DOM'S TOP 100 80s SONGS OF ALL-TIME!!!

[TheRover]

By 80's do you mean a certain style of music or just anything released in the 80's? If it's the latter I don't really like ripping other people's music taste, but this list blows.

I also didn't include: Springsteen, Journey, Styx, The Cars, Michael Jackson, Huey Lewis and many others....odd, because I really love the Cars, Springsteen and U2...but I did do this list fairly off the cuff, so you gotta give me some slack. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Yes, this might be the best song of the decade period.

Though Kids in America is close and you captured it, so you get a pass.

Great idea for a thread!

We need some polls or some way to vote and rank the top 100.

My suggestions for bands you left out:
Journey - Don't Stop Believin'
Survivor - High on You
Huey Lewis - Power of Love
U2 - With or Without You
The Cars - Drive
AC/DC - You Shook Me All Night Long
Crowded House - Don't Dream It's Over
Asia - Heat of a Moment

Other suggestions for the bands you listed:
Bangles - Eternal Flame
Pat Benatar - We Belong
David Bowie (and Queen) - Under Pressure
Berlin - Take my Breath Away
Don Henley - End of the Innocence
Scandal - The Warrior
The Police - King of Pain
Van Halen - Jump
Toto - Africa
Genesis - Throwing it all away
Tears for Fears - Everybody wants to rule the world

Ones I COMPLETELY agree with:
Belinda Carlisle/Mad About You
Kim Carnes/Bette Davis Eyes
The Cure - Just Like Heaven
Murray Head/One Night in Bangkok
Hooters/And We Danced
Outfield/Your Love
Thompson Twins/Hold Me Now

Excellent choice.

I agree with about 70%, and disagree with about 30%

Van Halen - Running with The Devil
Belinda Carlisle - Blue Heaven
Toto - Hold the Line

A few others I thing I would have gone with another choice.

One that sticks out for me that you missed is

Marillion - Kayleigh (I think it had more airplay in Europe) - I'm pretty sure it was in the 80's - great song


Oops - Running with the Devil - 70's
