What are some really good pop/rock songs from the 80's?!


Question: I love pop/rock 80's music, I'll try to think of as many as I can from my 80's playlist.

Billy Joel- "Sometimes a Fantasy", "Don't Ask Me Why",
"Uptown Girl"
Blondie- "Call Me", "One Way or Another"
Buggles- "Video Killed the Radio Star"
Cyndi Lauper- "Girls Just Want to Have Fun", "Time After Time"
Dexy's Midnight Runners- "Come on Eileen"
Duran Duran- "Rio", "Hungry Like the Wolf"
Eurythmics- “Sweet Dreams”
The Go-Go's- “Our Lips Are Sealed”
A-Ha- “Take On Me”
Journey- “Don't Stop Believing”
Madonna- “Like a Virgin”
Michael Jackson- “Billie Jean”
Modern English- “I Melt With You”
Pat Benatar- “Hit Me With Your Best Shot”, “Love Is A Battlefield”, “Invincible”, “We Belong”
The Police- “Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic”, “Every Breath You Take”
Queen/David Bowie- “Under Pressure”
Rick Springfield- “Jessie's Girl”
Soft Cell- “Tainted Love”
Tommy Tutone- “867-5309 / Jenny”
U2- “Pride (In the Name of Love)”
Van Halen- “Jump”

Most of these are pop songs, though I threw in a few rock bands. If you would like more of a hard rock sound, (Aerosmith, Guns N' Roses etc.) Please just indicate this, as I have several recommendations for those as well.
