Boom is an all time fave pop psychedelic song for me. Also Pop Life is a cool psychedelic pop.

It's feels sort of psychedelic to me. OP has Delirious in his list so i'm thinking his idea of psychedelic is not too strict.

True, I don't think Delirious is psychedelic... seems more like a synth take on old fashioned rock n roll.

Around the World in a Day is.

Even Joy in Repeitition could be considered.

Starfish and Coffee.

Pop Life

Wasted Kisses

Oh yeah, they have very trippy arrangements and production. Both very surreal and exotic.

I would argue, that from 84 on a lot of his best work has strong psychedelic elements. Think of the trippy vibe and Theremin-like sound at the end of "If I Was Your Girlfriend",

the tablas and sitar in the original "Strange Relationship", the slowed down cymbal and eerie (barely audible) synth in "It", the whole of "Crystal Ball", effects & instrumentation in "Scarlett Pussy", weird Crystal Ball string sample in "The Future" etc...
