Popular Songs From The 1980′s

80 was a great year for me. It is this period where I had music deep and heavy. And from a musical family, my personal impact on this area began in the 80s when I listened to my choice of music. It became something more than an interest or hobby. I literally became a “collector of songs” heard “. .. Yes this may sound strange, but this has really done everything possible and sought every opportunity to hear all the songs that I could. .. and since.

In dedication to that period, I took a project to the list of 50 songs of each year, ie in the period 1980 to 1989. We’re talking about a very wide range of songs, talent, artists and stars. Songs from the 1980 release of Pink Floyd “Another Brick in the Wall” in 1989 affected Roxette – “The Look” How music has traveled during this period.?

Which included my top 50 of each year, so I decided to compile a list of the top 50 throughout the period.

That’s where the trouble began. How on earth could limit this incredible period of only 50 subjects. I literally banged my head against the wall. It was too difficult. The 80 were recorded and published classics that have changed the way we listen to the music of today. Established stars who are now the main source of a thriving industry. Try hard as I could, I did not know the songs off the list. Every revolutionary and offensive. But again, a job that had to do and I did.

Here is a list of 50 best songs, I think that defines the 80s. This list is based not only factor in their ‘hit’ at the time, but especially on its influence in the industry in general. Iconic impact and relevance today, even in 2011. These themes are timeless.

Although the list of 10 to 50, there was no way he could really wide. Each song has earned a spot on this list. So please do not take the number as a ranking! It is for this reason have been listed by year of release.

Do not send me your comments if you think the song on this list should have been replaced by another.

There.

Hard work and unfortunately had to skip a number of tracks and artists like Whitney Houston. In your case, I personally felt that its 80 tracks were really surprising is the cover of Dolly Parton’s “I’ll Always Love You,” which was symbolic and had his name in a totally different picture. Like Madonna had a series of hits, but actually it was “Like a Virgin”, who created the puzzle that today is Madonna.

T listen to these new and “Happy Music Retro Music!
