Sting - Fragile
* I don't like Sting. Solo works have steadily gone down the crapper since The Police broke up: 0.
Incubus - I Miss You
*I have listened to both versions and it still sounds like crap. Hmmm: 0.
Tomcraft - Loneliness
*???
Placebo - The Bitter End
*That's so cool. You're a Placebo listener! Great song too: 4.
Radiohead - Street Spirit
*Sha, as if they could lower than... 5!
Belinda Carlisle - In Too Deep
*It's an okay tune: 3.
Divinyls - I Touch Myself
*Yeeeeah! Awesome tune. Lead singer was kinda hot too, so that helped me liking this one: 4
Beverly Craven - Promise Me
*???
Paul Weller - You Do Something To Me
*So-so. Middle of the scale effort: 2.5
Blondie - Atomic
*Hahaha. Peaked at number one when I was born! I still don't listen to this one enough to give it a higher rating than 3.
Coral - Dreaming Of You
*???
Go Go's - Apology
*Hmmm. So-so: 2.5.
Patti Smith - Because The Night
*Not a fan of hers. Ugh! 1.
Snap - Rhythm Is A Dancer
*Yeah! I love Snap! "The Power" was also awesome! 5
Blur - Girls and Boys
*Probably the second best song in this list! 5!
Alphaville - Big In Japan
*This is the best one you have here: 10! Alphaville is such an underrated group with a good, catchy sound. They were big everywhere else except here in the US.
Elton John - Sacrifice
*Nope. 0.
Shed Seven - On Standby
*???
Replacements - Can't Hardly Wait
*???
Dubstar - Stars
*I don't bother with the Dubstars...
OMD - Electricity
*Classic New Wave sound for the 80s that was recorded in... 1979! This one is a fiver! 5. A total 5.
Michael Jackson - Beat It
*I like this one. I usually rate it pretty high. This time, I feel it deserves a 4.5
Lifehouse - Breathing
*I love this song! Yeah, 'nuther 4.5 here (that last 0.5 went down because it was played to death everywhere here... but it still survived that... unlike Incubus. Hahaha!).

Sting - Fragile
Possibly the worst of Sting's solo career. 1
Incubus - I Miss You
Continues Incubus' descent into utter crapness 1
Divinyls - I Touch Myself
We need more songs like this. 4
Blonide - Atomic
Meh. Not one of my favorite Blondie songs at all. 2.5
Patti Smith - Beacuse The Night
Not really a fan of Patti Smith either, but I dig this song. 5
Snap - Rhythm Is A Dancer
I'm serious as cancer when I say this song is one of my least favorite of all time. 1
Blur - Girls and Boys
Fun. Fun fun fun! 5
Replacements - Can't Hardly Wait
One of the greatest pop songs ever written, and the pinnacle of the Replacements' history. 5
Michael Jackson - Beat It
A high point in a vastly overrated career. 4.5

'I touch myself' by the Divinyls, 'Big in Japan' by Alphaville and 'Sacrifice' by Elton John are absolutely great.
The rest I'm not too sure about.
