An orgers' Pantheon of Pop Songs

I was thinking of a thread in which we, very musically cultured Prince fans ('cause not everyone can appreciate Prince's music - as accessible pop as some of his songs may be), may aggregate jointly a rol of pop music gems (songs), so that we can share our tastes and pop music history knowledges.

For a criteria, we could use the rock era (circa Chuck Berry on) up until today's music. Genres that come near the idea of a pop song, such as... hmmm there are so many... Anyway, what's been made in popular music from this point on. We could indicate the genre of the song above an youtube video, so that the songs can be heard and commented. Avoiding the more experimental, extensive songs, nevetheless made by musicians that also played songs more applyable to the "pop song" designation. Regardelss, of course, if the songs got to be popular or not, since, being famous or not, does not indicate necessarily musical quality.

Mac & Katie Kissoon ~ Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep {1971}

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton
