Which do you think was the best and worst decade for music in your country and why?

For the best i am not sure but the worst 2000s certainly (one dominant genre with little alternative and media space for others)

Music started to downgrade during 1990s and worsened during 2000s.

 

Ex-Yu pop-rock scene was amazing! 

 

I reckon, it is the same case worldwide. Even in NZ, music peaked during late 1970s and in 1980s. Two words - Flying Nun :bowdown: 

Or at least people with similar taste would say so. I'd say, 60s and end of 70s-first half of 80s are definitely two peaks. Over the last few year I've been listening to a very few artists/song from new millennium.

90s had at least some variety before Grand took over :lol:

At least.

 

All the turbo folk fuzz and Grand started in the 1990s. Not sure about you but I also remember City Records in the early 2000s. My friend was listening their music. Even they were giving me headaches. I guess you can remember some bands like Funky G :zip:

    • One has already been approved under the new rules. 
    • There is a transgender volleyball player here in Brazil; there was even a recent controversy (this year) when a city banned her from playing in a certain competition, which ended up in court, ultimately in her favor.   But the situation is much simpler than that; the reason for this decision is because of the two female boxers who won at Paris 2024 (who apparently are not transgender).

    • there were rumors about it for quite a while, but as I wrote, it was never confirmed so, it might well be just some haters throwing out some shit on her 🤷
    • Where did you get that?   I'm not sure I would have considered her to have dissapeared from out of nowhere, at least since after Tokyo... she did win medals at the next two World Championships. I think it's just recently, she's been struggling with injury which is why she's completely out of form... 
    • Even though I'm not the biggest fan of her, always sucks to see a career ending through injury and not on your own terms 
    • This is going to have an effect on very likely 0 athletes, possibly 1 or 2 we don't really know about yet. It's really mostly the cheapest possible way for them to make a sort of political statement, without having any significant backlash since it won't really affect anyone at the top level of international sports.   Edit: worded a bit wrong, I was thrown off by everywhere 'trans women' being mentioned as the target of this. Of course there is also the somewhat larger category of DSD and the likes, which will certainly affect a few athletes - unfortunately they are often thrown under the bus or mentioned as 'not really women anyway' or something like that, despite, you know, being.
    • Mary Rand has died aged 86. The first British woman to win a Gold in track and field at the 1964 Tokyo Games (where she also took home a further two medals in the Women’s 4x100m relay and Pentathlon).
    • Athing Mu competed in the USA trials in 2024 and 2025 post the 2023 rule changes. She also won Gold in 2022 and Bronze in 2023.    Jelimo the jury is out. She doesn’t look male like the other two do.   
    • People focus on trans people because it's easier to pinpoint the affected athletes. Meanwhile it's the athletes with (suspected) DSDs that will have tougher time to convince the authorities and the public opinion that they belong to women's sports.
