Well I don't know about A-Ha but the band Depeche Mode have some really good music, it is new wave not a lot of people know them but they have been around for years now. They have the song Personal Jesus (covered by Marylin Manson).

My favorite song from the 80's is T'Pau -heart and soul. Or Fleetwood Mac- tell me lies. Blondie? The go-go's, the bangles?

You can't go wrong with just about anything done by Journey, The Moody Blues, Pat Benatar, John Mellencamp, or Bruce Springsteen.

How about "Everybody Wants to Rule the World," or "Shout," by Tears for Fears, "No One Is To Blame," by Howard Jones, or "Solsbury Hill," by Peter Gabriel?
