We Built This City's video is hilarious. I think the great rock songs from that era include, but aren't necessarily limited to, Whitesnake's "Here I Go Again" and Loverboy's "Working For The Weekend."

Europe - Final Countdown

(when you say 80s rock, I'm thinking glam metal/hair bands, not just any rock music made in the 80s)

Damn Yankees - High Enough

80's? Mexican Radio, Wall of Voodoo.

And I can never hear "we build this city" without hearing Homer Simpson 'sing' it. Ironically, that makes it better than the piece of crap it was in the first place.

Midnight Oil-Beds are Burning.

Sigh sometimes i think i was born in the wrong decade. I dont even listen to new crappy emo rock/crunk rap. I prefer mid-late 80s and early-mid 90s rock and rap.

My current favorite from the 80's is Bryan Adams' "Summer of '69". My favorite changes frequently though.

So many great songs that when I hear them it's just a flash back but I don't know many of the names.
