Again I know musical taste is personal, and is often affected by one's age too, when it comes to what is your favourite decade etc - but none the less I rather liked the 1980s and would argue against the idea that it was the worst decade for music. I thought there was lots of great music about then of all varieties. Also come on! George Michael was the worst singer about in the 1980s!!! Again I'm not a massive fan and I do think some of his more recent stuff like some tracks on the Symphonica album drag on a bit - but even though not to everyone's taste his singles from the Wham period and his early 1980s and 1990s solo singles and albums show vocally that he was a long way from being the worst singer around. And importantly he could do it live too. Just look out the Youtube clips of him singing "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me" or "Somebody To Love" to see he could hit every note. I've seen bands in my time who are let down by poor live vocals where they just couldn't even keep in tune.
