Sometimes I use pop music for sight-reading and arranging-on-the-spot practice-- the trick to pop music is to never play exactly what is on the page.
That being said, I have a few books of 100+ "songs" each, and I read through them all from time to time.

I must admit to the odd bit of Elton John. I even put on my large glasses to play it.
Whilst not considered as pop, i am rather proud of my Fats Waller impression.
I think i will compose a piece called the OC Blues.

When i was in secondary shool i would play Hello by Lionel Richie for singers and then in college i played a lot of pop music for female singers as a performing art students, thats before i became a serious student. Actually i know its illegal but can someone post the notes for the Lionel Richie song , it will remind me of secondary school, the good old days.
