Please post the fabulous songs/sounds from the decade that are NOT cliche-numbers yet (may have been) under-rated or forgotten.

Here is my first one.

The artist did not score nearly half a dozen wives for nothing. Here is Rod Stewart singing '...Young Hearts will be free tonite..'. This one should suit since it's a long weekend.

takes me back to my 4th grade at a boarding school.....

I appreciate you guys sharing the soundtracks that marked your life during the 80s.

Now playing..

Father Figure - George Michael

Again I wish he was not gay. I would prefer no one to be gay for that matter but freedom of choice or genetic defect so they say. Right?

Don Henley establishes himself as a well-seasoned artist even after having gone solo.

Boys of Summer - 1984's "Building the Perfect Beast"
`

Next Time I fall-Peter Cetera (Chicago)

George Michael - Kissing a Fool - Faith album(1988)

Doesn't George sound like one of those crooners like Michael Buble in this one? But George is definitely a better singer since he has withstood the test of time for a whopping twentyfive-plus years . 'Just love this flashback from the 80s since it has such a jazzy touch to it. Enjoy now..

Teardrops - Shakin Stevens

Hey TM!

Swing The Mood by Jive Bunny & the Mastermixers ...

DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince ..

Agnetha Faltskog with her only post-ABBA number one song .. The Heat Is On

Now that I mentioned Agnetha, I could not resist including one of ABBA songs as well. From their last studio album before their break up, this has been an anthem for the broken-hearted lovers ...

ONE OF US

Gangstas Paradise by Coolio ...Michelle Pfeiffer is always hot

And now the parody...

Amish Paradise by the parody king Weird Al Yankovic

typical sound from 80's. reminds me of  my 90s as most of these songs from 80's, i listened to for the first time during my 90s only but boy you can easily make out from the drum beats alone that it's from the frolicking 80s and i love it ...damn! nostalgia

Spandau Ballet -- True

Maxi Priest - Some guys have all the luck
