I can't cut and paste!
I have been challenged to prove the 1980's had a great music.
So feel free to join in
Here are 11 of mine. I have left out a load of club tracks, early house, acid Jazz, acid house, nu wave jazz, and Spandex Rock rock. So no flares, no love beads and incense, no hippys. I ust power suits, big hair and the attitude to succeed, everything was possible!
Ashes to Ashes - David Bowie
Fascist Groove Thang - Heaven 17
Sweetest Girl - Scritti Politti
Voodoo Ray - A Guy Called Gerald
Walk This Way - Run DMC Aerosmith
Let the Music Play - Shannon
In the Air Tonight - Phil Collins
Anita Baker - Sweet Love
I Still Have Not Found What I am Looking For - U2
Back to Life Soul - II Soul
I Wanna Dance with Somebody - Whitney Houston
Man with the Golden Horn - Miles Davis

Definitely some good tunes here.
GMan you are excused boots.
My bad as I missed GK's earlier post as I have not been on the forum.
To prevent having two identical threads, here is the original GK thread of the 80's.
Thank you everybody you have excellent musical taste.
