The above table contains music by 215 bands or individual singers, with 1 or 2 songs attributed to most of them. The idea is to select a diverse set of artists from different decades and figure out which is the decade that appealed the most to us, and still does. While listening to music from the past decades, we could perhaps see a remarkable change in the 60's and the 70's, as past generations moved on from the horrors of World War II and the Korean war. 80's and the 90's saw more and more technology in action. Focus of the present century is more on the quality and contents of meaningful lyrics, but we might be reading too much into these. Only time will tell if (and which of) the pop music of the 2010's and 2020's will be remembered as evergreen music after another 30 or 40 years, as we remember those from the 1960's and 70's, more than half a century after they were recorded and released. Anyways, the top bands/artists are as follows:

Beatles (23)
Abba (15)
Madonna (12)
Simon and Garfunkel (7)
Boney-M (7)
Mariah Carey (4)
Katy Perry (4)
John Denver (3)
