永远的流行音乐

Music that‘s always on top

永远的流行音乐

WE all like pop music but what is it? The definition of pop music is flexible. Music that is considered to be pop is constantly changing.

我们都喜欢流行音乐，但什么才是流行音乐呢？流行音乐的定义非常灵活。因为只要是流行的音乐通常都是不断变化着的。

The saying that “one man’s meat is another man’s poison，” is nowhere more applicable than in the world of pop. Perhaps the easiest way to identify pop music is that it always satisfies more people than it poisons.

俗话说，“萝卜青菜，各有所爱”，这句话最适用于流行界。或许，对流行音乐最简单的界定就是，比起受它毒害的人，从中得到满足的人更多。

Music for the masses

大众音乐

Since the mid-1950s， pop music has been identified as the style of music accessible to the widest audience. This means the music that sells the most copies， draws the largest concert audiences and is played most often on the radio.

自从20世界50年代中期以来，流行音乐就被定义为拥有最广泛大众的音乐类型。由此，这种音乐唱片卖的最多，音乐会上人数最多，在收音机中也最常播放。

Pop music has been and continues to be a melting pot that borrows and assimilates elements and ideas from a wide range of other musical styles. Rock， RB， country， disco， punk， and hip hop are all specific genres of music that have influenced and been incorporated into pop music over the past 50 years.
