Well, you're in a minority of 2 then. Toyah was fantastic in her heyday.
I have several favourites but mainly The Beat, The Police, UB40 and Madness. Human League were one of the greatest New Romantic bands but for me it would have to be Depeche Mode.

The best band of the 80s is without a doubt The Pixies - fantastic songs and two of the most distinctive voices in Frank Black and Kim Deal.
The Cure are a close second.

My favorite group ever are Queen, but they were 70's & 80's, but if it has to be soley 80's then it would have to be Level 42. Some great hits were produced by that group. Mark King was excellent on base guitar & had a cracking voice.

The Smiths were the best band of the eighties, only because The Clash don't count (or do they, what are the rules? How can I say without doubt? I'm confused now.)

I'd pick New Order over Human League.
