I'm not sure if this is what you mean but, baroque is not the same as pop.

Baroque was very popular in the 17th century, I'm pretty sure that pop wasn't.

It was written by people like Handel and Vivaldi. Look up the Four Seasons by Vivaldi and that, is true baroque.

Try this Baroque pop is to pop music what progressive rock is to rock music. It's a more complex form, likely to have more varied instrumentation and/or more ambitious song structures. Whilst the term baroque originated in 1960's music journalism due to a trend of using the harpsichord in pop songs, today it is often used by music journalists in another definition of baroque, which is to say it is more ornate and complex than most pop music. Referring to modern artists the two most often cited are the classically influenced ornate pop songs of Rufus Wainwright, and the complex arrangements of Sufjan Stevens' music with their non-standard time signatures, instrumentation and counterpoints.
