You beat me to the punch Andrea! Supertramp had at least 6 great pop prog songs spread over "Breakfast in America" and "Crime of the Century".

I've heard this one in a casino once. Together with Money by PF. The DJ in the casino must have been a prog fan. |

I think Surf's Up is the greatest song that Brian Wilson ever wrote and would give Paul McCartney's Eleanor Rigby a run for it's money. If we're talking about a prog song written by a Pop artist then Elton's John's Funeral For a Friend would qualify here. Also have to agree that Whiter Shade of Pale is not only great pop, but also great prog.

I just want to say that this comment looks hilarious combined with your Geddy Lee avatar.

Hey guys check out my band While Stella Sleeps! We are a combination of post rock, and pop rock. Def under the umbrella of Prog pop! My fave song is death by stella, not to be immodest but i think it def deserves a nomination for best prog pop song!
https://www.facebook.com/whilestellasleeps?fref=ts Theres a free download of our 6 song EP up on our band camp! Enjoy!

Wov! Very proggy for ESC. Here is also one nice example - totally instrumental although not so close prog. It didn't make it to ESC - it was 2nd in our national selection: |

Celestial by Under the Psycamore is just an amazing pop-prog song in my opinion!
