One of the greatest singers of all time brings forward his greatest collection including Bat out of Hell, Two out of Three Aint Bad and Heaven Can wait. A true classic album.

The best group of all time, forget the Beatles, Freddie could sing, Bryan was a great gurtarist, John was another and John great Drummer. This album brings forward the best of the 80s including Hammer to fall, A kind of magic, Radio Ga Ga and The Show must go on, a true classic.

The most under-rated group of all time. All the songs on this 42 massive collection are worth listening to my favourites include Telephone Line, Mr Blue Sky, Xanadu etc.

Another great album from the king of POP, first disc includes Thriller, Billie Jean and Beat It amongst others. While the second disc includes Earth Song, Scream and my personal favourite Little Sussie.

Far better than Immaculate collection two, includes classics such as Like a Virgin, Papa don't preach and Like a prayer. My only complaint is that True Blue was not included on this album and is not included on immaculate two collection.

Perhaps the best woman singer of the 1980s this is a real favourite includes classics such as girls just want to have fun, true colours, I drove all night and Time after Time.

One of my all time albums, perhaps one of the greatest albums of all time. Includes songs songs such as sometimes, blue savanaha, who needs love like that etc.

Another compilation album i'm affraid but another excellent album includes Rio amongst others, fantastic album.

I am a big follower of 80's music and it does not get much better than this with massive hits such as Manic Monday, Eternal Flame, Walk Like an Egyption and Hazy Shade of Winter.

An excellent album from this Norwegian Group, includes such 80's favourites as Take on me, The Sun Always Shines on TV and Hunting High and Low, usually listen to this album every week. Fantastic to lay back and listen to.

This album kicks ass. I love almost every song on it. Eyes Without A Face, Flesh For Fantasy, Catch My Fall, and Rebel Yell of course! It doesn't get much better than this!

What a great title for an album for 2 reasons: 1. 1984 was an awesome year, and 2. I was born in 1984. Eddie Van Halen is a guitar genius and David Lee Roth worked his magic on this one. Panama is my favorite song on this album.

This definitely has to be on my list too. This album rocks. A wonderful follow up to Pyromania.

Pyromania is Def Leppard's finest album in my book. They had Photograph, Rock Of Ages, and Foolin'. It's music to my ears.

Wow, did these boys kick some a**! When I hear Still Of The Night, or Here I Go Again, my stereo gets cranked full blast. This is an awesome album.

I LOVE Cheap Trick. They rocked it with this album with hits such as Don't Be Cruel, Ghost Town, and The Flame.

Janet is one of the first singers I ever when I was a little kid, so I had to put her on here. Control is a pretty self-explanitory album, and Janet announced SHE was in full control of her life. When I Think Of You is my all-time favorite Janet song. Excellent album.

I remember seeing Madonna on MTV when I was 5, and I loved her videos. I love the songs Papa Don't Preach, Live To Tell, and Open My Heart. I like this album better than any of the other albums Madonna had out in the 80's. It was more cheerful and much less controversial.

Oh wow man, this was Michael at his finest. There's Beat It , Billie Jean, PYT, Human Nature, and Thriller. No wonder Michael was so cool in the 80's. He was hip with the sequened glove and the moonwalk. If only he'd straighten up now!

This is Don's best work here. All She Wants To Do Is Dance, Not Enough Love In The World, The Boys Of Summer, and Sunset Grill are just kick ass songs. Sunset Grill is my favorite song by Don Henley. Crank this song up full blast. It's awesome.

One of the many infleuntial mid 80's Trash/Death bands that came out (comprised of Anthrax). This is just as good as the ones I didn't list (sorry dudes), but it has a bitchin sense of humor, so I put this one in.

The title says it all. This album started the genre and most bands say its the most important albums of their life. This one pushed the boundries of metal and is still raw and amazing as it was back in the day.

One of the most infleuntial albums of all time. Its so underated and deserves more respect. Its a pefect album!!! Topnotch instrumentals and (arguably) has the first Trash metal song make this a must own.

Kick ass album. A raw and fun attack by Lemmy and Co. Probably their best.

The second side may lack but who gives a shit!!!! This made Priest more known and amazingly its one of the best metal albums ever!!! Great guitar playing and awesome vocals make this album a classic.

In my opinion this is thier best album since its a mix of the more polished Master Of Puppets/...Justice For All, and the raw and menacing Kill em All. Awesome solos, great riffs and atmosphere, a fun and heavy album by the masters of thrash metal. Get this shit!!!!

I cant describe Randy Rhoads guitar playing. Its absolutly incredible and it will kick your ass. The music here is heavy, melodic and powerful at the same time. Ozzy sings well and writes very good lyrics which show that he is a madman. Perfect album and everone should get it at least for the greatest guitarist who ever lived RANDY RHOADS!!!! RIP: Randy Rhoads!!!!!!

This "movie band" actually got me into music so ofcourse I have to put this shit on the list. Other than that its one of the best soundtracks of all time. John Belushi can song well and Dan Aykroyd is an awesome harmonica player. Add the awesome band and cameos of legends and you have one of the best soundtracks of all time. RIP: John Belushi!!!!

Bitchin album! Infleunced about every metal band that came after. No one matched the simple riffs and jams of this album so its a masterpiece. Angus and Brians attack will tear you up.

An absolutly perfect metal album. Iron Maiden showcase their huge talent and it will kick your ass. Very infleuntial and and took metal to the next level. 666 THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST!!!!!!!

Fantastic, December and Exposed to Love really are awsome.

Nevermind the videos, the guitar playing is so tight and catching that i would be humming these tunes for days, Leggs, love it!

The King.

Another fantastic album, once in a lifetime gets me everytime!!

The first album were they wrote all there own songs and it is a blazer. Eddie and David at there best!

I dare anyone to find a bad song on this album. Syntehsizers at there best. And once again the rythum of the album jams.

The best Pop, 3 member band ever! Great song writing and the beats are so infectious!

Red Barchetta,insane beat and Tom Sawyer just cranks. Neil Peart at his absolute best.

Every song smokes on this album, amazing considering this was there first album after the death of Bon Scott. Killer right from toll of Hells Bells

Dude, the queen of pop comes out firing with her first album, Holiday, Physical Attraction & Borderline to name a few.

The best hair band album of all time, there are no weak songs on this one.

This forgotten gem is good from top to bottom and has the added bonus of tackling important social issues. Plus it rocks!

There is nothing I can say about this album that hasn't already been said by those more eloquent than me.

A few weaker songs knock this one down the list a bit, but no album has as many perfect songs on it as this one.

Trent Reznor predicted the future with this album, and he hasn't made anything this consistently high-quality since.

Definitely the most inventive album of the 80s. What other album sampled Hall & Oates and How to Speak French albums, had an orgee on it and asked the immortal question "how many times did the batmobile catch a flat?"

Some may dismiss this as just an EP, but what album was more controversial, more melodic, chose better songs to cover or had a better power ballad than "Patience."

The best band of the 80s on their most consistently good album.

There isn't a bad song on the album and there are so many party classics here that it is impossible not to have fun when this album is on.

Every song was a mega-hit or would've been if released. The album is versatile - from hard rock to power ballads to electronic influenced to pop to soul/r&b to funk - this album has it all.

The third album released by Enya in the early 90's, but the first album she made in the early 80s, therefore justified here.

One of the best bands ever producing one of the best albums ever. What was it, 5 years on top??

yeah, okay, this is a 1978 album, but it was in the 80s when I first heard it and instantly loved it. A timeless classic

Sheer class

Great Rock Songs

Great CD with Every Breath You Take on it and 3 other #1 hits

Top 3 CD Of All Time...#1 CD of the 1980's

I just got this and it's alreay a favorite; great, joyful, lively music.

Bracing, powerful, and confrontational yet still melodic(well, mostly) and fascinating.

Great guitar rock--loud, melodic, and unique. I've got some good memories associated with this one.

Another great combination: Beach Boys harmonies caught in a vacuum cleaner. Beautiful melodies violated by evil guitar noise--ahhhhh...

Beatiful harmonies and bizarre, vaguely Beefheartian lyrics ("you've been laying eggs under my skin/now they're hatching out under my skin/now there's tiny insects showing through/and all them tiny insects look like you").

There are 43 songs on this album, but I can't think of one I don't like.

This album got me through summer. "River Euphrates" took care of most of July.
