I'm scared that not only did you take the time to concoct this and type it, but also that your song choices are universally awful. I'll take exception to #39, 30, 20, and 8. But that's just my opinion. Rock on with your bad self!

ITA with you! But that being said, yup... rock on. |
|
ABC - Look of Love and Poison Arrow, and some of their later ones too
Squeeze - most of it - Tempted, Pulling Mussels. Seen them twice and seeing them this summer. Bow Wow Wow - I Want Candy The Weathergirls - It's Raining Men Prince - 1999, lots more |
agree But I'll replace your 8 with 13. |
| "Take me on" by Ah-ha |
| make that: "Take on Me" by Ah Ha |
| "Blister in the Sun" Violent Femmes |
|
No one has mentioned The Police!
"King of Pain"...... |
|
"Life in a Northern Town"
Dream Academy |
Because, in the great scheme of 80's music, The Police are pretty mediocre. |
