Music from the 80's

Yes, there were SOME decent tunes from the 80's. It wasn't all Culture Club or Duran Duran. Although I must admit that, like many other teenage girls, I did go through a Duran Duran phased of sorts. However, I did not go so far as to emulate them (i.e., wearing a fedora).

Some 80's groups/musicians with some redeeming qualities:
  • Psychedlic Furs

  • The Smiths

  • Echo & the Bunnymen

  • Siouxsie and the Banshees

  • The Police

  • U2 (I am somewhat biased in that I prefer their older stuff)

  • Midnight Oil

  • INXS

  • Joe Jackson

I'm sure there are others. Any suggestions to add to the list?
