Shift in Pop Music trend?...
Pop music most recently focused on club and mild electronic sounds.
However with two new songs out, retrograding to an amped-up 80's sound, does anyone think this could be the new direction pop will head in for a while?
Song 1) Black Eyed Peas, Meet Me Halfway http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LK1CGsUi6w4
Song 2) Jordin Sparks, S.O.S. (Let the Music Play) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32FRl3glzQE

"En Unión y Libertad".... lo estoy buscando... un día, me encontrará.
High Fructose Corn Syrup
You know what they say about it?That it's made from corn, chemically altered, directly linked to hypertension, CVD and liver damage; and effectively causes type II diabetes and obesity?
Get the facts - from a medical professional - not the Corn Refiners' Association.

No, but I think at this rate, the only direction pop music is heading towards is a brick wall.
My iPod has everything from Bach to Slayer, and I'll listen to almost anything.

Pop can head any way it wants to. Look at Lady GaGa. She has influenced pop in such a weird way, but it's amazing. I think it's certainly possible, seeing all the new artists. I really hope that Justin Bieber just doesn't influence it.

Re: Shift in Pop Music trend?...
It seems pop is starting to become more dominant again. If I recall, early 2006 to about late 2008, I swear Hiphop/Rap dominated the Mainstream radio. Pop is finally starting to finally get it's rightful thrown on the airwaves again. Though I'm not a fan of all pop, it's sure better than what I used to hear a few years ago.
I also think because of Hiphop during that time, Pop was more geared toward R+B/Soul. At the moment, I'm starting to realize it's shifting to a more techno-ish, electronic type of phase. Synthesizers and unnessecary vocal effects are starting to bloom again. Even a lot of the (wannabe) rock bands on the radio are incorporating electronic and techno sounds. Dance music is also starting to become quite mainstream also.
I think the change is nice. This type of music does have a tendency with the beats sounding repetitive after a while, but it's quite natural for pop music. Britney, Gaga, Madonna, Katy Perry, anyone you hear on the radio uses a formula -- a type of beat and/or collection of instrumentals that most appeal to the crowd
Catchiness is the key.

I think pop has a lot more 'club' feel to it lately than it did a few years ago.

Re: Shift in Pop Music trend?...
I think lots of pop is going back to a kind of eighties club mix feel. It's a good direction.
