What's your favourite song that you would consider a straightforward pop song? By this, I mean no dream pop or psychedelia, just a voice and some simple instruments in a pop format.

You like Huey Lewis and the News? Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humour.

William Bennett
Nothing wrong with going with the basic example.
Julian Cook

I would say Strawberry Fields might be a bit too psychedelic to count for this topic, I'd swap it with Penny Lane

No Rain, probably. But that's closer to alternative, I suppose. If that doesn't count, probably Let's Dance or Heroes
