Sorry to say so, but this is a New-Wave topic, not an '80's' topic. Form the 10 tracks you mentioned (Best & Worst) only 1 0r 2 are New-Wave.

Nah, his post says 80's not New Wave.

The Rolling Stones "Rock And A Hard Place" from 1989 is the most wretched piece of garbage I've ever had the misfortune to listen to.

Also as an extra, i would like to add big hollow man by danielle dax as one of the worst. I usually enjoy almost anything new wave, but there's something about this particular song that seems annoying. Just an opinion.
