The B-52's Rock, and Weird al and anyone he's parodied!

Queen and Wham! are my favs!

currently very into orchestral manoeuvres in the dark (omd), but i also like (and i know a good chunk of the bands i'm about to list were formed before the 80s but i'm adding them if they were associated with that period in general) bad religion, depeche mode, minor threat, fugazi, the clash, kraftwerk, operation ivy, blondie, talking heads, tears for fears, new order, erasure, and probably some other stuff i'll think of later.
