For me, it's got to be the 80s.
Coincided with me being a teenager so very impressionable!

(Inspired by listening to some early Madonna)
Talk to me about your favourite decade!

It's definitely the 80s for me.

Fantastic songs, movie soundtracks, fashion and actual Christmas No.1 songs that were upbeat!

Just read that Bonnie Tyler has died.
Such an 80s icon!

And Total Eclipse of the Heart is one of the greatest 80s bangers.

80s for sure!
The clothes, hairstyles, music, films, and overblown overstatedness of everything!

Was a teenager then, with a lot of freedom.

1973 was peak glam rock for me, and also really enjoyed early 80s. After around 1985, I lost interest. Britpop passed me by.
