What’s a guilty pleasure song?

I'm in a musical theatre mood! Though I do have some guilty pleasures (Charli xcx, Tyler the Creator, Olivia Rodrigo...) Something that isn't really a guilty pleasure, but one to me is "All I Need Is The Girl" from Gypsy. But very specifically the 2024 revival album. This is guilty to me because I literally have never listened to any other song from this musical, and I don't intend to....maybe. I've heard a few songs but I don't plan on going out of my way to finish listening. I wanted to see it on Broadway before it closed a few weeks ago, but literally only for this song and the actor who performs it, Kevin Csolak. I also don't love playing this song for other people because a good half of it is purely instrumental so his character, Tulsa, can dance LOL. So it gets pretty boring in the queue. I've seen a few videos from Broadway in Bryant park of his performance of this song and I've fallen in love with his dancing, and overall performance skill even more (I already have known him from seeing him as Paul in "The Outsiders" on Broadway and the 2021 "West Side Story" movie). For me, this song is so fun to sing, watch, and listen to, even though it's simple. Makes me want to dance as well!

Even more entertaining to watch!
