But Magic said nothing about this being her most overrated list.

From this list I only like 3 songs.

Well you've got me beat. I'm still trying to decide whether I even recognize three songs.

Hey, I cant help it if I like this stuff.........Would you like to see my top country songs of the 80's?

Magic- I liked the majority of your list.I am glad to see Night Ranger on it but I would replace Sister Christian with Don't Tell Me You Love Me or (You Can Still) Rock In America
Also glad to see some .38 Special on there.

(You Can Still) Rock in America--such a seriously bad-assed song. I CRANK the tune in my car on 4th of July (which is coming up, yay!). And yes, Don't Tell Me You Love Me is one of the few emotive hard rock songs of that tempo. VERY few rock songs that are up-tempo can come across as emotional (except for, perhaps, angry).

Well you've got me beat. I'm still trying to decide whether I even recognize three songs.

Here's the 3 I like. I could easily live without the rest.

All You Zombies - Hooters
Redemption Song - Bob Marley & The Wailers
Dear God - XTC (Sarah M. did a better version)
