I can't narrow it down to one, so i'll mention a few :

1) Money for Nothing - Dire Straits
2) Still haven't found what i'm looking for/With Or Without You - U2
3) Sweet Dreams - Eurythmics
4) Addicted To Love - Robert Palmer (One of the sexiest music videos ever)
5) Sledgehammer - Peter Gabriel
6) Once In a Lifetime - Talking Heads
7) Every Breath You Take - The Police
8 - In the Air Tonight - Phil Collins

and just for fun :

9) Our Lips Are Sealed - Go-Go's
10) Walk Like An Egyptian - Bangles (Sorry, but what red-blooded American male can take his eyes off of Susanna Hoffs ?)

So many great tracks in here already posted. I was 16 in 1985 and really didn't like most of the pop music and rock hair bands(late 80's) that ruled the decade. I really prefer the 70's and 90's music. Still, there are some amazing tunes associated with the teen years, of course :)

I'll post three.

My very first concert in 1983. I was mesmerized.



Pretty much describes my first two years of high school which was a miserable experience. Also the first Rush song i learned to play on drums....practice makes perfect when you have no friends, no girlfriend and aren't invited to parties, Lol.



Nothing sentimental, just a kick ass tune that fires me up.
