There's plenty of great pop music today, it's just not always in the top 40. However, since the internet makes finding awesome artists more accessible than ever before [and since home-recording is more accessible than ever before] I would argue that there is probably MORE great pop music out there than in say, the 60s or 70s. You just have to dig a little to find it - but please, it's pointless listening to say, One Direction and claiming that music has regressed. There has been **** music from every decade - what about stuff like the Osmonds or the Bay City Rollers?

Here are some fantastic modern pop songs:

Of Monsters and Men - Little Talks - YouTube

Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know (feat. Kimbra) - official video - YouTube

Shiny Toy Guns "Le Disko" - YouTube

Bastille - Laura Palmer - YouTube

I could go on, but you take my point.
