There are so many Jangle pop songs that there is not way I am getting even close to covering a comprehensive look at it. K at Butterboy did a decent job of that, so check that out (although I liked K's list it had some tracks that I would argue weren't as much jangle pop as power pop or psychedelic even though there is obviously a lot of crossover). In fact, you could easily argue the same with my pick. And there is crossover from K's comprehensive list to my short one. But I made a few different choices, if not bands, then tracks. And I think a few bands that didn't make the K list. Doesn't matter. This is just my favorite list and I'm sure everyone has one that is different, if even slightly. Hope you like mine. I really just wanted to make a pop art jangle cover that probably fits better with power pop. Oh well.
