Kai:
I concur wholeheartedly with the above post.
Johnny C:
And for the record I concur with the three posts prior to Kai. I think that "indie pop" is as viable a subgenre as any other.

--- Quote from: DynamiteKid ---WYWH is my favourite Floyd album, one of my favourite albums ever, and I think it's the Floyd's greatest work. But, yes, I agree, it is not pop by any stretch.
As for Nevermind...I have seen that kid's dick WAY Too many times for my liking.

Actually, it is pop by "any strectch"--literally, actually. So there's an extended instrumental section at the beginning and end. "Shine on You Crazy Diamond," once it begins, follows conventional song structure. The three songs that follow it are shorter and also follow a more conventional structure, and they're played on classic rock radio all the time.

That's a bit of an assumption to make. 'Excluding the enormous orchestral swell at the middle and end, A Day In The Life follows normal song structure.'
Why ignore the part that defines the song?
brew:
Considering Spirit of Eden and Laughing Stock were in the original post, everything that's been listed here is pop. Clearly, this is about pop in the sense of the broad "genre" of "popular music". As in "not classical music" and the like.
I'm still looking for a definition of "fake emotion".
