    3. Stones
    4. I know this song, but can’t think of the band’s name
    7. Whitney Houston
    11. Frankie Goes To Hollywood

    Can you tell I had very selective taste in the 80s? No hair bands, and towards the mid-80s way more of an emphasis on r&b and what’s now considered old skool rap ;-)

    15. No idea ~ but the song “You Better Love Somebody” by Rick Springfield is now playing over and over in my head.

  5. Colleen Gleason says:

    You gals rock!

    Great going.

    Hints: #2 is a well-known duo from the ’80s.

    #14 is a one-hit wonder band.

    And, yes, Devonna, I loved Eddie & the Cruisers.

    And, I hate to say it, but “I’m On Fire” is the only Springsteen song I like. (Sorry Cosmic. Sorry Tammy.)

  6. Kerry says:

    I think #2 is Eurythmics.

    No idea about #14.

    I could hear most of these playing in my head, but did’t have a real clue who sang them.

  7. Sparky Duck says:

    eh hem Gals?

  8. Colleen Gleason says:

    Guys! I mean, gals and GUYS!

    Sorry Sparky.

    *slithering away*

  9. Colleen Gleason says:

    Okay, since a bunch of you are probably watching the election results, I’ll give up the last two answers:

    #2 is the Eurythmics

    #14 is Autograph

    Devonna got most of them! Congrats!
