@olegw this is my entry, "upside down" by Diana Ross.
This poster shows the Majek Fashek's Prisoner of Concience
Category 2
Category 3
This is one of Dolly Parton's song sung in the 80's which I liked while growing up named "9 to 5".
This is a song by Lucky Dube sang in the 1980's titled, "Hand that Giveth (Slave)"
Category #2
I divide 80's music into 3 buckets. Hair Bands, Punk and Pop.
Hair Bands: Twister Sister - We're Not Gonna Take It (1984)
Man, when I was in 4th grade these guys were wicked cool. Watch it now, and, well, still awesome but in a different way lol
Punk: Dead Kennedys - Holiday in Cambodia (1980)
Unfortunately I did not discover this band until the 1990s, but what a break through group in the punk movement!
Pop: Michael Jackson - Thriller (1982)
This one probably needs no explanation. This song was epic and became an entity of its own. I remember going to the skating rink and when this video played EVERYONE would stop skating, sit on the floor, and watched with eyes glued to the big screen.
Thank you for your great entries :)
1.Survivor - Eye Of The Tiger
2.Grace jones
3.RUN-DMC - It's Tricky

Entry # 1 Cyndi Lauper - Girls Just Want To Have Fun.
What woman did not identify with that song at some point? They just want to have fun and have a great time, this is a song that makes your day.
Entry # 2 Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
A song that marked this decade as one of the best, is a classic that young people today enjoy no matter what time it is.
Entry # 3 Michael Jackson - Thriller.
A song that was very fashionable at this time, there was no party where they did not place it and all at the same time they danced the choreography. Without a doubt it is a very influential song that when you listen to it you feel in the 80s

Great idea for contest! This is a tough one, so much choices, here are three of those (by order of years they came out):
#1. New Order - Blue Monday (1983)
#2. Bon Jovi - Livin' On A Prayer (1986)
#3. Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up (1987)
This one is maybe a little weird entry, this song became much more popular lately by "rickrolling" someone, but in that time Rick gained great success, and also it's a little funny entry
