I love the 1980's when it comes to music. If there's one thing I like about my entertainment it's that I must be engrossed by it. Escapism is also good. 80's music usually fits the bill.
Some of my favourite 80's music (in no particular order):
Huey Lewis & The News - a definite favourite for singing along to in a 1980's do-wop style
The Police - Too bad Sting had to be such a control freak and alienate the other band members causing them to hate him
U2 - The best thing about their music in the 1980's was how engaging it was to listen to as complete albums. So textural and nearly symphonic at times. It's all about the arrangement.
Van Halen - To me, nothing says guitar wank better than Van Halen.
Unfortunately, I can't think of anything else right now... the 90's killed my memories of the 80's...
