Maybe share why it's your favorite? The 2000's certainly weren't bad, but they're far from my favorite. I guess we lack the hindsight to look back and distinguish its uniqueness and trends. Maybe in 20 more years.

To me, social trends and all that nonsense doesn't really matter, so saying the 60's etc. is the greatest decade for music and festivals is pretty irrelevant, because I can listen to the music now, and watch the great films.

However, they didn't have anything that came after it, so you are basically limiting yourself in terms of how much enjoyment you can have as an individual in search of a nostalgic fantasy, that probably wouldn't live up to your imagination had you lived through it.

I think the point is to only take into account what each decade gave us, not how life is like in that decade in terms of the entire history of man.

I think the 90's are my favourite. I was young and had good times with my family, excellent cartoons and fallout/age of empires.

Not to be mean I can't see how 80's was that great, what was popular was simply horrible e.g. Jacko and Hair Metal. I thouhgt the beginning of the 80's OK because music but it was from the fact that was what happening in the 70's was still influential.

I'm totally divided on this. I think I would want my weekdays and weekends to be split. I would work in the 2000's and party on the weekends in the 1970's. Could you imagine being able to go to CBGBs or a Disco in NYC or see the Allman Brothers or Genesis or Led Zeppelin in concert?

I'm gonna take a guess and venture that you don't really like Thrash/Punk/New Wave? All three genres were at their alltime creative high in the 80's. Not much of a jacko/hair metal fan myself but yes they were equally as abundant as the genres i've mentioned. I could take a pass on led zeppelin and the Almann Bros. I would have liked to have seen Genesis in the Gabriel era.

Its all subjective and i don't take offense to your assessment. I lived the 80's and i loved it.

It would be really cool to visit other decades like the 1980s and the 1960s or even the 1700s but I like this one most because I would miss my pc and Sansa and stuff so I wouldnt want to live in any of those decades. and I just know I wouldnt like the music. =/
