Perfect Pop Songs

@ericsch ,

Wow, that is brilliant. Thanks!

I hadn't heard of Lorrie Morgan but she may well have posted the definitive version of this classic.

She must have ice in her veins to stay that cool in such company.

Talking of beautiful vocals here's Dianne and Annita from 1965 with my favourite version of  'A Groovy Kind of Love'

Carole King/Gerry Goffin: “Will You Love Me Tomorrow” is to my mind the greatest pop song ever written. (Her own version of it.) Genius lyrics and melody.
Still can’t get it out of my head.

Agreed @rvpiano, that song defines Pop. Carole and Gerry wrote a lot of fantastic songs, including the astounding "Halfway To Paradise", recorded in the 1980's by Nick Lowe, a great version.

Like Captain Renault, I'm shocked, simply shocked.

How could I have forgot to mention perhaps the most perfect pop record ever cut?

If there's anything wrong with this then it's beyond my comprehension.

Shelley Fabares - Johnny Angel US no 1 1962
