Powerpop Edit Meaning

1.

Style of music that employs rock and roll/punk elements and an emotional undertone in its songs. Basically combines Beatle song content/jangly guitars with Johnny Thunders-esque pace and riffs.

Powerpop reached its creative peak during the late 1970's & early 1980's. Regardless of what psuedo-scene girls say...it has nothing to do with hellogoodye and everything to do with 20/20, The Knack, The Raspberries, The Nerves, etc.

Hellogoodybe IS NOT powerpop...but the Nerves are.

See power pop, powerpop, 20/20, kbd, pop

When a female is pleasured by a popsicle being inserted into her vaginaly, replicating intercourse. Can be done with a partner, or in masturbatory means.
