There are members here very into music, particularly from past decades, so I thought maybe a dedicated thread would be a good idea.
I've lived within 6 decades of music.
My favourite is the 1970s and I think the best (debatable of course).
I've realised since my diagnosis that for 20 years (70s and 80s) music was my 'special interest'.
I've not had such an avid interest since the 90s and in fact, I find the associations with music mostly too painful to be able to listen.
Music is a sure trigger to memories for me and often the associated pain.
So, why the 70s?
Tamla Motown, Soul, Disco, Reggae, Punk, Glam Rock, New Wave....
Fleetwood Mac, Abba, Elton John, Bowie, Iggy Pop, Talking Heads, Pink Flloyd, Velvet Underground, Gary Numan, B52s...
What are your favourite eras and what do you consider the (debatable) 'best' ?
Please feel free to talk about anything music related here including classical.

So do you like 80s music as well as 70s? Or was the interest just also in the 80s?
I love 80s music.
Okie.
…Yknow..
There’s a Frozen 2 song that is inspired by 80s music (according to people. I can’t say from my own knowledge), it’s called ‘Lost in the Woods’..
(Totally me not wanting you to listen to it so I can begin my secret operation: get Debbie to watch Frozen films one day…)
