80's music kick

[nation]

Every once in awhile, I get into a music kick where I download lots of great music from a genre. It's included funk, blues, jazz, etc.

Recently, I downloaded "You spin me round" by Dead or Alive. Great 80s song imo.

Anyone have suggestions for great 80's music? All the classics and big hits would be what I'm looking for.
