Perfect Pop Songs


Those with the kind of music, lyrics, performance, arrangement and production that you could easily repeat all day.

How about starting with this one? Somewhat outside of her usual cannon and none the worse for it. Perhaps also a contender for the sexiest vocals ever?

A sincere thanks to all taking the time to respond to this. I can almost see the smile on some of your faces as I read your posts.

I'll add a song that stuck in my head as a kid.

Winchester Cathedral - The New Vaudeville Band

Somehow, we've managed to forget two very obvious choices:

Be My Baby - The Ronettes
When My Baby's Beside Me - Big Star

Here's a few more less obvious songs from the "new wave" era:

How She Threw It All Away - The Style Council
Gang of One - Bradford
Dig For Fire - The Pixies
The Sound of Crying - Prefab Sprout
Don't Run Wild - The Del Fuegos


I’m an older guy and  recognize/know many of the aforementioned titles. I’m exploring NEW pop. Try the band Sofi Tukker- you’ll recognize some of their songs as music in Apple commercials. Energetic, fun lyrics not to be taken too serious- which to me is part of pop culture and pop music. It’s only my opinion so don’t hate on me
