I can’t put it into words how inspiring and uplifting the guitar solo is.

I always thought the sond was creepy, until I had kids and the idea of being there for them changed the meaning for me. Also, the "I'll be missing you" remix hit around the time I was mourning the loss of my brother, and I still can't hear either version without tears.

The Sun Always Shines On TV by Ah-Ha. Not well known, but it's a great tune from an even better album.

Never gonna give you up - Rick Astley. By far the song that still holds the most relevant in today's era.

It's a song so catchy! most people probably don't listen to the lyrics, But they should! because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself.

Maybe not the best 80's song, but "You can call me Al" might be the most 80's song from the 80's.

Anything off ‘The Cry-Beautiful Reasons’

It’s like they took all 80s music and distilled a single amazing album.
