favourite cheesey 80's rock/pop track?

Cheesy video but damn.. Dio’s ‘Holy Diver’ was actually an album with balls.

I’ll have to give a shout out to Depeche Mode here.
The whole Violator album is pure ear candy to me. “Never Let Me Down Again”, “Blasphemous Rumours”, “But Not Tonight” and lots of others are pretty addictive as well…

I was just spinning my Venom ‘Black Metal’ LP and while they were obviously meant to be very tongue in cheek I think they could be added here as well. “Teacher’s Pet” gets me chuckling every time. Their first 3 albums as a whole are pure classics IMO.

Dammit, I wish I could post vids…

You're right... even mostly good decades can be tainted by cheese...

"Owner of a Lonely Heart" by Yes. I'm not
sure why I enjoy this song so much. I guess
the chorus is just too damn catchy.

Just about any Starship track will do.

From Jefferson Airplane to.... bad 80s glam pop. All for the sake of extra digits at the end of their damn paycheck.
