Perfect Pop Songs.

You know what I mean, not necessarily popular, though they might be. "Solsbury Hill" by Peter Gabriel or "Waterloo Sunset" by the Kinks or "The Brides Have Hit Glass" by Guided by Voices are all good examples.

maximumjack is correct, Glad Girls really needs another verse, or to be half the length...like the great, but short Teenage FBI

The other 2 tunese he mentions are indeed perfect.

I believe this meets the criteria. Pretty much a perfect song IMHO.

If this is a pop song, and I think it is (I could hear it on early 70's AM radio), this is pretty damn fine:

Hey all...late to the thread, working overtime lately...+1 on "Amnesia" by the Rubinoos!

Can't believe no one has mentioned "Couldn't I Just Tell You" yet!

Couldn't I Just Tell You! You have chosen. Wisely.

So Mike Nesmith. Yeah. WTF, right? Private, reclusive, mysterious for many years. A couple of years back, he got on Facebook and he posts long, winding tales about himself, his dogs, his home, his past, and a really lovely Mother's Day post last weekend. Photos go up.
