Spoiler for Top 5:
5. "I Think We're Alone Now"—Tiffany (what could be more perfectly 80s than a video with concert footage from a mall?)




4. "Pour Some Sugar on Me"—Def Leppard (featuring Joe Elliott's awesome mullet, quite similar to the one I sported back then)




3. "Father Figure"—George Michael (wearing an unconvincing beard in more than one way here)




2. "Push It"—Salt-n-Pepa (unbelievably, there was once a time when "get up on this" was a perplexing turn of phrase to me)




1. "Pump Up the Volume"—M/A/R/R/S (in all honestly, still a great song even without the nostalgia factor)
I know all of those tracks by heart, and yeah I used to hang out in roller skating rinks for kids' birthday parties and such at the same time that you did. Your post is almost too familiar for words.

Yeah, uh, late-80s Belinda was one of my first sexual experiences so to speak
