    This one is pretty self-explanatory. What are your favorite songs from the 1980s?

    My Favorites:

    - Everybody Wants to Rule the World - Tears for Fears
    - Talking in Your Sleep - The Romantics
    - Summer of '69 - Bryan Adams
    - Relax - Frankie Goes to Hollywood
    - In the Air Tonight - Phil Collins
    - Tainted Love - Soft Cell

    And those are just some of them!

    All of the songs.
    From the 80s.
    All of them.
    Especially the British ones.

    In all seriousness, I love pretty much anything by the following acts:
    Eurythmics
    David Bowie
    Pink Floyd
    Dire Straits
    Duran Duran
    Queen
    The Rolling Stones
    The Church (these guys especially - they're an Australian rock band and, in my opinion, one of the most underrated bands of all time)
    Mental As Anything
    Split Enz

    Best decade in music history for me. Hands down.

    These seem pretty random and I am bad at thinking of things on the spot but:

    Eye of the tiger - Survivor
    Our House - Madness (mostly out of nostalgia - but still)
    Instruments of Destruction - N.R.G

    Wait do theme songs count too?

    Also You Give Love a Bad Name and Wanted Dead or Alive by Bon Jovi

    I am a huge fan of music from the 80's and because I love a lot of the music, I will list a few titles that I like from the top of my head:

    1. Chaka Khan - I Feel For You
    2. Donna Summer - actually anything by her...but ...Love Is In Control (Finger On The Trigger)
    3. Jody Watley - Looking For A New Love
    4.Soul II Soul - Back To Life
    5. Prince - Pop Life
