Who’s your favourite '80s pop star or group?
The '80s are a decade that doesn’t always get the respect it deserves.
So, after a recent discussion on @popheads, I’ve decided to reach out and see who some of your favourites are, and why?
I’ll kick off the thread with Janet… Ms. Jackson, if you’re nasty.
Why?
This speaks for itself:
Probably Depeche Mode. I’m a sucker for synthpop and they’re one of the essential acts in that genre. Just Can’t Get Enough is an iconic track and I appreciate how they went for darker songwriting during their career. Never Let Me Down Again is also a great track. They would go on to influence some of my favourite synthpop acts too, namely CHVRCHES.
