'Where's My Mind' by the Pixies - the sound of the birth of Grunge
'F*ck the Police' - N.W.A. - the sound of Gangster rap being born
Those were probably the big genre-defining songs of the decade, both being released in the late 80s.
The early and mid 80s had many important singles, but perhaps not as influential as these two.
