kinda agree with your list Charicature. here's another one :

1950s: Little Richard - Tutti frutti
1960s: The Rolling Stones - Satisfaction
1970s: Sex Pistols - God Save The Queen
1980s: Mickael Jackson - Thriller
1990s: Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana


^ I would have that. No joke. The only one I didn't think of was Thriller, but I guess that works out better than "Sweet Child O' Mine"...

The 2000's choice was really weird though Think I wouldn't say Someday symbolized the 2000's at all. (Great song, and I know you like the Strokes, but I don't think it'd work).

2000's: White Stripes - Seven Nation Army or Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Maps


I would also have to agree with Cartoken's 50s-90s choices, but the 2000s are a tough bunch. Can't decide.

I think the 2000s marked a time when there was NO definitive. The age of pluralism at it's best. Indie rock and all that shit. I kinda miss the definitive days (not that I lived through most of them), but then again where would we be if all the bands sounded the same and were all definitive.

60's: A Change is Gonna Come
70's: "Heroes"
80's: Blue Monday
90's: Common People
00's: Losing My Edge (not the best, but I think if any song defined music the best, it would be this one)
10's: California

The songs I consider to best define the decade
