I must admit, I cheated a bit. I googled 1980s music and found a forum where people made these lists. I was amazed at how many people named Queen as their favourite 80s band then proceeded to list Bohemian Rhapsody as one of their top 10 80s songs. Dar oh dear.

I forgot to add Karma Chameleon by Culture Club. Gotta dig Boy George.

In no particular order ...

Living A Boy's Adventure Tale - Aha
Duel - Propoganda
Big Log - Robert Plant
Reward - Teardrop Explodes
Kiss This Thing Goodbye - Del Amitri
Living On The Ceiling - Blancmange
Always In The Back Of My Mind - Spandau Ballet
Pale Shelter - Tears For Fears
Eyes Without A Face - Billy Idol
Julia - Eurythmics

As the 80's is my specialist subject, there are LOADS more.
