You're missing off hiphop from the late 80s and the whole house/dance/rave scene from the early 90s, think i'm torn between 70s and 80s however.

50's!! No doubt about it rock n roll is the best music genre ever!! Pretty much all i listen to these days is Elvis, Chuck Berry, Eddie Cochran, Gene Vincent, all the oldies and the hundreds of new bands since that play rock n roll, rockabilly, blues, country.... I was clearly born in the wrong era.. i shouldve been alive in the 50's with James Dean and Marilyn Monroe, and boys with quiffs and jukeboxes and jiving and beautiful cars!!!
You can still find all this today but its far and few between :(

Vote 50's!!!!!!

DEFINATELY the 90's! The decade that rave was born!!!
Also had all the decent 90's nu-metal and rap coming out later on.

this decade by miles. aside from the better bands (in my opinion) we've had the digital revolution of high capacity MP3 players, online music stores, online zines that have bought previous inaccessible genres into the mainstream. MySpace and other sites allow us to 'try before we buy' for even the most obscure of artists. obviously it's a shame that this has also seen most phsyical music retailers go out of business.

Don't most people like the music from their young or teen years? So for most it's a question of when were you born?

If hair metal came in the 60's it would be no contest, i would say a dead heat between the 60's and 80's - Journey saved the 80's.

I prefer the 80s, but being a 90s child, some of the hits from the 90s are classics.

Well it was the late 80's really.

But the 90's was definately the edecade for dance music so I'll have to agree.
