I need as many 80's songs as I can think of. I have been making a compilation because in a few months I'm moving across the country and instead of flying, I'm driving. I don't want to deal with the radio stations so I'm making the CD's. So far I have 15 CD's with about 18 songs on each one, and I want to make more CD's but I feel like I'm scraping at the bottom of the barrel >:(. I think of a song during the day and forget it later. I already have a wide variety of songs but I want to make it bigger. Any lists?

"Animation," "Sensoria," "I Want You" by Cabaret Voltaire

"Rerun," "Take One," and "First In/First Out" by Front 242

"Louise," "No Words," "A Day" by Clan Of Xymox

"Eight Miles High," "More Than This," and "Like A Hurricane" by Roxy Music

"Der Mussolini," "Der Rauber Und Der Prinz," and "Kebabtraume" by D.A.F.

"Fall Apart," "Come Before Christ And Murder Love," "Golden Wedding Of Sorrow" by Death In June

"Fools," "If You Want," and "See You" by Depeche Mode

"Quiet Life," "Nightporter," and "Methods Of Dance" by Japan

"Standing in the Rain", by The Cowboys

Whoa Jamie! How long did it take you to think of all those!?! I'm not surprised you repeated yourself a couple of times after recalling practically every song from the 80s!

But I saw no Smiths, tut tut ;D  :D  ;)

I am thanking Jamie a thousand times today, I think that I maybe thanking Jamie for each song! Still, I could get two or three CDs out of that list easily! Thank you!!! Really appreciate it.  ;D And Criz, don't worry, I have plentyof Smiths songs on my Cds, I could never leave them out!

Why not just check out the top 100s and pick from there?  That's 1000 songs potentially rite there!
