Awesome list. I might call it vocal, though.
Anyway id include Frank Sinatras "Watertown". He is one of my all time favorites and "watertown" is among "in th wee small hours" and "songs for swingin lovers". These musicians are probably the most underrepresented here.

Really? Interesting. I've never considered Mancini to be instrumental to the pop tradition.

to me, pop would be defined by the construct of the song.. so pink floyd could not be considered pop, or king crimson, or pop-rap stuff like snoop dogg as it isn't strictly sing-a-long verse chorus verse stuff
"waterloo sunset" and "you really got me" are 2 of the best pop songs ever written.. sure if they were written today they'd probably synthesized with a drum machine behind them, and you wouldn't call them "pop rock", but they are absolutely pop music
i only listed surrealistic pillow by jefferson airplane as it's the only one of theirs i've heard which is strictly pop.. volunteers and after bathing at baxsters are not strict adherents to the pop construct
