The eighties had many good songs, some of which rightly achieved cult status.
But there are certainly some that weren't so good.
I would be interested to know what you think is the worst or most horrible song from that time.
For me, the worst was Opus – Live is life. It must have been high in the charts back then, but it was unbearable for me.

Loading...Hi, here are a few bullet points. It's not much, but I hope you can help me. The song is rather slow and mystical. It's still in the synth genre, with a constant beat. Must be from the '80s. It's sung by a woman whose voice is similar to Blondie's (a bit deeper). The song…
What topics can you take in 9th grade? I play the trumpet, can I do something about it? Thanks for the answers ❤
Hey, So, Chase Atlantic is coming back to Germany in 2025, and I wanted to ask if there's an age limit? My friend said it's only for people over 21…
Because the world used to be slower and not so greedy 🤔
I'm organizing a metal concert in a small hall. The bands have already been confirmed and I have to take care of the backline, so what kind of backline do I need because there's a lot involved.
From 1988:
This dog’s owl!

He was officially named one of the worst songs!
Curiously, I also know a bunch of people who love this song and comfort you when you’re sad. Fully counterproductive !^^
Thank you for the Golden Star 🙂
This reminded me of the WhatsApp Postings of my colleagues……
I Love Rock N Roll
The song is just so annoying, I hate it now.
The song seasons of the Puhdys.
Is of 82 and is right, really bad… 😆
Got something from a student band.
And that of a band that has really good songs… But “we can also NDW” hasn’t worked sooo now. 😅
Oh, great fun. NDW is really special. There are really bad things, but also really good things. 😊
I learned what NDW is yesterday. I’ll listen to you.
With “Live Is Life” I am also for a ban on playing and broadcasting.
The joke on this live recording: It should be played as a new piece at a concert and recorded at the same time. The audience didn’t know the song yet. But some Honk screwed up the recording, and that’s why the band played the piece as “addition” a second time so that the part still got on the tape.
It’s a shame, you could’ve missed it.
But also not to despise: Last Christmas
Every year, the shit is played million times on the radio. It’s not even a Christmas song.
According to Google, Last Christmas is about 40 years old. And it’s true that the song has nothing to do with Christmas.
My Top 3 of the Worst Songs from the 80s (there are even more):
Bruce & Bongo: “Geil”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=03FnBFscMVM
Mini Pigs: “The cow”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ql-zcpaCqE
The Winners: “Go for gold”

Opus was an Austrian band, the song may be annoying in the long run, but I can’t find it really bad. That’s at least mood music. Dieter Bohlen actually goes.
What I find unpleasant are many percussions and folk stuff, because the 80s were often particularly bad, exemplarily I call “Arrivederci Claire” from the actually sympathetic Andy Borg. The song is just bad, I think.

In addition, such typical songs, which have been heard too often on the radio for decades, are so eagerly softeners from the early 80s. Even “99 balloons” I find only exhausting and even if Albano Carrisi is a first-class singer: “Felicita” is annoying and is such a candidate where I turn off the radio.

Also the videos in here…
Hiiiilfee!
I don’t think so badly, remembering the Italian grandparents of a friend, that’s going up and down, all of them. 😂 At Claire I am completely out, oh my God….
Some songs from them are great, so from 1987 and “Makassar”, they had other producers. But that was just too cheesy from the sound.
Since Da von Trio is so bad that he is unfortunately already cult…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCdNmkjd6qg
That’s not bad, that’s NDW. That’s all right.
The worst for me is Last Christmas by Wham, just followed by Cherie, Cherie Lady by Modern Talking.
Unique of the song Da-da-da, by Trio.
Oh, man, right. Just listened in and had to laugh. The other song from them is worse, something with me, let me out, turned off right away.
Bird of the night of Stephan Remmler solo is even more cruel.
The distorted voice has caused fear to me as a student.
Stephan Remmler on the success of Trio: “Art is to fall below a level people assume that you don’t have it anyway.”
Minimalism and wickedness at the same time. Sometimes it gets rewarded.
That was Remmler solo, he distorted his own voice.
I remember a video of the song with a colored background singer who moved the lips to the distorted voice, that was very funny.
Oh, man, who were these men? Bad…
Last Christmas. And that shit’s the worst thing that’s gonna be played every year.
“Self Control” by Laura Branigan
Rock me amadeus
Have fun!

He’s so bad he’s actually cult again.
All about Modern Talking
I be looking for freedom David Haselnuss
I find everything from Modern Talking and other things from Dieter Bohlen the worst. You don’t need to call a song, because it sounds the same anyway. I wonder how Bohlen only managed to fill countless albums with a song.
I could dig through the head regularly at Come on Eileen by Dexy’s Midnight Runners … 🤮
I found it a cool number. https://youtu.be/6BODDyZRF6A
Yes, so different are the tastes … 🤷 ♂️
Opus, Wham, NDW… “Swan King” by Karat, “When I continued…”
At that time it was also made of stick, aitken, waterman “Stop Aitken-Waterman!”
