 Pop music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pop music is an important genre of popular music distinguished from classical or art music and from folk music
One of the biggest highlights for pop music in the 1980's was Michael Jackson's second solo album, Thriller, which went on to become the best-selling album of all time.
Pop music, in whatever musical influence form that it derives from, may be produced by a more basic songwriting approach and arrangement.

 Popular music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Popular music is music that is not something else (usually 'folk' or 'art' music).
Popular music is music belonging to any of a number of musical styles that are accessible to the general public and mostly distributed commercially.
It stands in contrast to classical music, which historically was the music of elites or the upper strata of society, and traditional folk music which was shared non-commercially.

 NodeWorks - Encyclopedia: Pop music
Depending on context, pop music is either an abbreviation of popular music or, more recently, a term for a sub-genre of it.
Pop songs often have a hook, one or more musical ideas repeated to "hook" a listener's interest.
Pop music is usually instantly accessible to anyone who is culturally inclined to take part, even the musical novice.

 Crazy About You:
Reflections on the Meanings of Contemporary Teen Pop Music
Young listeners of teen pop may be especially likely to interpret the lyrics of this music genre and use their meanings to define themselves and the roles of others in their lives.
Following Denisoff (1975) we define teen pop as the musical genre that is most popular with teenage audiences.
The distinction of music as a foreground or as a background is inevitably misleading, and can be perceived to be a reflection of a simplistic mode of thinking biased toward linear causality (Negus, 1996).

 Deleuze and Pop Music
But, Deleuze and Guattari insist, the refrain is not music, it is rather the block of content proper to music.
The effect of music, or any piece of art, is what it sets in motion for a particular listener.
Deleuze and Guattari argue that music is a creative, active operation that consists in deterritorializing the refrain.

Prior to the rise of rock 'n' roll in 1955, this style of music was American pop music, and it appealed to white Americans, and listeners in other English-speaking countries, of all ages and classes.
Thus, after 1955, the pop music field fragmented and, by the end of the twentieth century, that fragmentation had become so great that the term "pop music" is now very difficult to define.
The focus on palatable, tuneful, and unchallenging music did not necessarily mean music of poor quality.
