It's official! The 1960s is the greatest decade for music in history! I'm not just some biased hippie either - I was born in 1987 long after the 1960s were over.
What's great is all the diversity. I mean the #1 song in 1960 was this:
Theme From a Summer Place ~Percy Faith
That same decade you had this:
Light My Fire ~The Doors
and this:
White Rabbit ~Jefferson Airplane
Of course it wasn't all psychedelic rock, regular rock, and instrumentals. They had other stuff, too. Rolling Stone Magazine calls this the greatest song ever written:
Like a Rolling Stone ~Bob Dylan
I haven't even mentioned the most famous band of all-time yet, The Beatles.

I'm not very good at sorting things out by decades. I thought this was a mid-1950s song that didn't suck. Turns out it's not (not even close!) and it's a 1960s song. Whether or not it makes my iPod is TBD. Thoughts?

Kind of a drag when your baby says good-bye, Kind of a drag when if you laugh you wanna cry.
Oh, girl, (LISTEN TO ME WHEN I'M SPEAKIN', 'CAUSE YOU KNOW THE WORDS I'M MAKIN') Even though you made me feel blue, (AND I KNOW THAT YOU'VE BEEN CHEATIN', OH, I HOPE THAT WE'LL BE MEETIN'.)

1969 - Undun - The Guess Who
Spoiler:
She's come undun She didn't know what she was headed for And when I found what she was headed for It was too late
She's come undun She found a mountain that was far too high And when she found out she couldn't fly It was too late
It's too late She's gone too far She's lost the sun
She's come undun She wanted truth but all she got was lies Came the time to realize And it was too late
She's come undun She didn't know what she was headed for And when I found what she was headed for Mama, it was too late
It's too late She's gone too far She's lost the sun She's come undun
Too many mountains, and not enough stairs to climb Too many churches and not enough truth Too many people and not enough eyes to see Too many lives to lead and not enough time
It's too late She's gone too far She's lost the sun
She's come undun Doe-doe-doe-doe-doe doe un doe-doe-doe un doe-doe-doe Doe doe-doe-doe-doe un doe-doe-doe doe-doe-doe Doe doe-doe-doe doe doe-doe-doe doe doe
