Can't even tell me to my face? Pussy.

IF I can squeeze it in to my mighty workload I'd be interested in supporting this. Don't know a huge amount about pop but I'd be happy to take part.

Ha ha! Joke's on them!
Spoiler for the truth:
I don't have kids!

Good stuff TH. Hopefully yourself and others are turned onto some great music as a result of it.

BTW, I definitely need help with this when it comes to 'definitive' lists in some areas. I have generally avoided Pop music until the last year or two so my personal lists wouldn't include many of those that are generally be considered to be 'classics'. It's a group process anyway, so I'm sure we will get there.

And just so you know, Frostbite by Kitty is the winner of the thread. So... spoiler alert or whatever.

Just so long as this doesn't turn into a hipster elitist bull**** thread with twelve boring indie pop lists. Nothing against dream pop, but I'm convinced that it's the genre that hipster douchebags name drop when they want to sound like they listen to something other than Arcade Fire.

Goofle 01-16-2016 05:00 PM

I'll not allow it.

Let's not make this take forever to start like the rock survivor thread. I'm gonna work on at least one more list. We should plan on having this done and ready to go by next month. So do you think Indie Pop should include alt pop stuff like Vampire Weekend, or refer to Twee Pop groups? Or should they be separate lists entirely?

Hah! I couldn't agree more.

I don't plan on putting up too many lists, since I'm mostly dedicated to the rock one. BUt I'll be glad to help wherever necessary. So I'll put one up for psychedelic pop. I'll wait for more lists to come before I consider others.

1. Beatles - Magical Mystery Tour
2. Love - Forever Changes (amazing album)
3. Bee Gees - 1st
4. Beach Boys - Surf's Up
5. Zombies - Odyssey and Oracle
6. Monkees - Headquarters
7. Kaleidoscope - Tangerine Dream
8. Donovan - Mellow Yellow
9. The Flaming Lips - Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
10. The Kinks - Something Else by the Kinks

Sorry if anyone feels that I'm uploading too many lists for these. I'm just hyped to be having a good discussion for once in a while. I kind of obsess over genres.

EDIT: Sorry! I have one more I'd like to submit.

Pop Soul

1. Laura Nyro - More Than a New Discovery
2. Jackson 5 - ABC
3. Dusty Springfield - Dusty in Memphis
4. The Temptations - Gettin' Ready
5. Diana Ross - Diana Ross
6. Amy Winehouse - Back in Black
7. Simply Red - Stars
8. Earth Wind & Fire - Faces
9. Stevie Wonder - Songs in the Key of Life
10. Adele - 21

Ehhg. I feel dirty writing this one...

Now that I think about it some of these are actually decent. Jimmy, TBS, Saves the Day, and Blink in particular. The rest, not so much.
