Now, a couple of those I don't agree with, but that's what's so great about the 80s!! I can have my 80 faves, you can have yours, and there are so many more to choose from!

I liked 'Rain On The Scarecrow' better than 'Paper In Fire'. I think it meant more to me at the time.

I think a great video to add would be 'These Dreams' by Heart, or even their 'All I Wanna Do Is Make Love To You' video.
