    hi just thought I'd chime in...I collect 80s records in addition to many other genres (got over 2500 LPs and many singles) and here are my 5 of the 80s:

    Depeche Mode-Fools, from the Construction Time Again bonus EP 1983
    Positive Noise-Waiting for the Seventh Man, off Change of Heart 1982
    Wall of Voodoo-Full of Tension, off Dark Continent 1981
    Dream Academy-Johnny (New Light) from their s/t 1985 LP
    Rouen-Shake Me! (no clue what year, off a 12" single)
