View Full Version : What music is 'cheese'?
slimsid2000 20-09-2006, 15:07 Now here is a question, I have seen on here and heard elsewhere some music described as either cheese or cheesey. What exactly would qualify a particular song/artist to be described as such. I have never been really sure. It seems yet another of those things that everyone else in the world seems to know but I don't.
kenny g and michael bolton are great example's of musical cheese. my all time favourite example of musical edam has to be 'don't it make you feel good' by stefan dennis who plays paul robinson in neighbours.
KJ_VENOM 20-09-2006, 15:18 village people, black lace, cheeky girls things like this are classed as cheese
slimsid2000 20-09-2006, 15:23 So basically pop rather than heavy metal or rock type of thing?
BasilRathbon 20-09-2006, 15:26 Any form of music which has a melody and some kind of recognisable song structure is dismissed as 'cheese' by some of the puritans on here......
Shame really - some of my favourite things are cheesy.......
KJ_VENOM 20-09-2006, 15:27 true basil, it does seem to depend on ppls musical tastes
peacenlove 20-09-2006, 16:27 at student "cheese nights", cheeky girls, s club 7, take that etc etc are played a lot as well as old 'classics' like time of my life (think its dirty dancing?), one and only (by that guy with the blonde mullet) etc. not all pop music is classed as cheese though, i've never heard charlotte church or kelly clarkson referred to as cheese, or some of pinks less rocky, more pop stuff.
upinwath 20-09-2006, 16:35 Pretty much all the tunes I play at a wedding disco.
All that old cheese and the punters love it.
It's just a case of "Making your mind UP" :hihi:

Not at all. Think Def Leppard and Bon Jovi.
No! No! No! Non of these artists compare to the might of THE HOFF!! Now he is the God of Cheese. Check out David Hasslehoff - "Jump in my car", or his other classic "Hooked on a feeling" on YouTube.
Beakerzoid 21-09-2006, 11:13 Richard Cheese is, literally, Cheese. If you haven't experienced the pleasure of his lounge-style remakes of songs, check out his website and sample some http://www.richardcheese.com/rclounge.html

It appears you accidentally added the letters 'cl' to that post. Perhaps your fingers slipped ;)

iron maiden too are quite cheesy but I love them and have done for decades
to be honest cheese is a subjective thing, one persons cheese is another persons great tune (with some exceptions, like mr blobby, bob the builder etc.)
but your airy-fairy, throwaway type tunes tend to be classed as cheese as is most 80's (chart type) tunes
but I love it all - bring on the vengaboys :p

Magneteer 23-09-2006, 14:21 I reckon Daniel O'Donnell has got to be the cheesiest singer ever!
getatrowel 23-09-2006, 22:17 is this a real thread? jesus
BoroughGal 23-09-2006, 22:30 Oh yes. I see you're new. Check out the rest of Slimsid's threads.
most of the 60's/7-'s/80's/90's Stuff that people class as "Party Tunes" - all the ones you hear towards the end of a Drunken party (usually weddings and 40th' birthdays) when everyone doesnt care, and gets up and dances any ways...
(such as Take That, or the row Boat Song (oops up side your head), some Adam and the Ants, Tom Jones - Delilah etc...)
Wodoish!!! 24-09-2006, 17:12 If you're unlucky enough to endure a night at the Kingdom nightclub, it's pure cheese from front to back! :gag:
the-lioness 25-09-2006, 07:43 I actually love alot of what you would call cheesy music cauze it puts me in a really fun mood! Like the music they play in Reflex some of it is cheese but I love dancing to it and singing aswell.
fantastic 25-09-2006, 12:05 Hmmm I guess one man's cheese is another man's cracker.
All of this reminds me of the Shirehorses (Mark and Lard) and their chesse based cover of Travis 'Why does it always rain on me' which they changed to 'Why is it always Dairylea, never gouda cheddar or brie'
