And like BB_Eye said, the poo always existed. People just forget it because only the good acts really get remembered, so people have a rose tinted view of the past.

Right now it's pants I'll grant you because a lot of the music that was interesting for the past twenty years has peaked or gone out altogether and whereas before it was replaced, say from hair rock to grunge, now all that's come in is the reality stuff.

I guess I meant the stuff that gets into the charts but there is good music out there somewhere, I'm sure. Take the point about rose-tinted view, yeah.

definitely not the 90s

Im listening to a lot of 80s electro pop lately so I'm gonna go with the 80s. Early 80's mostly.

Marc 10-03-2012 03:56 PM

70s, 60s, 90s, 80s in that order.

Roy Mars III 10-03-2012 03:58 PM

90s

Shaun 10-03-2012 06:38 PM

60s > 70s > 80s > 00s > 50s > 90s

Every genre has amazing music, some more amazing than others, but it would be impossible to pinpoint a 'best decade'.

Me. I Am Salman 10-03-2012 07:18 PM

Except for 2009, the 00s were great

I like to listen to all decades of music, however although I do like the current music I find I prefer to listen to the 60s and 80s.

I have made it my aim to have loads of CDs of artists from the 50s up to the present,I am getting there and love all the compilation CDs too but I like reading about the singers/groups too.

I know this isn't the question asked in the thread, but I think it's better to judge what was outstandingly bad about each decade musically because every decade has had some incredible highs and nostalgia will always be the deciding factor in what people choose as the best. But people are nowhere near as biased when it comes to pointing out crap music.

Jesus. 10-03-2012 09:32 PM

60's.

Motown
Beatles
Elvis
Stones
Dylan
Cash

It's not even a fair competition.

Me. I Am Salman 10-03-2012 10:29 PM

50s 60s 70s 80s music is boring

Me. I Am Salman 10-03-2012 10:29 PM

bring on the pack of wolves

joeysteele 10-03-2012 11:10 PM

I think all decades have had good and bad music really, but for me I like the more melodic and singalong music from the 60s, from what I ahve heard the 70s seemed to be an experimental time as to music with so much going on and the 80s were a progression of the best of that era.
The 90s and the present have had really strong music and again good and bad, the late 90s though seemed to herald the 'engineered' hit system where records entered the charts at the top end then fell rapidly within a week or 2 later.

In the main I would say the earlier decades had far better singers, who really had to be able to sing to be successful and hold their audiences whereas now we have the glitzy show/wild dance effects centred around each performance.

early 2000s, 90s, 80s was all good

Bollo 11-03-2012 12:28 AM

I'd say every decade has elements of greatness in terms of music, so for me it is impossible to choose

Me. I Am Salman 11-03-2012 09:37 PM

The 10's are not bad so far tbh.
Except for the first 7 months of 2010, that is.

lostalex 11-03-2012 10:02 PM

90's

because grunge was amazing. Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Stone Temple Pilots, Green Day, Nine Inch Nails, Garbage, Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan, Sheryl Crow, Bjork.

The 90's were Amazing.
