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 fans are grown now. They are not expecting me to do the bubblegum pop I did 20 years ago, even though it was pretty substantive. It was saying more than bubblegum pop says today. I am continuing where I left off.
Irene Cara

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

Our centers spread the floor, shoot the three and block shots. We can play pick and pop.
Steve Nash

People always seem to be interested in my private life because I'm married to a pop star.
Jamie Redknapp

Peter was sick of being a pop star, the guitar god, and so he decided to teach himself other instruments. Among the instruments that he picked up was the mandolin.
Michael Stipe

Political people don't solve stuff - not really. Political people are like guys in pop music.
Bruce Sterling

Pop art is the inedible raised to the unspeakable.
Leonard Baskin

Pop Art looks out into the world. It doesn't look like a painting of something, it looks like the thing itself.
Roy Lichtenstein
