Few musicians get better with age. Nick Lowe is an exception: At 61, Lowe is part crooner, part country and a little crotchety, but with a heart of pure pop. Watch the veteran singer-songwriter perform a four-song set in the NPR Music offices.

Set List:

"Man That I've Become"
"Rome Wasn't Built In A Day"
"All Men Are Liars"
"House For Sale"

    I like his voice better when he's old rather than when he was young.

    So what exactly defines "a heart of pure pop"? Is that just writing music specifically targeted to be popularly enjoyable? As opposed to "artistic" stuff only certain types like? I've always thought of "pop" as a bad word, but if taken literally as "popular", it's not all that bad. Not if this music is considered "pop". I'm thinking if that's right, then maybe people (including me) have gotten "pop" and "commercial" mixed up, and "pop" isn't so bad. I mean, I like oldies...isn't that "pop" too?
