"Little Red Corvette" Prince
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?

Friday Night offering....... The Monroes - "What Do All The People Know?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRI_02EOsyI |
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 |
Pure by the Lightning Seeds is a standout pop song. For sure stuff like Abba's Dancing Queen and The Ronettes Be My Baby are the very essence of pure pop music. Phil Spector after trying to top that went into a similar downwards spiral as Brian Wilson did with the failure of Smile, when the magnificent River Deep, Mountain High failed to attain the same success. Talking of Brian Wilson, surely this must be one of their very best attempts at pop? The most expensive single ever produced til then, even outdoing Phil, a sure fire worldwide hit and a US and UK No1 in 1966. Good Vibrations by the Beach Boys. https://youtu.be/mdt0SOqPJcg |
