I need some good up-beat 80s songs. I really like Talking Heads and Duran Duran, but I really can't find anymore of their songs. Please list ANY suggestions you have. Thanks a bunch!

off the top of my head, here are some upbeat 80's artists to investigate:
Tom Tom Club (side project of two Talking Heads members)
The Culture Club
The English Beat
Squeeze
Rockpile
Elvis Costello (specifically, "My Aim is True")
Nick Lowe
Devo
Men at Work
some more adventurous 80s music:
Laurie Anderson (specifically, the album "Mister Heartbreak", still avant garde 25 years late)
enjoy

Cold Chisel, ACDC, Eric Clapton. Try doing a google search for "best 80's songs" or something. Or, ask your parents!
