Subject: Favorite popular song from each decade

Written By: HeyJealousy on 03/21/17 at 4:33 pm

I'll start with mine:

1960s (Zombies - Time Of The Season)
1970s (Jackson Browne - Running On Empty)
1980s (Billy Idol - Eyes Without A Face)
1990s (Gin Blossoms - Follow You Down)
2000s (Uncle Kracker - Drift Away)
2010s (Foster The People - Pumped Up Kicks)

I could create a separate thread that narrows it down by year if you want me to, but that'd be tougher for some.

I won't say my absolute favorite, because I don't have one, but I'll say one of my favorites from each decade. Does no one else here listen to a lot of pre 1960s music?

1930s: Begin the Beguine - Artie Shaw
1940s: Sweet Lorraine - Nat King Cole
1950s: Beyond the Sea - Bobby Darin
1960s: My Favorite Things - John Coltrane
1970s: Mr. Blue Sky - Electric Light Orchestra
1980s: Overjoyed - Stevie Wonder
1990s: Ex-Factor - Lauryn Hill
2000s: Fallin' - Alicia Keys
2010s: Pink + White - Frank Ocean


You guys have great choices, Killing Me Softly With His Sing by The Fugees is my personal favorite from NewYorkRaven and Time of the Season by The Zombies from HeyJealousy.
