I can't believe it, a Vogues song being listed as being one of the greatest pop songs ever. I really loved this group and they had some really good tunes in the early to mid 60's certainly 5 o'clock world would be one of them. Who would have ever though that they would ever be remembered and honored by being considered as having "the greatest pop song ever" 45 years later, a group somewhat similar to the Association if not quite as popular at the time. By the way talk about harmonies no one mentions "Cherish" great harmonies and a pretty good tune as well. Too bad it was quite overplayed none the less it was probably the biggest pop song of 1966.
What is conspiciously absent are any of the great pop songs prior to the 60's. Have they been considered or is this list limited to 60's - current? Stardust, Body and Soul, My Funny Valentine, Night and Day, come to mind immediately. What about Fire and Rain, Like a Rolling Stone, Blowin in the Wind.
My top nominee is Stardust. Bad Romance is tops for guilty pleasures :)
