Share your favorite song from the 80's No, songs that are from the 90's but sound like 80's songs don't count. Add a video, if one is available. My favorite is 99 Luftballons by Nena

Having actually lived this period (I was 10) I'd like to share 2 which really left an immense impression on me. Both more or less related to Germany, just like Nena Codo, performed by DÖF: click here if the video doesn't play Not only is this a very catchy tune, in my opinion anyway, I also liked how they could perform this on stage. What I'm sharing here is obviously playback, but I've seen these guys live too. And yeah: they can pull this off life as well. Second... One of my favorite movies of the 80's, also because well... When I was a kid (uh oh, grandpa Shell talking) we loved to do jet spotting (dunno what the right term is). There was an airbase roughly 15km from our school (airbase "Soesterberg", it's been decommissioned now) and the best part: you could sit / stand right at the back of the runway. On a small hill even (next to the road). So you had a perfect vision of everything which happened there. We skipped plenty of school afternoons (not that many ) to head over there and watch some cool maneuvers going on. I can still remember when a friend of mine learned about a squadron of special jets (I really don't remember all the details anymore) which came over from the US and were going to be stationed there. We saw them land there for the first time, which was awesome! So obviously I liked watching Top Gun. When we (6 of us) went over to a friends place to watch the video (VHS, yes, DVD's didn't exist back then) we even managed to get the neighbors to "complain" because we had the audio turned up a little bit too high (to get that real "Soesterberg experience" you know ). Alas... I really enjoyed (and still do!) this one as well: click here if the video doesn't play And still I love the scene where this is used; where Maverick drives off (totally pissed off) and 'Charlie' follows him in her car, going through red and almost crashing into another car. "<censored>, what the hell was that? And you think I am reckless?!". So yeah... good times, good memories. Thanks for starting this!
I grew up around 80s music (and 90s technology, lol), having parents that were born in the early 70s. I love 80s songs. I don't actually know the bands I like, though, and I've never really bothered to ask I'd link Hungry like the Wolf if I knew for sure it was an 80s song, and if I could be bothered to Google it and link it
Favorite song from the 80s would have to be Blister in the Sun by the Violent Femmes: link: https://youtu.be/8YdQBkxf4kU
I love so many 80's songs. I honestly couldn't choose. There are so many great ones... Tainted Love is a great one especially x3 But honestly, there's so many great ones!
Don't forget Vangalis and Jean Michel Jarre Old Synth music is anyway something nice to hear. And offcorse Commodore 64 music orginal and remade sounds always good too. To many to choice from. Some are already posted above.
I was a teen during the 80s, so this is my hey-day of going to see bands play Some of the cassettes (yep, those lol) that never left my car back then. I've tried to put them in chronological order from their album release date, and I may have some mistakes in that ordering, but close enough.
