Top 20 Mejores canciones Pop de la historia (Top personal)

Muy pronto, cada día una canción, hasta conformar mi top 20 de las mejores canciones Pop de la historia.

La mecánica será la siguiente, haré un top 20 de cada década(1 canción por banda o cantante, exceptuando colaboraciones), desde la década de los 60 hasta la actualidad, en ese top habrá música pop, no sólo pop puro, sino también mezclado con otros géneros pero siempre en el que el pop sea el género predominante. 

A partir de esos tops se irá formando el top 20 final cada día, tendré en cuenta el impacto de la canción en la música, la calidad y el componente melódico de cada tema y en este caso el orden será importante.
