    Default Greatest songs of the 80s.

    Some years ago, I started a thread where people could write down their favourite 80s music. I was supposed to burn a "greatest songs of the 80s disc/discs" compilation after that but I never took the time to finish it.. Then this board was hacked and the thread was gone. So now I'm trying to do it again and I need your help. What songs are your favourites from the 80s?

    Thanks now that song's stuck in my head!!!

    Aside from ^ that one (does it qualify as a song?), I'm kinda partial to tuneage from the Bay Area scene back in the day.

    Forever - Y&T (among others from these guys)
    Anything from Dawn Patrol - Night Ranger
    She's a Beauty - The Tubes
    Anything from Huey Lewis & The News

    And non-Bay Area:
    Higher Love - Steve Winwood
    Without You - Asia (and the rest of their albums)
    VH anything
    Scorpions anything
    Priest anything
    Heart anything

    Sorry to be so vague, but I love a lotta songs from the 80's.
    RIP - Classic Van Halen
