I'm not a big Judas Priest fan....but I'm totally with you on your other two selections.

Not sure U2's Gloria is forgotten enough though....but I think it's kinda close.

Life in a northern Town is a really solid selection

Fascination - The Human League

A much better song than the over-played Don't you want me.

Pop Music - M

Kids in America - Kim Wilde (and covered really well by a 90's band called The Muffs).

These are easily 3 of the best 80's new wave hits of all-time.

I say

G: 8.5
F: 7

Sorry ... no offense intended ... Relax seems to pop up pretty frequently one way or another. Maybe those are just the voices in my head.

Oh, none taken. Those voices, can they sing?

No, but they are flaming homosexuals like FGTH.

Guns N Roses - One in a Million

Wasn't a hit. DNQ.

"Used to love her" much better, btw.

Dali i have mucho kudos for your sng prowess, however it is supremely evident that your taste in 80's metal is lackluster at best...all GnR songs kick ass, but one in a million is the best song off of lies besides patience (yeah i know it got overplayed, but it was a DAMN good song).

Front 242 --Welcome to Paradise.

Maybe obscure?

Men At Work -- Who Can It Be Now

I never hear this one any more.

That's 2 votes for Kids in America.

Heat of the Moment was decent.

For some reason it reminds of how much I dug te song Rosanna by Toto.

I don't know why but I always seemed to get Toto and Asia mixed up...probably just because they both have really short names.

I think honorable mention should go to Ghostbusters by whats-his-name because of how bad it was.
