Feeling Poptimistic


Gonzo

Recommended Posts

Well, the Poptimism thread got blown up with the old board. This is unacceptable and must be changed.

 

Since I haven't heard any of the really new stuff over the past few months, I'll just go with some fairly recent ones instead.

 

Some Colbie Caillat. . .

 

 

Some Ingrid Michaelson. . .

 

 

And some Sara Bareilles

 

 

Bring forth the pop!

I refuse.

 

Instead, I'll post some other stuff.

 

I think the "Hello...." bit is absurdly good. I can't speak for the rest of the song but that's some sort of drunken rave bliss or something. Having a daughter now, Kesha scares the crap out of me.

 

 

Speaking of things that scare the crap out of me. 

 

 

Other things that scare me: How thoroughly Lana Del Ray has shifted into being a pop zombie:

 

 

And this one is abjectly great. I kind of love it. It's currently on my more indy alt-rock channel but I imagine it'll be a pop song in a month or two.

Let's do another compare/contrast with Lovato

 

Two songs that came out at almost exactly the same time.

 

Lovato's Made in the USA:

 

 

Bonnie McKee (Who writes songs for just about every pop singer)'s American Girl

 

 

It's like the goofus and gallant of pop songs here

This came out a couple of years ago now, my favourite pop song of the past 5 years or so, still on my mp3 player.

 

This song has no business being as fucking catchy as it is. Of course - I am still trying to figure out what the fuck she is wearing.
