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?
