Guest howyousawtheworld Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 What are, in your opinions, the best songs of the 1980s? I don't know about you but I felt it was the best decade ever in music! My personal fave from the 80s is There Is A Light That Never Goes Out. Probably the best song ever written in my view!

Electric.Candy Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 basically why I think 80's was the worst decade is because of all these big-haired popstars. I know there are a LOT of other great stuff in 80's like Jazz (l'm talking about the Stevie Wonder-kind of Jazz). I guees I just hate the 80's pop. lolo.

Guest howyousawtheworld Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 THIS. I love this song too! It is perfect in every single way is that song is There Is A Light That Never Goes Out! Now you can't have a Best Songs of the 80s thread without U2 can you? [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHcP4MWABGY&ob=av3e]YouTube- U2 - Pride (In The Name Of Love)[/ame] p.s - there's a couple who didn't like the 80s here. Must have been Britain where it was brilliant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
