PopTodd Posted November 11, 2010 Author Share Posted November 11, 2010 It is so good.That whole La's album is one giant perfect pop song! How about this one?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNKSs1J38EA Seems kinda kooky that it wasn't even on the first page. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PopTodd Posted November 11, 2010 Author Share Posted November 11, 2010 Okay, so not power pop... nor any sort of North American pop. But damn, it it catchy! Even if you don't speak Portugese (as I don't), you'll probably be singing along before long:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8vYTqqKwRw&feature=&p=F1E4830EC298612E&index=0&playnext=1Wish there were a better mix of this on YouTube, but I think this expresses the idea well enough. And, yeah, I would call this a perfect song. And a pop song. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PopTodd Posted November 11, 2010 Author Share Posted November 11, 2010 I've heard that one before, GtrPlyr! Who is that? There is some definite Minutemen influence there. And (this is fun), here is another one:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ww3c_DdDbZ0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cryptique Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I don't have a ready-made link to this one, but everyone should track down a song called "Losing Myself Too" by John Cunningham, from his album Happy Go-Unlucky. Cunningham is great, but he's virtually unknown. Joe Pernice's Ashmont Records recently reissued a couple of his albums that I don't think were previously available in the States.
