For 80's club music: The Cult's - 'She Sells Sanctuary' is about as close to dance floor nirvana as you can get.

As for pure 80's listening pleasure coming in under 4:00, I would go with either U2's - 'The Three Sunrises' or the Smith's 'Stop Me If You've Heard This One Before'

Go back to the late 70's with a slower pace in mind and it would be either The Alan Parsons Project - 'I Wouldn't Want To Be Like You' or Pink Floyd's - 'Run Like Hell'

Strictly IMHO of course..[:D]

P.S. This one falls waay outside of coop41's criteria but I'll post a link to it <a href="http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=68EABCF9347107DC" target="blank">Here</a> just the same since it happens to be one of my all time faves.

<br>Also if we go out of new wave, jethro tull aqualung. And Greenday-jesus of suburbia.

Jethro Tull... well.... that's great.

Greenday????? Greenday???? They used to be decent... but that was when I was 10... like 9 years ago. I liked them but they've sold their souls to money and not to musical composition.

Anyway... Philly.... I can't blame you for that. [;)]

Lots of rush fans here. They never sold out and did very well for themselves. I think they are true to their art form. Did I say I like rush?[:I]

Love Rush. "Red Barchetta" and "the Trees" are two perfect songs.

I suppose I'll get thrashed to within an inch of my life if I say What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong.

Not from me. I love that song. Even better: "We Have All The Time In The World".

Okay, The Human League's "Filling Up With Heaven" is another nominee for a perfect song.
