    C. 13, 7 Again, what the hell happened in the 80's? This was the prime of my life! The only saving grace was cheap beer and independent record stores where I spend many of my weekends. For those that haven't watch the movie High Fidelity. One of the greatest movie scenes is when John Cusack says..Hey, want to see me sell an album? He puts on a song called Dry the Rain by The Beta Band. Everyone in the store starts listening and asking who is this? Great scene and also a great song.
    D. 1 (obviously), 11

    1960s 1, 3 (It always was going to come down to this. Are you “Beatles” or “Rolling Stones”? Who knew in high school that we’d still be debating this one many years later?

    1970s 9, 3 (A battle for Glam rock supremacy. No one did more for Spandex than Bowie and Mercury).

    1980s 9, 3 (Both bands are still big ticket draws on the concert circuit).

    1990s 1, 7 (Finals should be a showdown between a genuine trailblazer and it’s commercially more successful offspring).
