Well the 80's were the worst decade for music I can hear. Im sure the Black Plauge years in europe turned out some ****ty tunes, but the 80's was a decade full of novelty. Forgive me if I glance over that entire abboration in taste.

Secondly, I agree with REM being bigger, I think U2 was bigger as well, and im sure there was another one im forgetting.
