The Tango album Wikipedia page describes its genre as pop rock & soft rock. I don't label IIM as pop rock or soft rock, I agree with you it's just rock. But I've always had a hard time trying to understand what they identify as pop music. The definition is so wide, that actually I don't consider it as a music genre per se, I see it more like the commercial approach they give it to a song. It's actually confusing, I mean I wouldn't say Little Lies or Everywhere are pop songs in terms of music genre, because in that case a pop song to me is Girls Just Want to Have Fun, and it doesn't sound like Christine songs, I wouldn't put them in the same basket with Cyndi songs. But I agree all of them were popular on radios. Does that make LL or HM a pop song? I don't know.
The live version of Over My Head in the 1980 album, I've always felt that intro sounds as country.
