Top 5 On Friday


Top 5 power pop songs


You guys know the drill. Play along in the comments or in your journal. This meme is created for my site Music Memoirs. Feel free to go there and check out my other weekly memes and play along.

1. Fountains Of Wayne - Stacey's Mom: Probably one of the most overplayed and slightly obnoxious earworms of its time, but it is still one of the best power pop songs of the last 20 years.

2. Cheap Trick - I Want You, To Want Me: One of the best Trick songs and probably one of the best power pop songs ever.

3. Jellyfish - Baby's Coming Back: You've probably not heard of this one, but its still awesome and catchy and cute.

4. Nick Lowe - Cruel To Be Kind: This is probably one of my favorite songs period, power pop or otherwise.

5. Weezer - Buddy Holly. This song is brilliant and the video is adorable
