Which decade has better music?

[markyyy]

I think more often than not, your answer to this will depend on the decade you "grew up" in. By that I mean when you matured as a person. Obviously as a rule, kids have little interest in music. Once you reach the age where you actually process music, you develop an interest in what is currently being played in whatever media you are surrounded by. Thus you develop an attachment to that period. In my case that would be the 60's, a decade never to be equaled as far as influence on my musical taste. Those that have a sincere interest will eventually branch out in an effort to discover what they have missed. There is not any genre that doesn't captivate me at this point in my life. But I do reserve the right to qualify that statement with "some stuff just sucks".:wink:

I'm an exception to this. 15 and loving the 70s/80s. But I understand what you're saying. It's easier for kids to turn on the radio and listen to the first catchy song they hear on the radio, or just listen to what their friends are listening to, than going back a decade or three.

I think it also depends on how you were raised. If your parents were big on music, and you grow up in a household with traces of different decades all around you, you're bound to be influenced by it. At least I think so..

but I'd be an exception to that, too. :biggrin:
