Cheesiest 80's songs.

[Eumersian]

You just had to ninja me by picking the lamest 80's pop song ever, didn't you?

OT: My contribution, not only a cheesy song, but video as well.

It gets hilariously cheesy round the 3 minute mark.

True story - the girls in the video were supposed to be prostitutes, but the record label wouldn't allow that in the video, so they got turned into "dime-a-dance" girls. And there was a group dance number because EVERYONE had a group dance number in their videos at the time, so the record label naturally demanded one.

Benatar and bandmates were thrilllllleeeeddddd.

Speaking of Ms. Benatar and cheesy videos:


And, really, we can't leave out Ms. Newton-John, can we?

When I think of 80's music, this is what my mind immediately goes to.

You did the right thing. There's a level of curd resistance that only children of the 70s can withstand. We had the Brotherhood of Man and the Nolan Sisters to strengthen us.

Yeah, but the children of the 80's turned into the teenagers and twenty somethings of the 90's and we had Happy Hardcore, the hardest of cheese.

House music? The babybel of cheese. Strobe lights and 120 bpm is not a breeding ground for true cheese.

Actually...you may have a point...

Did someone say "Cheese"?

GODS yes. I just can't beat this in cheesiness.

Also, the sounds of the 80's in a single, very storied keyboard

Spoiler: For musicians

For any musicians reading this who want to use THESE very sounds if you're going for a retro angle, Native Instruments software synthesier "FM7" or "FM8" comes packed with the original Yamaha DX series Sysex data. Also, these legendary vintage boards go for about $250-300USD these days if you want the true genuine article.

It gets no cheesier than Glass Tiger.

Hahah, I was good friends with their studio engineer for a time, awhile. Great guy, maybe about 30 years my senior.
