Never trust compilations where songs are numbered in places. It is just uploader's (or someone other's) opinion. It is impossible to pick top 10 songs from the 80's. Its like to pick the best song of the life of all mankind. Sold albums are the best indicator.
Hmm - in Billboard's "Hottest Hot 100 Hits" these were the top ten singles of 1980 - 10. (Just Like) Starting Over - John Lennon 9. Crazy Little Thing Called Love - Queen 8. Woman In Love - Barbra Streisand 7. Rock With You - Michael Jackson 6. Another Brick In The Wall - Pink Floyd 5. Upside Down - Diana Ross 4. Lady - Kenny Rogers 3. Do That To Me One More Time - Captain & Tennille 2. Call Me - Blondie 1. Another One Bites The Dust - Queen
why must people criticize music that not from the 80s? i like 80s music and everything else! i will listen to any music. i dont understand why people are so protective of 80s music like its some retarded person who has feelings or something. you dont need to say that todays music sucks and only 80s music is good. only if people would stop being protective jerks, the world might be a little beter..... or not
'Coming Up' made the top ten, let alone the top 1000 of 1980!!! If Paul McCartney hadn't been an ex-Beatle any label would have laughed a piece of shit song like that out of the office. And where are the actual seminal artists: Joy Division, Bowie, The Jam? This is a joke, surely.
@mgo26 Mate, it's at times like these that I go down on my knees and pray to the great lord above and thank him that I was born English. Capt. & Tenille? Macca? ONJ? Can only assume this is based on US sales coz otherwise it's ridiculous. Let's just content ourselves by laughing at the septics. Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
IM 18 years old and i listen to this and older, its unfair to say my generation doesnt listen to good music, though i agree most of the music that is coming out these days isnt any good.
@saury272 "hi im 50000 yeas old and i listn to this music" who cares how old you are its normal for young people to listen to old music because its real music
@PupuTheClown no, came out in april of 1980, and by june it was a number 1 hit. but Wings was singing this song as part of their tour of the UK in early 1979. great song though.
,,I like the live version much better, he probably had the studio version recorded by the time Back to the egg was released but didn't release it just like Goodnight Tonight.
@PupuTheClown yeah, the live version is cool. i read somewhere that "Coming Up," was actually featured on the last album under the monkor of the band "Wings," but titled, "McCartney II," as the band "Wings," was kind of in limbo. but you're right, i have yet to hear a live track by Wings or Paul McCartney that isn't good.
@encik9 yeah the women from the 70s and 80s were beautiful and she ISNT!!!! SHES THE FUCKING UGLIEST SACK OF FEMALE SHIT that EVER WALKED THE EARTH!!!!!
no mamees weeey That music you put in the video are some of all the best 80s songs. . but you put Songs that where more good than that mutherfucker thing!!!
You forgot Eye of the tiger ,Africa,99 Red ballons, I will survive, BILLIE JEAN, And even more songs that are mor good than that!!!!!!!!!!! (HHHHHHHHHHHH)'
What has happened to music? Why is it so boring now. What have people done to music. Songs in the 80's are music not crappy boring f---ed up songs these days.
i wasn;t born in the 80's unfortunately but the songs such as the queen and micheal jackson rocks and will still rock out compared to todays songs altough i am still young.
@cheerleader457 This is 1980 not 1984. Thriller album came out in 1982 the single wasn´t released until december 1983 or January 1984 and reached no.4 It was never top 10 on the end year chart.
A fascinating thought would be to go back in time, find Debra Harry and tell her that people would be dancing to her music in clubs for another thirty years. She would probably look at you with bloodshot bleary stoned eyes and tell you to ease off the drugs a bit. A hell of a concept given how hard she was doing heroin back then. Regardless, she does rock and still does.
Amazing how fast time goes by... and how musical creativity seems to have vanished in the haze of a glorious past. There may be a few good songs out there today, but they all pale by comparison before the fantastic music of the 70's and 80's.
@gabstanace i agree 100%, not because i was a part of that era but music lost its soul. There are a handful of talented bands around and a crap load of one hit wonders, it's like some one turned on the tap of 'how to make a quick buck'.
@gabstanace I agree with you 100% where did it all go wrong? I think the rot set in around early 1988. As soon as hip-hop/rap was finally recognised as 'music' the game was up.
This is about what was popular during the year 1980, not what when it was created. If that were the case, then Michael Jackson should not be on here since the "Off The Wall" album was recorded and released in 1979. And the first two singles were released in the summer and fall of 79.
But again, they were hits in 1980. And you can't deny "The Wall" as it dominated 1980 and beyond!
