Music
When it comes to 1960s music, most of the music that dominated the 1960s was from the British Invasion era. Bands like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Kinks, Gerry and the Pacemakers, The Dave Clark Five took America by storm and suddenly all these girls started screaming bloody murder for these guys from England. It wasn't just Brit rock that rocked America, it was also Motown, 'Message Songs', classic rock
