1994 because that's the year I graduated high school and it's hard to deny the feelings you have for music at that stage in life.
And I mean, just look at this:

Änglagård - Epilog
Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works Volume II
Autechre - Amber
Beastie Boys - Ill Communication
Built to Spill - There's Nothing Wrong With Love
Drive Like Jehu - Yank Crime
Failure - Magnified
Green Day - Dookie
Helmet - Betty
Jawbox - For Your Own Special Sweetheart
Kyuss - Welcome to Sky Valley
Marilyn Manson - Portrait of an American Family
Melvins - Stoner Witch
Nailbomb - Point Blank
Nas - Illmatic
Nine Inch Nails - The Downward Spiral
Nirvana - MTV Unplugged in New York
NOFX - Punk in Drublic
Orbital - Snivilisation
Pantera - Far Beyond Driven
Pavement - Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain
Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth - The Main Ingredient
Pigface - Notes From Thee Underground
Polvo - Celebrate the New Dark Age
Psychic TV - Electric Newspaper Issue One
Refused - This Just Might Be... The Truth
Rodan - Rusty
Sebadoh - Bakesale
Shellac - At Action Park
The Smashing Pumpkins - Pisces Iscariot
Sonic Youth - Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star
Stone Temple Pilots - Purple
Sunny Day Real Estate - Diary
Three Mile Pilot - The Chief Assassin to the Sinister
UGK - Super Tight...
Underworld - Dubnobasswithmyheadman
Unwound - New Plastic Ideas
Veruca Salt - American Thighs
Ween - Chocolate and Cheese
Weezer - Blue Album

And I've left out a lot that others probably consider great/essential. Even a given year in the 60s or 70s wouldn't have as many in the list.

Usually if you have a set of numbers you list them in numerical order from lowest to highest, that's if you have no particular preference.* I'm guessing like 1977 more than 1976 cause it shows up after 2013, more than four decades later. You can enumerate them no problem with the "Ordered list" function and show which year more than the other.** You don't give much information as to why you like any of those years. There are no bands, albums, nor mile-stones in music history for why you picked those particular years. How do you ranked them? ... and why?

*exhibit a:
  • 1967
  • 1976
  • 1977
  • 1987
  • 1991
  • 2013
  • 2015

**exhibit b:
  1. 1967
  2. 1977
  3. 1987
  4. 2013
  5. 1976
  6. 2015
  7. 1991

2013 easily. Major Lazer, Justin Timberlake, Studio Killers, Colette Carr, Ellie Goulding, Icona Pop, Selena Gomez, Lorde, Arcade Fire, M.I.A, and Lady Gaga did it for me. Awesome year in pop/electronic.

Was also a great year for K-Pop and Eurovision. So much nostalgia for 2013.
