So what is your favourite decade, music wise?

So tell me, SF-O, which musical decade is the one that floats your boat? Examples of music you like would be handy, as well.

For me, it'd probably be the 80's, because the music was pretty good, and the music videos were awesome.

Every time I see this video, I want to run out and learn sign language.

One of my sisters, Lisa, used to look a lot like the guy singing this song.

Sticking to just the later 20th century, I'll probably say 80s music. Not all of it is good, but I enjoy the overdose of synth beats and drumlines :D

I'd have to go with the 1990's.

1960's and 70's, both decades had such great music. Too bad I can't say the same for today.

Late 90s, early 2000s mostly. Some late 80s to early 90s (<3 Barenaked Ladies) but not a whole lot.

The 1980s was my favorite decade for music. Futuristic and electronic, very nice.

Examples: The Touch (Stan Bush), The Power of Love (Huey Lewis), Nothing's Gonna Stand in Our Way (Spectre General), Safety Dance (Men Without Hats), Ghostbusters (Ray Parker Jr.).
