What would be your favorite song from the 1980's be? Anything by the Bangles, Michael Jackson, Wham!, Huey Lewis and the News, or someone else? Personally, some of my favorites are Walk Like an Egyptian, Queen of Hearts, That's What Friends are For, 9 to 5, I Love a Rainy Night, Footloose, Let's Hear It for the Boy, St. Elmo's Fire (Man In Motion), Total Eclipse of the Heart, and Mickey.

Queen - 'A Kind of Magic'. It is an AWESOME album. That pretty much explains it all. Reply #85. Oct 25 10, 11:34 PM |

These are the top songs from 80 – 89 taken from US charts, published by Billboard. And although it reflects an average just across the US many of the same songs were hits worldwide. America in the 80s really did take international pop artists to their heart. Call Me - Blondie Bette Davis Eyes - Kim Carnes Physical - Olivia Newton-John Every Breath You Take - Police When Doves Cry - Prince Careless Whisper - Wham! Featuring George Michael That's What Friends Are For - Dionne & Friends Walk Like An Egyptian - Bangles Faith - George Michael Look Away - Chicago Reply #92. Dec 23 10, 4:37 AM |

Although not in my era and particular genre of music, I would have to say anything by Depeche Mode. I just wanted to get up and dance anytime I heard anything by them even though I was brought up with sixties and very early seventies rock music. Reply #95. Jan 06 11, 1:21 PM |

"Dreaming" and "Some People" by Cliff Richard, also Cliff's live version of "Daddy's Home". I have to also mention "All I Ask Of You" by Cliff Richard with Sarah Brightman AND "Don't Give Up" by Peter Gabriel with Kate Bush. Reply #99. Aug 01 15, 1:22 AM |
