I like a lot of Phil Collins/Genesis' songs. "Invisible Touch", "In The Air Tonight", "In Too Deep" and "You Can't Hurry Love" are my favorites from them.
Other 80's favorites include:
With Or Without You
Heaven Is A Place On Earth
God Bless The USA
Make Me Lose Control
Hungry Eyes
You're The Inspiration

I started to listen to hit music on an active basis back in 1982/83. Some of my favourites include Bonnie Tyler - Total Eclipse Of The Heart Heart - These Dreams Starship - Sara Falco - Rock Me, Amadeus Steve Winwood - Back In The High Life Again Genesis - In Too Deep (plus the whole Invisible Touch Album) White Lion - When The Children Cry and... Richard Marx - Right Here Waiting (my top favourite) That's why I liked AT40 Flashback very much  |

Well, I would have to start with:
You Give Love a Bad Name
Here I Go Again
The Final Countdown
Most songs on the Top 40 from September 1985-December 1985.
U2-The Joshua Tree
There are others, but these are the ones that come to mind the most.
