IMO 70s rock blows the 60s out of the water...bands such as
AC/DC
Sabbath
Led Zep
Pink Floyd
Aerosmith
KISS
Van Halen
Skynyrd
Boston
Bad Co.
ZZ Top
Bob Segar
BOC
Thank God rockers put that selfish hippy crap behind and starting making good music about having a good time!

Subject to change based on how I feel tomorrow, but...
50's: Rave On, Buddy Holly

70's: It's Allright For You, The Police
80's: Cult of Personality, Living Colour
90's: Humans Being, Van Halen
00's: Better Days, Goo Goo Dolls
Nothing to see here. Please disperse.
Great list. You have a great taste my friend
60's "All along the watchtower" Jimi Hendrix
70's "Won't get fooled again" The Who
80's "High and Dry" Def Leppard
90's "Barney the Dinosaur theme song" We had four kids in the nineties, I don't think I can name a 90's song
00's Life is Beautiful Sixx A.M.
60's music was more socially conscious. We were gonna change the world that our parents were screwing up. Someone had to save it.
The 70's was the time for the arena bands with their huge productions. I saw a majority of the bands you list above, plus several more. It was definitely "good time" music because most had a hard time remembering those concerts the next day, and it took you a week to get your hearing back.
And I would add Grand Funk, Deep Purple, Styx, Foreigner, Kansas, and Ted Nugent to the above list.
"In my day you had musicians who experimented with drugs. Now it's druggies experimenting with music" - Alfred G Clark (circa 1972)
Great tunes in my book
60's-You Can't Always Get What You Want-Rolling Stones
70's-Badlands-Bruce Springsteen
80's-Pulling Mussels From A Shell-Squeeze
90's-Mrs. Potter's Lullaby--Counting Crows
00's- I don't have an entry yet...I have two more years to decide.
The only work of anything in the history of ever that could make me love Massachusetts
May well be the greatest driving song. ever.
There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.

60's - All Along the Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix
70's - Southern Man - Neil Young
80's - 18 & Life - Skid Row
90's - Sober - Tool
00's - Clocks - Coldplay
I feel like I want to give Dave Matthews' Two Step and Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here an honorable mention, but love songs just can't be on the list. The 80s and 00s are pretty much been terrible decades for rock music.
