Can someone define pop for me, to prevent misunderstanding?

Pop = Popular, right? But for me, it's started to define a certain music tune.

What I got out of the Green Day: Behind the Music was that they were their own punk. It's not a huge thing, though.

Yeah, I was pretty surprised that Green Day and Blink 182 were touring together as well. Two of my favorite bands though!

I agree with what TIEace said - Pop, for me, has come to mean Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, etc.

Yeah. I really hate Blink, but Green Day and Jimmy Eat World should even it out for me.

Terra sums up my feelings on the word pop right there. When I listen to early Beatles, I know it's pop because of much of the subject matter. You listen to their later stuff and you know that it's no longer pop music. Today, pop has definately come to be most greatly associated with Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys etc. Not bands like Green Day. Just so know what my definition of pop is.

Pop is popular music. It's that simple. It doesn't matter what genre it is.
