**Humblewretch** · 07-13-2012 03:49 PM

I wish I was born in the 70's that was a cool era so were the 80's those would be the two decades I would like to have been born in.

Even if this is true, there's no mistaking the amazing music of th 50s that still has an impact on millions today.

Only the good stuff is memorable. There were just as many hacks back then as there are now. The farther into the past you get, the less of the crap music people remember.

Yes, this is true. It's true that there where just as many crap musicians back then as there are today. But that's where the similaritys end. There arn't as many great musicians these days. When you compare hits of today, to the hits 60 (more or less) years ago, there is no question.

There's still good music being made. It just drowns in the aforementioned crap (and is released very rarely). Give it 50 years, and the music of the '00s will have been condensed down to nothing but talent.

I sure hope so, right now it's not showing much promise.

I would always be born in this decade.It is a time were people who are weird,and smart are accepeted.Where being a nerd is cool.Honsetly,if I was born into any other decade,I would probably have killed myself by now,no joke.

Also,it is a time where women and girls can amount to something.Yes,you could say there were other decades you could do this,but none some much a now.Finally,women are getting almlst the same amount of pay in the workplace,and are escalating to higher job opportunities.

My favorite decade was the 1990's. I grew up in it for the majority of my childhood.
So I experienced my favorite decade already.
Went to theme parks always every week, the 1996 summer Olympic games in america, the reign of my home basketball team: Chicago Bulls, my crazy elementary school.... so many memories.

**Hakoshi** · 07-14-2012 09:26 PM

I think I'm ok with the time I was born.

so, not much to change xD

**darkrider21** · 07-16-2012 07:21 PM

during the 60s defantley

**MariannaB** · 07-16-2012 11:10 PM

I was born in the 90's, and I love it. I don't think I could enjoy being born in any other generation. I don't really get any of the other ones.

Oh well.

1995 is the best year and I'm proud that it was the year I was born.

1992 is better! you know why? cuz thats when i was born.
and i was born at the same time as my car.

Boom! there she is!
Both me and her be from 92. ergo, 1992 is best! :P

Well I could try and argue why 1995 is better but instead all I will say is:

It is awesome that you and your car are from the same year

**elisaelisa** · 07-17-2012 04:36 AM

I like to live in a time we have now. In a way we do have a chance to enjoy all the previous decades. It is accepted and cool to wear clothes of any decade to suit ur personal style.

And we can enjoy ALL the music made on all these decades!!! I think that really is something.
I wouldnt have mind to have born ten years earlier than i did, just to experience 80's as teenager/adult rather than a lil kid.
A bit too little i was then to take it all in.

In that situation I would say there totally is a special connection. I can only hope my yellow Porsche and I will have a similar bond when I have enough money to buy her in a million years

One of my trucks also happens to be the same vintage as myself... possibly one reason I've kept it around. One day I'll fix up the old beast... she isnt much to look at right now (more rusty now too that pic is probably 5yrs old from my last house)...

'78

And whats up with you btw... changed your name and most of your sig. Early life crisis? lol j/k

people who don't know cars would say she's not much to look at. Me on the other hand, i see a beautiful beast with the potential to become even more of a beast!

**Sc0tty** · 07-22-2012 05:12 PM

I'm happy enough being from the 90's myself

**Allyria** · 07-23-2012 01:05 PM

You have to dig deep for good music of today, just saying haha. But I like the 80s. It was more wild. I feel like there are more groups that happened then that I could fit in with more. And everything wasn't yet all about paper. You could walk in and get a job at a fast food place lol. No debt. Airplanes gave you real food XD
