    Love My Way and Take On Me were the next closest to making my 5 songs........as were a number of songs by The Cars. The Cars are my favorite 80's band but they just have way too many great songs for me to decide.

    Simple Minds was one of my favourite bands

    Jim married Chrissie, and Chrissie is a Goddess. Nuff said there.

    Oh ya...

    The Pretenders were my 2nd fave band ;)

    Melt With You - Modern English
    When Doves Cry - Prince
    Take On Me - ?? (maybe Flock of Seagulls or somebody like that?)
