I have fond memories of 'breakfast' myself...

Some that come to mind (trying to stick to reasonably well-known songs here):

Propaganda -- the duel
Front 242 -- Welcome to paradise
The Pixies -- Gigantic
Ramones -- Rock 'n Roll High School

Re: What is the best 80s song ever?

Human League: Together in Electric Dreams. It was in a compilation I taped off the radio, and the tape practically lived in my Walkman. I used to slip on the headphones and listen to it in bed. If you're asking for a song that brings back my memories of the 80s, that one does possibly more than any other, although there are loads more.

"Drive" by The Cars, "With or Without You" by U2, "Alone" by Heart, "Through the Barricades", by Spandau Ballet, yep the 80s were good for ballads
