Favorite Decade for Music

Gotta say the 80s....

I'd be one of those that would need to cite 1976 to 1986 as my favourite date range. I liked the mix of light rock, hard rock, pop, urban and dance tracks through that period.

Oh I'd disagree. At the beginning, it seemed like a continuation of the late 90s, but as the decade moved on, I found that there was some REALLY great music in the 2000s, and it became its own.

For me, the 2000s was the first decade whereby FM radio was NOT the way I was exposed to new music. Instead, my Swedish friend Hannah got me following the Toplistann chart. I was exposed to more European and lesser known American acts (like Anastacia for example). I loved Evanesence, September, Junior Senior, Lily Allen, Sarah Barelleis, Daniel and Natasha Beddingfield, Coldplay, Shakira, Rufus Wainwright, ... so many.

1970s for me. Very diverse decade with Top40 playing Pop, Rock, Country, R&B... I also like the country genre from that decade (George Jones, Ronnie Milsap, Tammy Wynette, Statler Brothers). My all time favorite artist is Elvis and I actually prefer the material he was releasing in the 70s the best out of his career.
