i suggest finding any 80s compilations on CD. many of those compilations lie in bargain bins at music stores so price shouldn't be a problem. your canadian i see in your profile, muchmusic has released an 80s compilation that has some great music on there. hair metal, new wave, rock, pop, this compilation runs the gamut of 80s music.

Oooh...here we go!!!!! :D

ULTRAVOX - I'd recommend just about anything, but here are a few key songs: Sleepwalk, Passing Strangers, New Europeans, Mr. X, Vienna, Reap The Wild Wind, Visions In Blue, Hymn, We Came To Dance (LP version), Cut And Run, The Thin Wall, The Voice, White China...just to name a few. I recommend their stuff from the 70's as well!

JOHN FOXX - Underpass, No-One Driving, Dancing Like A Gun, Miles Away, Walk Away, Endlessly...just about anything else!

DEPECHE MODE - Anything from the albums Speak & Spell to Black Celebration. Also: Never Let Me Down Again, Behind The Wheel, The Things You Said...

By the way, RojoP, Midge Ure's "Answers To Nothing" is not 80's, I don't think...:)

Thanks. :) Oh, and since I'm assuming you're Canadian (like me), I highly recommend songs by Rational Youth and Strange Advance as well.
