pop at all.
As for current stuff, I think you're right -- I'm not sure there are a lot of current great pop artists happening right now. Swift is maybe the top of the list. Timberlake might turn out to be one as well. If Brandon Flowers' new album is as good throughout at the singles have been, it's going to be a killer.
But I'm not limiting myself to current music. Just interested in finding some good pop music for the working day.
