My fave pop song of the 80's:
"Everybody Wants To Rule The World" - Tears For Fears Great guitar and keyboard sounds in that tune.

Not sure what "best written" means.
Limiting myself to mainstream hits: "Don't Stop Believin'" was pretty iconic. So was "Living on a Prayer" Maybe something by Prince: "When Doves Cry" or "Purple Rain"? "Nothing Compares 2 U"? Or Bruce: "Dancing In the Dark"? Last edited by bjjp2; 11-04-2009 at 12:53 PM.
