Depeche Mode is my favorite for sure! I have nearly all their cassettes. I did have all the 20th century ones at one point, but one of them broke :(

I also like The Cure, Joy Division, Talking Heads, and Bauhaus

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.

This is hard since 80% of all my music is from this decade.ย 

Circle Jerks, 80's-era Alice Cooper-everything from the blackout albums all the way through the song "Poison", freaking Prince, Motley Crue-especially the first two albums, Judas Priest, Blondie, The Smiths, I love the first four solo albums from Ozzy Osbourne...I don't know, I feel like I'm just reeling off my favorite bands and I forgot what the topic was lol.ย

For me my favourite singer is most definitely MJ, oh and I have a soft spot for Phil Collins too!

In terms of groups, I've got a huge list (not in a particular order):

Hall & Oates

Tears For Fears

Queen

Duran Duran

Ultravox

The Police

Van Halen

a-ha

Dire Straits

Talking Headsย 

Toto

Foreigner

Fleetwood Mac (Tango In The Night is one of my favourite albums of all time!)

Genesis

The Cure

Level 42

Simple Minds

Long list I know, growing up my parents would always have either 70s or 80s music on, so I pretty much grew up with it.
