Hall of Songs

1980! Looking to a Synthesized Future with a New Decade


Listen Later

The '80s. We did it! In this episode of Hall of Songs, we begin our journey through this turbulent decade by highlighting 12 songs that reflect the changing sound and landscape in popular music. We have old standbys like country, reggae, and arena-sized rock, but we also have more electronic-based songs from the likes of Talking Heads and Joy Division.

These are our picks for the top-12 songs of 1980. The songs join others already nominated for the Hall of Songs in our ballot. Head to hallofsongs.com to vote in our most recent election to determine the greatest songs of all-time.
