Best song of the 80's

[STEVON]

com'on lets face facts the 80's had better music than any other decade, or well I think so, the 60's came close, but the 80's is nice.
I would just wanna see what people think was the best song of the eighties ?

[Chyna]

Well um and no i aint gonna say Culture Club um well anyways
I love near enough all the 80's songs, so i cant really choose.

[The Crippler]

My favourite song from the eighties is With or Without You by U2.

[BRM]

The cripplers got it, the joshua tree is the greatest album ever U2 rocked then and still do!

Enter the sandman Metallica (Black album)



Best ever Metallica album



The extreme menace the real UK f'n show

[Grapple]

As far U2 LPs go, I prefer Achtung Baby to the Joshua Tree myself.

Best song of the 80s? Probably Two Tribes by Frankie.

[The Crippler]

I think both Achtung Baby and The Joshua Tree are fantastic but I agree with Grapple, Achtung Baby is better.

Tut, tut, tut, The Black Album was released in 1991 and is very obviously inferior to the classic 3.

Some great 'tallica songs and instrumentals from the 80s, (in chronological order), include...

Four Horsemen
Phantom Lord
Seek & Destroy
For Whom The Bell Tolls
Fade To Black
Creeping Death
Call Of Ktulu
Battery
Master Of Puppets
Disposable Heroes
Orion
Blackened
...And Justice For All
One
To Live Is To Die

Given that choice I couldn't really pick a favourite.

[SiMania]

U2's where the streets have no name is the best 80's song IMO

[Kam]

What about Final countdown by Europe? I loved that song! :)

Well I suppose that salvages a tincy bit of dignity for you. :D

[BRM]

i think it reached the heights of number 37 in the charts, god how sad am i knowing that

[craig p]

ste von u werent even born in the 80s probably

[TMJ]

Adam and the Ants and dat Alice Cooper (poison, i think) ruled.

[TsuMirren]

Hmmmm, which Simple Minds song to choose...

Could it be Alive & Kicking or Don't You Forget About Me...two of my karaoke masterclass favourites...or could it be something like I Travel or Sanctify Yourself.

Course, it could be so many songs...even something by Yello (and I don't mean "Oh yeah")

Hmmm, best song of the 80's...christ, you're talking about when music was music...Def Leppard, Adam Ant, Elton John (shut it right), Elvis Costello, Duran Duran, U2, Simple Minds, Yello...etc, etc, etc.

"Open Your Arms" and "Goodwill City" by Goodbye Mr MacKenzie will never get the recognition they deserve...so for that reason alone i'm going with, "Open Your Arms". Although, "Motown Junk" by the Manic Street Preachers gets close.

[Inno]

I was always partial to "My Sharona" by The Knack, but a lot of the Adam & The Ants stuff was cool... I liked the one hit wonders as well... Men Without Hats, Nena...

[Thundara]

"Enjoy the Silence" by Depeche Mode.

A fine electronic song me finks.:xyx

[Youngy]

New Orders - True Faith or Depece Modes - Enjoy The Slience

ELECTRONIC POP RULES
