The Romantics / "What I Like About You" 98. Bobby Brown / "My Perogative" 99. Wang Chung / "Everybody Have Fun Tonight" 100. Loverboy / "Working for the Weekend" I was hoping for more metal/rock songs than pop songs, but as the show got closer to #1 it seemed like more metal/rock songs were showing up. Overall I think the list is alright, its hard to judge the top 100 songs of anything, especially if you like most of the songs the same -------------------

	not bad for VH1's standards suppose. Guess they could have had more classical/jazz/metal/rap songs though. -------------------

	I actually watched the marathon for 5 hours last Thursday and I was disappointed at the lack of heavy metal music, but then again not many metal fans go to VH1 for anything -------------------

	Squeeze at #82 is sacrilege. "Tempted" is one of the best songs of the past 50 years, let alone in the 80s. ------------------- When we get to 20, tell me. I'm gonna throw up.

	No Iron Maiden = Not cool. GNR Twice on the list = Cool. I think I've seen that list on 'The Hits' before though, although it might have been a different one. ------------------- EXCLUSIVELY on Playstation 3!

	Where the hell is The Safety Dance? That's easily the best shitty 80's song, they can't even put together a bad list properly. -------------------

	Their rap consists of Beastie Boys, Salt N Pepa, Rob Base, Tone Loc and Young MC. That is so bleepin shitty, not having any Rakim, Kool G Rap, Big Daddy Kane is totally unacceptable. Not to mention The Symphony Vol 1 by the Juice Crew is widely regarded as one of the best rap songs ever and didn't make it. Also I MOTHER EARTH, I agree Safety Dance was the best shitty 80s song.

	The 80's was about big hair, synthesizers and bad pop music. Does anybody really expect a list made by the mainstream on a mainstream music channel to really incorporate the truly best songs of the 80's? ANd yeah, Safety Dance got snubbed. ------------------- "A great book should leave you with many experiences, and slightly exhausted.
