I blame YouTube. I spend hours at w*rk in the middle of the night flitting from one guilty pleasure to the next Found myself listening to Billy Joel's Piano Man last night along with Bat Out of Hell, ELO, Pink Floyd, The Jam and even Sting

Just looked in my itunes library, it's mostly 80's

Pink Floyd
Not 80's but still worthy of a mention

INXS were terrible. Best tune from the 80's had to be Dire Straits - Money for Nothin...... It has become my creed in life

A bit off topic when we're talking about 'Best 80's', but I stumbled on some Google images of sugar coated sickly sweet pop tart Debbie Gibson from a magazine with a rabbit on the cover the other day That revitalised some adolescent 80's memories

There are rumours that some members of The Alarm were well over 8 foot tall once they'd done their hair!
