better than now yea

Early 2010s probably had the most catchy and ""interesting"" pop music, but remember that that's not setting the bar that high as far as quality goes.

1947 desu

late 2000s were desu

60s obvs the apex of pop music (motown and beach boys, just to get started)

singer-songwriter-countryish mid-70s stuff was a pretty good era

so was early 80s cyndi lauper/madonna/shannon/cars/B52s new wave/dance era

but 2010s were obvs better than the 00s

examples? besides Timbaland and Kanye

I think he's talking about pop music in its current vein, in the more modern style that's more "poppy" for lack of a better word.

YOU ARE ALL NOW NOSTALGING

This brings back shitty memories

nah son. the '00s as a whole was a shit decade for pop music.

50s and 60s pop is the best pop. 80s is a runner-up.

80s. I love synthpop.

Animal Collective and Ariel Pink made great pop in the late 00's and early 10's.

Call me maybe is GOAT

Okay Sup Forums, was there any good pop in 2016?

And don't say that Kero Kero Benito shit.

Side B

Drugdealer, AnCo, R. Stevie Moore all had pretty fun releases

I've got major nostalgia for those first two tracks but also Foster the People. Brings me back to the freshman year of highschool when I started using Sup Forums and played TF2 all night on my shitty laptop.

as far as the relatively recent past is concerned, sure, but the mid to late 60s was really the golden era of pop music

fucking this. 40s had class and they knew how to actually write music with interesting chords and modulation

>class

don't make me post it

ok, 2nd sound.

>rly goes to bed this time

60s (little into 70s)
Country was at its best probably, crossover pop with Nashville Sound, Cash, Parton, Loretta Lynn, Tammy Wynette, Jerry Lee Lewis.
Motown and Beach Boys like listed. British Invasion bands, Monkees, Beatles, Roy Orbison, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen.
Away from pop, there was TVU, Hendrix, Kingsmen, garage rock bands started emerging, Rolling Stones, the Byrds, King Crimson, Lynyrd Skynyrd, ZZ Top.
Seriously much during this time.

All of those bands "away from pop" are pop. TVU is pop music sans Sister Ray.

>People are already fucking nostalgic for the 2010s
Jesus Christ. Gangnam Style is still pretty fun though.

I could've gone the entire rest of my life without remembering that garbage. You're the worst.
