It's up to us to take pop culture back and to express quality and dignity for both boys and girls.
Ashley Judd

It's very schizophrenic because I like a lot of very straight pop, like Small Faces, Stones, Kinks; and on the other hand, I like a lot of avant garde things.
Andy Partridge

Jazz radio is not very friendly to pop singers who decide to make a jazz record. But a lot of people have been. A lot of the people I've talked to like the record.
Rita Coolidge

Latin music has many international influences - pop, rock, country, Brazilian sounds, and alternative styles.
Ednita Nazario

Maybe I've got to admit that what I did here was enough. I can make some more films. Maybe I'll direct a film. Maybe I'll have my musical put on stage. But nothing, really, to be absolutely honest, competes with making a very successful pop band for 10 years of my life.
Gary Kemp

Mom and Pop were just a couple of kids when they got married. He was eighteen, she was sixteen and I was three.
Billie Holiday

Mom and Pop were proud of my popularity, but from their point of view, show business was no way to make a living.
Ethel Merman

More students have a better knowledge of pop culture than of the Constitution.
Charles Bowen

Most magazines have become wallpaper, they're all the same, all the same celebrities. It's really an abysmal time in American journalism right now. But occasionally one story or two will pop out.
David Talbot

Music is for people. The word 'pop' is simply short for popular. It means that people like it. I'm just a normal jerk who happens to make music. As long as my brain and fingers work, I'm cool.
Eddie Van Halen

My beloved Mom and Pop always rated tops with each other, and that's the way it will always be.
Ethel Merman

My biggest successes were mainly in the pop market during the 80s.
Juice Newton

My favorite type of music to sing is a crossover between country and pop.
Lauren Alaina

My first modeling job was Gap, and my first time in front of the camera was for a Soda Pop Girls commercial - it's one of those Bratz dolls, Barbie dolls...one of those.
Hailee Steinfeld

My idols are Janis Joplin and Annie Lennox, who are neither of them from the typical pop culture.
Natalie Cole

My primary influences were the best jazz players from the 50's and 60's and later some of the pop people from the same time period along with the better of the well known blues musicians.
Walter Becker

Nirvana was pop. You can have distorted guitars and people say it's alternative, but you can't break out of pop music's constructs and still get extensive radio play and media coverage.
Kristin Hersh

No, in 1968 I still wanted to be a Pop Star, and be about the music. Now, I want to be just about the music.
Peter Tork

Obviously I got known for some other songs early on, and some of those were rock'n'roll songs. Some of them were melodic pop songs. And I've done lots of different things, as you know, but every so often I get drawn back.
Elvis Costello

Once you 'got' Pop, you could never see a sign again the same way again. And once you thought Pop, you could never see America the same way again.
Andy Warhol
