Every year in the decade brought something incredible  but if you had to choose just ONE single year not 2 or 3 to live in musically forever, which one is it?

 

A lot of critics point to 1984 because of songs like Purple Rain, Born in the U.S.A. and Like a Virgin all coming out at once. Then you got 1982 that gave us the birth of synth pop and 1987 was an absolute moster for hard rock and hair metal.

Cast your vote in the poll and then comment below to defend your choice!! What albums or memories mad that specific year from the the 80s the absolute best for you?

I voted for 1983. You just can't beat the year where David Bowie released Let's Dance, Eurythmics Sweet Dreams, The Police Every Breath You Take, Journey with Seperate Ways and so many more. In my opinion it was the peak of the 80s decade.

1984 for me. Like a Virgin came out that year. Love the album.
