I don't care what you say, bubblegum pop rules!

Are you in the mood for some catchy music? I hope so, and I hope you enjoy the ride. Brush your teeth, sit down and relax!

A few favorites that would make my readers scream... in distaste. Oops, my bad. Too late!Storified by Werner Merkwürdigliebe · Tue, Nov 20 2012 20:09:14Hanson rescued music from those moody, languid alternative rockers. For what's worth, without Them Britney wouldn't have had a chance!
Hanson - MMMBophansonvevoYou have so many relationships in this life / Only one or two will last / You go through all this pain and strife / Then you turn your back and they're gone so fast ... (In your face, Cobain!)
I couldn't miss "Sugar Sugar"! When you're a small kid, this song is simply perfect! And yes, I'm an Archie fan!
The Archies - Sugar, Sugar (Original 1969 Music Video)windsorbearSugar, ah honey honey / You are my candy girl / And you've got me wanting you. / Honey, ah sugar sugar / You are my candy girls / And you got me wanting you ...A lot of guilty pleasures right here, indeed. This girls showed they could out-B52 the B-52's with just one single!
Shampoo - Troublecont0Uh-oh, we're in trouble / Something's come along and it's burst our bubble (yeah, yeah) / Uh-oh, We're in trouble / Gotta get home ... Uh-oh, we're in trouble ... (When the song starts right by the hook, it sure spells trouble!)Del Shannon was sold as a teen idol with this single. He later proved succesfully he was more than that. He even showed that bubblegum doesn't have to be that upbeat, innit?
Del Shannon - Runawayfolkman123As I walk along, / I wonder what went wrong, / With our love, a love that was so strong. / And as I still walk on, / I think of the things we've done /Yes! More bubblegum, please! Pretty please with sugar on top???
Herman's Hermits - I'm Into Something Good (1965)_HQnyrainbow5Herman Hermits, you're welcome.
Hey, you may think this guy's alreadyon his way out, but he is a very talented musician. Give him a chance and lok for the rest of his discography.
PSY - GANGNAM STYLE (강남스타일) M/VofficialpsyIn the meanwhile, go OPPA GANGNAM STYLE!
Call me names if you feel like it, but this song makes me want to be a teenager again!
Carly Rae Jepsen - Call Me MaybecarlyraejepsenvevoIt's hard to look right,At you baby,But here's my number,So call me, maybe?
Hey, I just met you,And this is crazy,But here's my number,So call me, maybe?
