Favorite decade for music?

[Homo Erectus]

I like the music from the 1860's best.

That joke got done already, doofus.

Contemporary music has been caught in a fetid whirlpool of mutated hip-hop and manufactured pop stars since the boy-band craze in the 90s. I'd call this past decade the Dark Ages.

The 2000s were a good decade for music, it's just that none of it got airplay.

FBI is correct. Eggs, don't just take FBi or my word for it...here..

I love the 70s and know a lot of 80s and 90s thanks to the kid. I'm still partial to Jack White.

I go 80s, but not hair music. I stick with The The, Echo & the Bunnymen, Siouxsie and the Banshees. When new wave music first started becoming more popular. Even though the 90's come a very close, close second.

Awww...I love that music!!! LoL, Eggs. AND I'M NOT A CUTTER

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

I love Echo & the B too! I was quoting the lyrics to their song "The Cutter".

 

[Tisiphone]

LOLOL

See what happens when I don't sleep?? I thought you were calling it cutter music. Holy Zeus.

This is almost impossible. I spent most of my childhood in the 1980's (born '76), and most of my propert growing through Grunge & Britpop in the 1990's.

Having really 'found' music, I feel the late Beatles / Prog-Rock to Just Post-Punk period of 1967-1979 is the most exciting period of change in music.

That doesn't really answer the question, though, so if I had to, I'd choose the 1970's, which has a perfect blend for me. It's a toughie, because I have so much different stuff on my iPod from 1926 - present.

Has to be 80's. "Best" is a relative term, but it's definitely my favorite.

That's why I said "Favorite" instead of best PAY ATTENTION MAN K THX BYE PILLZLOL!!

 

[jack]

Have to say the 60's. Anything that kickstarted with the beatles and ended with woodstock and Miles Davis is hands down my favrit.

 

[Big Dick McGee]

It really came down to two decades for me, the 80's or the 90's. I LOVED alot of the music in the 80's, everything from pop stuff like Culture Club to rock like Van Halen, etc. But 80's rap was my favorite; Run-DMC, Beastie Boys, LL Cool J, I loved all rap until it morphed into gangsta.

Still, I chose the 90's because it's when I came of age. I graduated high school in 1989, and my college years exposed me to tons of music I'd never heard, some if it from the 80's but most of it new. I just loved, loved, loved the grunge scene, and I'm still a fan of Pearl Jam to this day.

1970-1975 1973 was the zenith as everyone who was ANYBODY had a definitive album that year. They were so definitive,. they left themselves with no place for an encore. 1983 until 1988. 1993-1996. Then the air leaked out and nothing was good anymore.

 

[Cassie]

That's incredibly accurate, actually!
