I will never forget this crazy times, this crazy and unique music that was created in the 80s.
No mixes or samples, no trash, like all the kids in these last decades who think they have a good voice with the big help (mixes, samples).
Just go listen to this list and you might see something special in almost 100% of the songs of this list.
Just have to say that the song that is in number 1 is one of my favorite songs of all times and is from my favorite movie also of all times "The Breakfast Club" 1985 by John Hughes.
In the link below you can see the article and it has some of the videos (10) of the list (if you want to check the videos).
