Each decade of the 20th century had at least one signature...
The 1960s has that hippie era.
The 1970s had disco. Understandable; from 1970 to 1976 there's precious little that has any soul to it...
The early 1980s had new wave, though anything after 1984 is forgettable...
The 1990s... well, I can only think of that Spin Doctors song and then that godawful Barbie Girl song to define that decade with... a shame as Stakka Bo and the Shamen did a better job at defining *something*...

The 2000s seems to be fairly devoid of anything too.

:shrug:

1. It will have to be a rap tune, probably.
It has really come into it's own.

2. "Burn Hollywood Burn"? Or the one where MC Hammer is lambasted for selling out...
Which makes sense; once Hammer got grilled like the sandwich I ate for lunch, it's amazing how many people came out to hawk cheap soda pop too... right Flava? :evilgrin:


Worse, assuming we get to old age and live in an old folx home, imagine all us geezers listening to "911 is a Joke"... :rofl:

3. I think the 90s smelled like teen spirit
