I presume you mean 80's pop and don't want me to list some great Sonic Youth, Talking Heads and Fugazi tracks so here's one that you definitely need on it:

this charming man is a kick ass tune! my fave is "im free(heaven helps the man)" by Kenny Loggins, check it out its incredible! "love is a battlefield" by Pat Benitar is another total cracker.:pac:
