Was 1980s music more upbeat/positive than 1970s music?

There are no absolutes to describe either decade’s music. Do you sense more of a party, upbeat, positive, fun and goofy associations with 1980s music (except hard core punk)? Does 1970s music (other than disco) seem more related to protests, mysticism, serious deeper meanings (progressive rock for example), maybe anger?
Bright colors replaced denim.
Dancing and fun parties replaced sitting around stoned?
Might this be a reflection of the eras? The reactive baby boomers and the Vietnam War, Watergate, Nixon, gas shortages, inflation vs Reagan, hostages freed, the 1984 Olympics, short hair (thought the early 1980s had its economic challenges with 15% mortgages for example).
