The first stirrings of popular or pop music—any genre of music that appeals to a wide audience or subculture—began in the late 19th century, with discoveries by Thomas Edison and Emile Berliner. Pop music is the genre of popular music that produces the most hits. A hit is a song that sells many copies, and the latest hits are listed every week on the charts. Most pop songs are between two and five minutes long, and the lyrics are usually about the joys and problems of love and relationships.]]> 2021-06-09 18:27:35 UTC https://padlet.com/gessesm001/wwsm3cqlpmo8j9gf/wish/1596570403 gessesm001 https://padlet.com/gessesm001/wwsm3cqlpmo8j9gf/wish/1605473678 In 2018 56.1% of Americans listened to pop music.
