80's music: Favorite songs thread
This was such a great time for music for me (along with the 70's) that I'd think I will start a thread to sing it's praises. So many great tunes. Here's one I like...love those church bells!!

From 1989.
Fuzzbox - Pink pink sunshine. Great track. Vix, the lead singer, was the stuff of dreams http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_72Y9L7DAk |

Propaganda - Duel/Jewel
When I recall 80s' there is one song & video that sums up the music, style & decadance of the time. Propaganda had two mysterious & beautiful vocalists, Claudia Brucken & Suzanne Freytag - also a classic extended version
very 80s - The Remix truly arrived ! Propaganda - Duel (HD Video) Propaganda - Duel (Extended 12" Version) - audio The 'B' side - Jewel (an elecro/punked-up version of the original) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propaganda_(band) |

I spent the '80s listening, mostly, to jazz: Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Mahavishnu Orchestra, etc. What little rock I liked from that decade came from bands like The Minutemen and Black Flag. And then there was Kate.

If I had to pick one timeless song that I like almost as much today as I did when it was released it has to be. This song captures a girlfriend and a time for me; brings that time right back:
The Boys of Summer Don Henley There are so many songs I like for different moods, but this is one song that I always feel like hearing. The video was taken down? |

The best and the worst, from 1981,
The best Ultravox, Vienna, Video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9WdUgn0XkU Live, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdaNlAGRx_k Background, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vienna_(Ultravox_song)) The worst Vienna was kept off the number one spot (in the UK anyway) by this other 80s classic, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-BKcKMS748
