im surprised noone mentioned depeche mode yet. shouldve been the first thing posted in a synthpop thread.
kesha isnt really synthpop, though...
I was planning to get around to them at some point. Depeche Mode are basically a godfather of synthpop. They were among the first to combine synthesizers with pop. They honestly aren't one my favorites but they do some have some excellent songs and I am a fan. That song I posted by Keshsa is synthpop. The beginning of the song may not have elements of synthpop but the main part of the song is electopop or synthpop (basicly a term for modern synthpop). Not all of Kesha's songs are synthpop and she is not really considered a synthpop artist. But if the song meets the right characteristics, its a synthpop song by definition:
