I think we can all agree that Strawberry Fields Forever is the best song in popular music history, right?
>>66131439
im cryyyyyyyyyyyyinnnnnggggg
>>66131439
b-but thats not Alvin Row
I agree but this thread wont be nice and its partly your fault
>>66131473
alvin row isn't a pop song
>>66131439
nice memes
>>66131481
gotta disagree with you anon.
it's definitely pop.
>>66131439
that's arguable, but I Am The Walrus is probably the best psychedelic song
>>66131439
Beach Boys have easily ten songs that surpass it.
>Best song in music history
Fixed that for you.
no but it's a great song. Lennon's best IMO, with I Am The Walrus
What Goes On by the Velvets is the best pop song of all time sorry
>>66131439
I'd tell you if I would've heard every pop song in history.
>>66131518
Like what?
I agree.
It's just sooooo fucking good.
Feels so nice and it makes me feel drugged even when I'm sober.
Pretty much senpai, A Day in the Life or God Only Knows might be other contenders
>>66131507
I don't think you know what pop is.
catchy =/= pop
>>66132473
Not him but
Cabinessence
Surf's Up
Wind Chimes
Good Vibrations
A day in the life of a tree
Till I die
I'm Waiting for The Day

>not including god only knows
edgy contrarian
>>66131439
No, I can name more than 100 better songs, and possibly 500 tracks.
>>66134254
list 30
>>66134245
How does that make me an edgy contrarian? I didn't say I disliked the song, it's a great song. I just picked ten other ones.
>>66134320
i just thought god only knows would be an easy choice. but you're right anyway

Are you saying that because I don;t like rusted swing sets playing in my music that I don;t even deserve to listen to music? How fucking useless are you? Do you just sit around and listen to music all day, judging people who respectfully say they don;t like one song you offered them? I bet you think of yourself as an artist, listening to all of your rusty swings and random moaning in your """Music""". And using the argument "Everyone else on this board listens to it, so you should to" and calling it "Normal" doesn't do anything for your """argument""". How fucking idiotic do you have to be to try to defend rusty hinge sounds as "music"? Are you that delusional? Fucking drink bleach, I can't believe that you are being serious. This is almost as bad as the /v/ hive mind.
>>66134636
i've seen bait lists and shit lists in my time spent on /mu/ but this is a new high...or low.

>I don't know what popular music is!
The term popular music belongs to a number of musical genres "having wide appeal"[1][2][3] and typically distributed to large audiences through the music industry. These forms and styles can be enjoyed and performed by people with little or no musical training.[1] It stands in contrast to both art music[4][5][6] and traditional or "folk" music.
Although popular music sometimes is known as "pop music", the two terms are not interchangeable.[7]

i know that you stupid fuck. this heat does not have "wide appeal" and can't be enjoyed by the vast majority of the population, so it's not pop music
inb4 "but it's so accessible!!1!! i'm an avant teen pay attention to my taste!!!!!"
>>66135554
Brian Wilson makes tons of Granny music and everyone loves him for it
To clarify: popular music is any music that's not classical, experimental, or folk.
Pop is a subset of popular music. Catchy songs written in verse/chorus, so Soft Cell, the VU, Nirvana, Grimes, and Sam Smith are all "pop",
It's literally worse than every song off of Innerspeaker and Lonerism, aside from maybe Elephant.
>>66134782
All of those songs are better than mr Lennon's
Good choice desu i would put life on mars and heroes up there too
