Nah...my favourite would definitely have to be
KRAFTWERK!!
OK, they're more late-70's, but they paved the way for many electronic bands to come in the 80's. ;D

1983 July Tour de France
1986 October Musique Non Stop

1987 February The Telephone Call
1989 The Mix
Note: they cancelled the "Tour de France" full-length :'(
much to the frustration of fans worldwide. TDF was
one of their all time best songs. Kraftwerk did release an updated TDF single this year, and a full-length called "Tour de France," which is OK, but I can't imagine it's as good as the one they deprived us of in 1984!
Other Deutsche pop of the '80s:
Nina Hagen (Hagen das ist gut!!)
Einsturzende Neaubauten (going strong still)
Die Toten Hosen
Peter Schilling
Nena
DAF
Falco (does Austria Count?)
Yello (How about Switzerland?)
Helloween (bad metal)
Accept (Balls to the Wall metal)
Herbert Gronemeyer (The Peter Gabriel of Germany)
Die Krupps
Trio (Da Da Da future Volkswagen jingle rock)
