Your oh so humble opinion?
Whatever. In any case, you can't make a objective judgement call on whether
the one hitters of the 80s were worse or better than the 60's, its purely
subjective. For those of us with more open minds and not so limited tastes,
we can appreciate the Gary Numans and Murray Heads ("one night in bangkok")
of the 80s as much as the Count Fives and Cryan' Shames' of the 60s.
