Ahh Linda Lusardi …. Still would , I’m in 70s but 80s music camp , I’ve had it with Xmas music but this song is wasted as a Xmas song … Brilliant band and Trevor Horn is 2nd to no one as a producer
The best decade is the current one. There are many ills in the world but there always has been and yes, politically things are terrible but when you look past all of that we’ve never had it so good.
Previous decades seem better for music, films etc because time has filtered out much of the rubbish. It’s all still there with the added bonus of some good modern stuff.
Thanks for the memories previous decades but I’m glad time machines don’t exist.
Actually, I agree with Richard.
There are things I miss from the past, but the advent of the public internet revolutionised my life, ditto the advent of the smart phone so I don’t even need a home computer or laptop to access it.
I can watch literally every race on my phone and there have been similar advances in virtually every walk of life you can think of.
The Pandemic and the War in Ukraine have cast a huge shadow over the decade we are now in, and climate change is a huge worry, but if we can get free of the first two and make serious concerted global attempts to mitigate the third, there is still plenty to look forward to.

I won’t be holding my breath.
Anyone here veterans of ban the bomb marches?
I was also in Grosvenor Square when the mounted rozzers charged us.
We really thought we could change the World.
Peace and Love.
I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains
I've walked and I crawled on six crooked highwaysHow any one can say a decade where Mrs T was in charge for the full 10 years is beyond me.
I was a teenager back then in the mid to late but preferred the 60s/70s music. I would be listening to The Beatles, The Who, Bat Out of Hell, Stairway to Heaven. Not that I minded the 80s stuff.
Good point homer..
The 80’s for me were great or at least the mid 80’s onwards
I was born in 1980 so all my first memory’s. Family all together and believing in father Christmas outweighed anything that bitch could throw at the national.Blackbeard to conquer the World
Some will undoubtedly love it, but you may well have lost the Ginger vote if he sneaks back.
It’s the sixties and eighties for me.
With no PlayStations or technology etc, as a young kid of 6,7,8 playing out in the road with other kids we became so streetwise that these skills became very useful as we grew older, something the ‘modern’ young child cannot replace.
It was my world without boundaries.In the eighties, it captured my late teens and twenty’s, it was my world again without many boundary’s also.
While there were many downs still growing up, there were far more highlights that you never forget.I’m really glad I grew up the era I did.
“the Ginger vote”
Ginger preferred the year the poll gave you the option to change your vote
every time someone posted something he changed his vote, think it was the year TAPK got done by bob rolfe
poorly Shirly was late for her walk the other day as ginger was taking too long in getting ready, deciding which socks were the value for the walk they were doing
He went with the insulated, waterproof, thermal pair in the end
Shirly was happy as she has a smelly sock fetish…

“I’m really glad I grew up the era I did.”
As Chezza is still in the process of growing up, he’s a bit torn really.
– The 60s had Patrick Troughton as Doctor Who
– The 70s had a full-size Distance post at Beverley racecourse
– The 80s had Chezza’s ex-gf Sonia (and she, as well as obviously having appalling taste in men – ie Chezza – was a right “sort”)
– The 90s had The Lahore Kebab House in East London
– The 00s had Chezza’s ex-gf Sarah who, if it’s possible, was even worse than Sonia
– The 10s had Chezza’s glorious return to TRF
– And who knows that the roaring 20s may still hold?

It's the "Millwall FC" of Point broadcasts: "No One Likes Us - We Don't Care"There you have it Ian, the current decade has possibilities. That’s something that no previous decade can offer. I’m sticking with the current one, until it’s no longer the current one when my answer will be the current one.
Good reasons, Richard.
It’s a currents and reasons thing, really, and who are we to argue with dried fruit?
I’ll fetch me coat.

Is this the Scouse pop star Sonia
Sonia’s accent was certainly a lot more Eastenders than Scouse.
