What is the greatest pop song ever written?

[Brave Volunteer]

I mean, it has to be this one, right?

 

[McDad]

There are about a dozen songs spanning several decades that I will listen to from beginning to end no matter how many times I have heard them. To me, those are the greatest. But not all of them are pop songs. Journey's Don't Stop Believing is not on my list.

Dancing Queen..admit it, you crank it and sing it..when alone of course,,lol.

That’s a tough one , starting with earlier hits like “Don’t be Cruel “(Elvis) , “She loves you” (Beatles which by the way is the perfect pop song ) “I get around “(Beach Boys ) to later hits like “Take it Easy “ (Eagles ) , “Thats All “ (Genesis ) , (another perfect pop song) , “Beat It “& “Billie Jean” (MJ) , “Free Falling “ (Tom Petty).

I will say that “One Headlight “ (Wallflowers ) is probably the last great pop song that comes to mind .

Also, is "Don't Stop Believing" actually a pop song?

"Ain't No Mountain High Enough" being forgotten by me, JESUS, this is hard.
