I was born in 1999...so I don't think I can answer that question. :P I think the overall quality of pop music went downhill in the Late 90s...

Cheer up, there's quality music in every year if you look hard enough!

I was born in '80, and I can remember music from 1981 and on. These are my favorite years for music:

1982
1983
1984

1986

Frankly, all of my favorite years for music in my lifetime were in the 2000s and early 2010s (anything pre-2012). So it's rather self-explanatory if you know about my interests for a long time.

5. 1996

What do you think are the best years for music since you were born.

I would say the 70s and earlier...... In the 80s digital started ruining the sound,etc........

1966 and 1964.

Definitely nothing from the past 25 years.

Can I combine 2009 and 2010 into one big year and call it the best? It was phenomenal.

2011 was really fun too, but for different reasons, so I wouldn't combine it with 2009/2010.

Between 2000 (radio jingle from the Philippines that I liked, but which I don't remember well) and 2013 (when rock music died in the mainstream and pop music started sounding bland. )

Well, my sweet spot is between 1964 and 1987.  Ranking them in order of preference:

    1974
    1973
    1971
    1967
    1972
    1975
    1964
    1976
    1970
    1969
    1979
    1965
    1966
    1977
    1978
    1968
    1981
    1983
    1980
    1984
    1982
    1985
    1986
    1987

I already listed my top 5 years for music since I was born, but here's how I'd rank everything else:

25. 2015
26. 2008

2009, 2010, and 2014. (no particular order) I criticized 2015 for awhile but looking back now the 2nd half of that year wasn't bad at all. It was a good stretch.

1997-2005, the starter package.

Born in 1985, but I wasn't very pop culture aware before around 1995, so that's where I'll start.

I really like the second half of 2017 for music.  I would also put 2018 so far up there with the electropop era.

80's and certain 90's years.

1995
1997
1999
2002-2005
2008
2012-2014
2016

Between 2004 and 2012 - mostly for rock and pop punk music.

1982-1983
1991-1992
1995-1996

Best musical eras of my lifetime.

For me it is the music of the 1960s and up to 1975, those years hold treasured memories for me.

1989-1992

You can work out to a lot of the dance music released in the Bush 41 days.

For me It's difficult since I enjoyed the 00s music and some late 90s stuff

2002
2004
2003
2000
1999
2001
2005
2006
2007
2008

1989-1993

1988-1991.  The synths weren't so heavy anymore, it had a light and airy feel.  Before grunge came along full force.

I'll pick a few. Off the top of my head I'll go with 1995, 1997 - 1999, 2002 - 2005, 2010, 2016.

2001 > 2015 > 2002 > 2013 > 1997 > 2018 > 2007 > 2004 > 2003 > 1999 > 2011 > 2012 > 1998 > 2006 > 2017 > 2008 > 2000 > 2010 > 2005 > 2009 > 2014 > 2016

Or something like that

The mid-2010s were so hit and miss

2001 > 2015 > 2002 > 2013 > 1997 > 2018 > 2007 > 2004 > 2003 > 1999 > 2011 > 2012 > 1998 > 2006 > 2017 > 2008 > 2000 > 2010 > 2005 > 2009 > 2014 > 2016

If there's one thing we can agree on, it's that 2018 was a really decent year for music. It was a big year for some fresh faces along with some unique huge hits.

If there's one thing we can agree on, it's that 2018 was a really decent year for music. It was a big year for some fresh faces along with some unique huge hits.
The last few months of 2018 (along with the first two months of 2019) were fairly mediocre sadly enough, but I consider the February to July stretch as a truly stunning period of releases and hits and one of my favorite periods in the 2010s. Highlights of the year include "Never Be the Same", "All the Stars", "In My Blood", "Chun Li", "Stir Fry", "Nice for What", "Sicko Mode", "No Tears Left to Cry", "One Kiss" and so on.

From most favourite to least:

1. 1999

I haven't ranked 2019, as it's still too early to judge what the music scene of this year is like.

1959 to 1978 were my favorite years for music.
1979-1990 is my 2nd choice
Nothing after 1990.
