Hey everyone, hope all is well today/tonight. I was wondering what you alls' favourite decade of music might be, whether it may be anything at all, especially onwards from the 60's to the 2000's!
Personally, my favourite is the 90's - Love it all, from the Grunge to the 90s Alternative, in particular.

Wow, you sound pretty much exactly like me! I was a little kid in the 90's, but I love the music from it so much. And yes, the 2000's were my teenage years as well, good music as well! I also like jazz, though I do not particularly listen to it very often, but it is a nice genre of music :)
Glad to have someone with the same taste.

I suppose the 1970s as that was when I first really became interested in pop music at the age of 13 in 1973.There's a lot I like from the 60s and 80s (although there's a particular 80s keyboard sound that sounds rather dated now) and a certain amount from the 90s. Since then there have just been odd tracks.

Cool cool. Random question, but do you like Depeche Mode by any chance? They have done quite well for themselves, have lasted quite a long time and I think they have always had pretty cool keyboard sounds, among other things, like good vocals and everything else.

@mawdest I love Depeche Mode, from their 1981 first hits to more recent songs like Wrong. I'm thinking more of the big synth sound heard on pop hits of the era rather than that of very distinctive indie bands.

@asfarasiknow That's great that you love Depeche Mode too! :)
Aha! Alright, I see what you're saying now. Yeah nothing like that sound.. Definitely, it defined the whole decade, pretty much, if you ask me.

The 1950s. The pop music was fabulous (Pat Boone notwithstanding) (Sinatra, the Platters, Patti Page); the rock and roll was fresh and new (Buddy Holly, Elvis); the R&B was terrific (Sam Cooke, James Brown); and the country music was in its golden age (Hank -- Williams, Thompson, Locklin, Penny, and Snow). I wasn't alive then, but oh the music I discovered from that decade.
The 80s were pretty terrific, too. I was around for that decade. Despite the downward spiral in mainstream music thanks to the closing of the FM rock playlists and the rise of the look-alike, sound-alike hair bands, there was some unbelievable music in the 80s.

Ahh yes, I totally underestimated the 50's, I didn't even include that in the decades I put as a reference! Silly me.
Yes, you're definitely right about 80's music as well! For the longest time, I used to not think much about music in that decade, but then I discovered much greater bands/songs from then and my mind changed :)

The 80's. So much great music came out of that decade. (People from the 60's are rolling their eyes right about now!)

Good choice :) Haha, yes probably about the eye rolling thing. I do know that my mom really loves classic rock (60's and 70's stuff that is or like you know psychadelic rock or whatever it is) but she on the other hand pretty much despises 80's music.. So you might be on to something there!

I do love 90's songs as well 2000's but whenever Im listening to those old songs including the 90'. You know the feeling that the way the music beats it feels like the song I am listening with had a part on my past life, and there are things flashes back that I know I never done but it seems familiar. "REINCARNATION" seems like that.
