What are your favorite songs by Decade.

And to be fair, don't go back in time. Only list shit you actually listened to during those decades and bumped frequently during those decades.

And don't be a little bitch by listing 2 or 3 songs. ONE SONG. PER DECADE. :MARIS61:

1980s: POUR SOME SUGAR ON ME


1990s: 21 JUMPSTREET BY THE DOG POUND


2000s: BETTER TOGETHER BY JACK JOHNSON


2010s: if I Lose Myself by alesso/one republic

Slightly different twist, and I'm sure I'm missing some:

Birth-1990: Not much. Dad only played country and Western on the radio, and Mom only played Oldies in the car. I have this vivid memory of Elizabeth Shue in the beginning of Adventures in Babysitting singing "He walked up to me and he asked me if I wanted to dance..."
1990-1995: Got the Phantom of the Opera as my first CD as a gift, but Bryan Adams' Summer of 69 got worn out.
1996-2000: Didn't get to listen to much music at the Academy, but I played then (and still do) play Relient K's "For the Moments I Feel Faint"
2001-2006: Submarine time. Lots of Eminem and a band called Superchick. But the Killers' Mr. Brightside has been near the top of the lists to this day.
2007-2011: "Lighters", Eminem, 5'9" and Bruno Mars.
2012-2015: AFG time...listened to Handel's Messiah and Les Mis a bunch, but...Nicki Minaj's "Super Bass"
Present Day adds: "Build Your Kingdom Here", Rend Collective Project
 
Since we're limiting this to when we "listened to it", I can't do 60's (georgia on my mind) or 70's (if you could read my mind). If you don't like my variations of a 'decade', blame BFW.

So...1980-85:

1985-95:

1995-2005:

2005-present day:

This should've been "post your favorite N songs" or something. This was too confining.
 
I was just trying to think of all the great songs in the 60s and there were so many that I really can't pick just one.
Run Around Sue;
I Want to Hold Your Hand;
Oh Pretty Woman;
White Rabbit;
Turn!Turn!Turn!;
California Dreamin';
Wild Thing;
My Boyfriend's Back;
Good Vibrations;
Ode to Billy Joe;
(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction;
Brown Eyed Girl;
House of the Rising Sun;
Light My Fire;
(Sittin' on) The Dock of the Bay;
Stand By Me;
The Twist;
Hey Jude;
more;

The 70s has more than I can list here.

When you say Jerry Lee, do you mean Jerry Lee Lewis?

I first saw Elvis on the Ed Sullivan show which was Elvis' first national exposure.

The Big Bopper, Chantilly Lace;
Buddy Holly, my God, you're gonna pull out some of the great oldies;
Chuck Berry, Johnny B. Good;
The Beatles, too many songs to single one out but I want to hold your hand and I saw her standing there;
Dylan is one of the greatest ever;
The Doors, Light My Fire;
'Creedance Clearwater Revival, Susie Q and Run Through the Jungle;
Fleetwood Mac, Go Your Own Way;
Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young.
So many more but my wife is calling me.
