I have a mixed and varied music taste but unfortunatly a crap memory There are loads and loads of tunes from the 80s and 90s of all types that I like but can't remember the names of. Are there any sites that list loads of songs and preferably with a introduction sample of say 10 seconds of the main part of the song. Even just a list of loads and loads of artists and their tracks might help me jog my memory.

Example of songs I'd listen to to give you an idea for how varied my tastes are:

- Snap: Rythm is a Dancer
- Stone Roses: She Bangs the Drums
- REM: Losing my Religion
- U2: With or without you
- Madonna: Like a Prayer
- Notorious BIG: Hypnotize
- Snoop Dogg: Gin & Juice
- The Stranglers: Always the Sun
- Binary Finary 1999
- Loads of other trance.....


As you can see I have a massively varied test so need a comprehensive list of tracks. Can anyone help
