Ok, its own up time, lol.

To get the ball rolling.... im digging that 'How to Save a Life' song by The Fray. I heard it on Scrubs last week and wondered who it was.

Doesnt have to be a song thats out right now....c'mon all you N'Sync fans, fess up. :p

    I don't like any boy band or Britney Spears type pop, but I love Prince's classic stuff and a fair amount of old school Michael Jackson. Billie Jean is one of the greatest songs ever.

    Kanye West - Heard Em Say

    I guess that's really rap..but I think it's a little poppy. Adam Levine's vocals are great.

    Prince and MJ are great... but i wouldnt really put them in the 'pop' category, they're old skool proper pop. :D

    JT and Hanson are though, and i dunno who the Moffats are, lol.

    Forgive me father, for I have sinned...

    Michael Jackson used to be my favourite artist when I was like 12...

    And I still dance to Black & White. GREAT SONG. Poor Jacko turned weird though...

    Prince is brilliant...I have about 25 or so of his CD's...

    If Lenny Kravitz is pop, I like him too.
    Is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe?

    JT-everything except Cry Me a River
    Michael Jackson-Billie Jean, Thriller, Bad, All J5
    Robbie Williams-first two albums
    Madonna-Anything pre-dating 1990
    Scissor Sisters-Comfortably Numb
    and Prince is fantastic.

    ..and for the record I am not gay.

    Chris Cornell has a cover of billie Jean on his new album.

    Honestly, I like "I Want It That Way" BSB. There I said it. I know it's tragic.

    It's a VERY underrated album...good to see you left The Playboy Mansion off of that list--what a horrible song

    Me too. I love her voice. Kinda lazy and jazzy. I love her song, "Sinkin' Soon."

    Oh, and embarassing admissions? I listen to some of Gwen Stefani's songs, and find myself singing them all day.

    Anything by Pulp for me, I think they're one of the greatest pop bands ever:)

    the new my chemical romance album is a bit of a guilty pleasure as a whole. but actually....after listening to it it's difficult to call it a guilty pleasure because it's actually quite a descent album if you give it a chance. not a fan of their main genre at all, but you can hear many influences from some good bands on the new album.
