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?

I may disagree about it being the best song ever recorded, but stage impression surely makes up for any imperfection...

For my Thursday Evening offering I could choose nearly any song on Elvis Costello's "My Aim is True" that I'm spinning on the TT right now. But my nomination goes to.......

Elvis Costello - "(The Angels Wanna Wear My) Red Shoes"

pop is short for popular last time I checked.

We all know what popular means, right?
It’s not very complicated.

Popular means a lot of people like it. The most popular are the ones the most people like to listen to the most.

According to popularity ratings for songs in my Plex music library the most popular song there with 15 million + votes is “Smells Like Teen Spirit’” followed closely by Viva La Vida, Wonderwall, Karma Police, and Creep.  Not too shabby!

Disclaimer: no Taylor Swift in my music library though Adele and Lady Gaga make an appearance or two and rank high.
