1980 - Your favorites of the number 1 hits (VOTE FOR FIVE SONGS)

[KevShmev]

Here is another fun idea I had for an 80s thread. We will pick our favorites for each year of the 1980s, with everyone getting five votes per year.  The two with the most votes will advance to the finals, and once we've done every year, we will have 20 songs left, and then we can go from there.  This should be fun.  I will do two years per day, meaning we will be down to our 20(-ish...if there is a tie for 2nd, we can just let each song advance) by later next week, and then we can start the finals fun.  I am also going to keep these threads in GMD, since traffic is much higher here than in the Polls section, plus much discussion can be had as well. 

Note: if a song was number 1 in two years (like in December of one year and January of the next), I will feature it only in the first year it was number 1. 

The ultimate goal: to see what DTF's favorite number 1 song of the 1980s is.

Here we have the choices for 1980.

YOU CAN VOTE FOR FIVE SONGS.

[King Postwhore]

Since I can't read lol I picked Coming Up. Some fun songs on this list.

[KevShmev]

Read the text all in caps.

I voted for the two Queen songs, MJ, Floyd and Lennon.

[Train of Naught]

I think this would be better off in the P/S section to be honest.

The only ones I know are Another One Bites the Dust and Another Brick in the Wall. I hate ABitW so I'll just vote for Another One Bites the Dust and leave my other 4 votes open if that's alright.

[splent]

I love upside down and apparently I'm the only one

[Kwyjibo]

Queen 2x, Pink Floyd and Billy Joel.

This again shows that it's not necessarily the number 1 hits that are best and endure the test of time.

Are those number 1s based on American charts?

[RoeDent]

Rupert Holmes (really been into that song lately), Pink Floyd, Blondie, Billy Joel and Queen Dust.

[SwedishGoose]

Nice idea for a poll... don't remember all of these songs

Queen, Pink Floyd and Billy Joel got my votes... the fifth vote was blank

[jakepriest]

Pina Colada followed by Queen.

[jjrock88]

Pink Floyd followed by the Queen tracks

[KevShmev]

I had never seen the Coming Up video before, but after checking it out, holy crap, that was funny as hell.

Seems like kind of a joke song, and it's hard to believe it went to number 1, but that video is money.

[Outcrier]

Rock With You, Call Me, Funkytown, Another Brick and Bites the Dust.

[Calvin6s]

I got it down to these 6:
Rock with You - Michael Jackson
Call Me - Blondie
Funkytown - Lipps Inc.
It's Still Rock & Roll to Me - Billy Joel
Upside Down - Diana Ross
(Just Like) Starting Over - John Lennon

Then I eliminated Upside Down simply because I had to.

[CharlesPL]

Another Brick in The Wall, Part II - Pink Floyd

[wolfking]

Both Queen, PF, Blondie, MJ.

[hefdaddy42]

Escape
Do That to me One More Time
Crazy Little Thing Called Love
It's Still Rock N Roll To Me
Another One Bites the Dust

[Prog Snob]

Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2
Another One Bites the Dust
Crazy Little Thing Called Love
It's Still Rock n Roll to Me

[Calvin6s]

Request:  Have a showdown between all the 80s songs with 0 votes so we can determine the absolute worst #1 hit of the 80s according to DTF.

[KevShmev]

Advancing to the next round:

Another Brick in the Wall, Part II - Pink Floyd
Another One Bites the Dust - Queen
