. Either way 

It's alright I figured them out myself and used em for what I needed so it's alright. Thanks anyway. 

Does anyone have a physical copy of Angelica's first album? I need a picture of the lyrics for the song Are You Satisfied. I can't find them anywhere online. Much appreciated!

Eh? They did one or two collaborations with country artists, but not one single one of their albums is even remotely country.

Even their worst albums are still rock albums.

Idk, like Bon Jovi they changed their sound, kind of. Maybe not as much as Jovi, but still kinda went a little bit country rock. But not southern rock either, just country cheesiness put into a rock song. You know- kinda hard to describe but that's the best I can do. 

Ohhhh I forgot about Love and Affection and I don't know why. That might be in there in place of Rock of Ages. 

My sister prefers OTTN & HND too. Both of us like OTTN- Adrenalize though. Neither of us like how they changed to Country.
