[Villavic]

There were lot of new bands in the 80s. Thompson Twins, Culture Club, Debarge, Pet Shop Boys, Pretenders, Bangles, Eurhythmics, Duran Duran, OMD, U2. We may include The Police too, though appeared in the late 70s, it was part of the new 80s rock/pop groove. What was your favorite pop band?

Mine would be Thompson Twins and Pet Shop Boys.

You can mention singers too, like Madonna, Cyndi, Whitney, Adam Ant, Paul Young, Prince, and even Tina Turner and Michael Jackson, cause I think their solo career took off in the 80s.
