OK so I wasnt really living in the 80's, but they did have some good stuff them

WHAM! - wake me up before you go go
Cyndi Lauper - Time after time
Somebody - heaven is a place on earth

what else..

Argh there's so many.

I'm into all the movie songs, especially from "Flashdance" (Irene Cara's 'What a Feeling') and "Dirty Dancing" (the original 'Hey Baby' and 'Time Of My Life').

Somebody - heaven is a place on earth

it's by belinda carlisle ..

"99 luft balloons" - nena (although that might have been early 90s)

"turning japanese" - the vapors

"kharma chameleon" - culture club

 

[Butterfly_Wings]

That "Eh, Shuddupa your face" song...don't know the actual name. And Eye of the tiger!
And Kharma Chameleon of course...how can anyone resist?

 

[Gregor Samsa]

Joy Division-Love Will Tear Us Apart.
Talking Heads-Once In A Lifetime
U2-New Year's Day

The rest of these aren't really 'hits'.

The Pixies-Monkey Gone To Heaven

New Order-Ceremony
The Smiths-There Is A Light That Never Goes Out
R.E.M-Cuyahoga
My Bloody Valentine-Lose My Breath
The Replacements-Unsatisfied
Glenn Branca-The Spectacular Commodity
The Clash-The Callup (Unfortunately, London Calling came out right at the end of 1979..for these purposes..)

 

[Minai]

Eye of the Tiger - Survivor
Down Under - Men at Work
Billie Jean - Michael Jackson

those were my faves

 

[um..]

de la soul - all of three feet high and rising

[Paisley]

You fools!

Everybody knows that the greatest 80s song (if not the greatest song of all time) is Down Under by Men At Work...
