Obviously peoples idea of pop is alot different than mine. I see 'Pop' as The Shins, The Dissociatives, The Sleepy Jackson, etc etc. And, of course, the Beatles.

HaydenAsche · 01.09.2008, 08:18 PM

Regina Spektor
Fiona Apple
Fiest
the Shins

i dont know if you ever heard this record, thriller or somethin made by some insane guy named jacko or whatever, but its prolly the most perfect pop (pop as in that its good music that appeals to the masses) record made, besides pet sounds.

Blondie, but you probably already have it.

Rob Instigator · 01.10.2008, 09:04 AM

pop music does NOT ROCK

if it rocks, even in the slightest, then it is "poppy" ROCK, not POP MUSIC!

the beatles were ROCK. never forget it.

01.10.2008, 09:12 AM

Rob, man, The Beatles WERE POP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rob Instigator · 01.10.2008, 09:29 AM

the beatles were a ROCK BAND man. they were POPULAR, but that does not mean they were POP.

paul mccartney skewed them that way though....

Revolution
day in the life
get back
taxman
everybody's got siomething to hide cept for me and my monkey
why don;t we do it in the road
helter skelter
strawberry fields

I WANT YOU (SHE'S SO HEAVY)
etc etc etc etc

most of their songs are straight up ROCK songs man!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HECKLER SPRAY · 01.10.2008, 09:32 AM

You have a skewed MTV perception of what 'Pop' is.

I give up.

I'm not sure if I'd call the Beatles a 'Rock' band at all. Maybe a few individual songs, but generally they were Pop. It's obvious that Lennon was heading sllightly more in the Rock direction, but the band split before they could ever really become a Rock band, as such. Besides, with Macca's interest in avant-garde composition, Harrison's growing interest in electronics and Lennon's political 'radicalism' I'm guessing that had they ever BECOME a rock band, it would've probably been more along the lines of something like Amon Duul or Faust than AC/DC. Unfortunately, we'll never know, and the post-Beatles solo albums offer next to no help whatsoever.

auto-aim · 01.11.2008, 08:12 AM

definition of pop is an odd thing... i fucking hate that joy division is pop now - love will tear us apart is like the only song people know if i ever play a cover live and you i saw it in an ad the other day for some compliation it really makes me fucking sick for a couple of reasons that i wont go into... but ive always kind of liked bands that were really alternative but flirted with the mainstream in a big way - the cure are a perfect example... i dont feel like getting into the subject right now. however - i think i'd define it as anything that's been manufactured in someway or another... or really indicative of the time - being heavily marketed that kind of stuff...

The Pippettes are the best pop band ive seen in years...
