Re: Glorious Pop...
Although much of the music that appears on record charts is seen as pop music, the genre is distinguished from chart music. Identifying factors usually include repeated choruses and hooks, short to medium-length songs written in a basic format (often the verse-chorus structure), and rhythms or tempos that can be easily danced to.
Catchy stuff that is designed for the mainstream to have a broad appeal and sell lots of records.
POP
ABBA
Madonna
ABC
Taylor Swifts commercial stuff
NOT POP
The Jam
The Smiths
Chemical Brothers
Taylor Swifts country stuff

Re: Glorious Pop...
This is a classic example. Outkast are in no way a Pop unit. However this record is undoubtably one of the finest Pop records of the modern era with it's catchy hook and melody.

Re: Glorious Pop...
Look at Bendy telling everyone what pop music is, when he literally listens - almost exclusively, mind you - to ****ing brass band recitals. Oh, and his Blues Brothers soundtrack of course that he thinks makes him George Clinton. Aw, Bendy. Soppy Bendy. Soppy, confused Bendy. Soppy, confused, disoriented Bendy. Have a lay down, poppet.
Bendy, moments ago (and more-or-less all the time)
For the record, you daft old bugger:
The first track I posted was Sky Ferreira's You're Not the One from her debut album Nighttime, My Time, described on Wikipedia as Synth POP
The second track I posted was Think by Kaleida, described on Wikipedia as Electro POP
The third track was Worth It by Beabadoobee, described on Wikipedia as indie POP, folk POP and... hang on... bedroom POP
Daft old bugger.

While everyone else is posting tracks by ABBA and Taylor Swift, along you come with your little ensemble that could be a list of the latest Mercury Prize nominations.
Look at me with with my highbrow music tastes while you mere mortals roll around in your Bananarama mud pit.
The only bedroom pop you know is the bottle of R Whites Lemonade you keep by the side of your bed at night.
