A song from at least 5 decades
We are now into the 7th decade of pop as the charts started in the 50s, ie the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s and 10s.
So, this is a chance to reflect on an example of a song from each of 5,6 or 7 successive decades. I shall start with my fave song of the 60s-10s so far as follows: 60s Beach Boys:- Do It Again 70s Alan Price:- Jarrow Song 80s Bangles:- Walk Like an Egyptian 90s Natalie Imbruglia:- Torn 00s Franz Ferdinand:- Take Me Out 10s Joshua Radin:- Brand New Day |

A bump for anyone who wants to join in, but I couldn't possibly pick a favourite song from each decade personally
