9. David Soul (his little known comeback from his 70's megastardom)
8. Milton Berle (he was so big, Ratt even appeared in his music videos)
7. Wham (the same sound I want to make with my fist against George Michael's face whenever his face appears on the TV, ironically)
6. Various DeBarge solo projects (they were all so good, it's tough to pick one)
5. Tiffany
4. Eddie Murphy
3. Eddie Rabbitt
2. Eddie Haskell (had the breakout album, "How's The Beaver, Mrs Cleaver?")
1. Apart From The Crowd

We didn't sell a lot of records, but somehow we left an impression.

Just in case you weren't just being flip [:D]:

I was gonna add Gino Vanelli but I think that's more Post Punk.
