In the 80's in general, a significant percentage of the "regular pop" hits got lots of club play because they were danceable. For example:
The Romantics - What I Like About You

On the other hand, there were plenty of 80's tunes that were obviously club-oriented, for example:
Yaz - Situation

I did tons of clubbing in the 80's; music-wise, it was all good.

Love Yaz!
Another good example of mainstream hitting the clubs was the single version of She Bop by Cyndi Lauper from 1984
