Good 80's songs?

I just heard "Real Wild One" on NBC and realized how cool that song was. There are other great 80s songs but I can't seem to remember any at the moment. Any suggestions?

Anything by New Order, Tears for Fears, Howard Jones, Culture Club, and Nine Inch Nails. Pretty hate machine was released in 1989. Also, Joy Division's Love will tear us apart was released in early 1980 so that still counts I guess.
 
Tube's "She's A Beauty" is a personal favorite from the eighties, but there are tons more that I like.
There are 100s of good 80s songs.
Check out some of the songs by The Outfield, Human League, Flock of Seagulls, etc
 
Anything by Anthrax during the 80s ... Among the Living has always been one of my favorite Anthrax CDS
Anything on Megadeth - So Far So Good so what (and peace sells, but whos buying)
Metallica had a few good songs bacx then
Anything on Slayer - reign in blood was great
On the cheesy side ... Manowar was pretty good
Most Iron Maiden tracks from the 80s were really excellent
 
u2 songs
depeche mode songs
pet shop boys songs
new order songs
erasure songs
dead or alive - you spin me round and - brand new lover
bad boys blue - train to nowhere
red flag - several good ones
information society - whats on your mind?
Konkan has one good song
T 4 2 has one good song
cutting crew
tears for fears
a ha - take on me
simple minds
