Make A Perfect PJ Pop Album

Alright, here’s the deal. No Code-Lightning Bolt era, 12 tracks, all studio versions, one studio cover allowed. Side projects are acceptable entries as well. This is what you think would be the best collection of poppier tunes that if released would obviously be geared at being more mainstream. 

And the reason the first three aren’t included is because those songs are already in the pop world of familiarity. 

Any order works. The only rules are that they have to come from the years mentioned and have to be studio. 

This could be fun.

    To me "pop" can be heavy (both in sound or lyrics). More of a "hits" collection but...

    Hail Hail
    In My Tree
    Present Tense
    Given To Fly
    Do the Evolution
    In Hiding
    Light Years
    I Am Mine
    Save You
    WWS
    Unthought Known
    Just Breathe

    No Fixer or Sirens from me.

    Absolutely. That’s a good list. You would think there’s a place for most of those songs on modern rock stations, buuuuut...I guess not. I’m sure I’m missing some obvious ones, but it’s a start. 

    Life Wasted
    Hail Hail
    Save You
    Down
    The Fixer
    U
    Sirens
    Sad
    Given to Fly 
    Smile
    Light Years
    Future Days

    "U" is definitely a poppy song. Also, I initially had "Sad" on my list but dropped it for "Just Breathe" - I prefer Sad but JB has more radio potential, I suppose.

    That’s the exact issue I had. Just Breathe or Sad. 

    Also...ah, ah, ah! Gibson didn’t read the rules...despite having a solid list.
