Popular (Darren Hayes song)

"Popular" (stylized as "Pop!ular") is a song from Australian singer-songwriter Darren Hayes' second solo album, The Tension and the Spark (2004). The lyrics are a tongue-in-cheek send-up of celebrities and wannabes. A radio edit was made that omits the instrumental section after the second chorus and also adds several new drumbeats to the second verse. The song was released in Australia on 12 July 2004.

Along with "Insatiable", "Pop!ular" is Hayes' highest-charting solo single in Australia, peaking at number three on the ARIA Singles Chart. In the United States, the song reached the top of the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart in March 2005, becoming Hayes' first single to top the chart as either a solo artist or with his former group, Savage Garden. A video was later released, showing Darren Hayes and two scantily clad models visiting various landmarks in London. A flash mob dance also takes place in one of the stations in London (Marylebone station).
