Stinger390X Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 A couple of others are "Love Like Blood" and "Kiss Me" to name a couple.It's definitely eighties! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brenda Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 This is cruel - just one song?!?!The first track that came to my mind was "Dance Hall Days" by The Wang Chung... and I had to stop thinking about this topic immediately, otherwise my mind would have been flooded by hundreds of songs! It isn't my favourite track but it often makes me think of the time when I was 16 [sigh] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraigm Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Tough one... I would go with Yes- Owner of a Lonely Heart. That song still rocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicechic84 Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 There's so many to choose from (and it's a toss up for me with 'Madonna's', 'Like A Virgin') but I'd have to say 'Duran Duran' with 'Hungry Like The Wolf'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinger390X Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 This is far too hard.....There is so much great music of the eightiesWhat about Airwaves by Thomas Dolby or perhaps anything by Simple Mnds or the Eurythmics.You have a loaded question here that is impossible to answer.All the 80's music was great! I loved it...lived it...and still wish I was there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aly 7 Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 This is impossible,from my perspective anyway. I could sum up the 80`s with more like 1000 songs.not just 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
