00's- I thought it would be the darkness, but they kinda went flat, so..........coldplay? they did cause the whole keane thing

Tears for Fears was good, but I don't think they were that influential.

50's - Muddy Waters for all the blues
60's - The Beatles of course!
70's - Rolling stones (is that wrong) or Sex Pistols
80's - terrible decade - I have no idea
90's - Oasis or the verve
00's - Libertines, Patrick Wolf and Artic Monkeys (and all the others like killers, bloc party)
