There are some BJ songs that I could consider pop, but Everyday is not one of them. When I heard it for the first time, I was in the car going to work. I called my roommate on her cell to make sure she was listening and the first thing I said was, "Oh my God! Listen to how hard that guitar sound is!" Just that opening riff... Kind of took me by surprise, it was more rock than I expected it to be.
Pop started out meaning popular music, but it has evolved into it's own category. The likes of Britney Spears and NSync are pop. That type of music is what defines pop music now. They certainly can't be considered rock and Bon Jovi can't be lumped together with them musically speaking.
