These are the greatest songs of 1985 of all genres. I spent a few hours today finding these songs from all genres. 1985 was a pretty big year for me, it was the year that I graduated from Woods Cross High School. Wildcats!! I also worked at Safeways at that time. Then that Fall I left home for the first time to go to Ricks College in Rexburg, Idaho. I think I might still be on academic probation at what now is Brigham Young-Idaho. That's okay as I eventually graduated from the University of Utah in 1987. My first brush of college honestly was a struggle for me. I somehow survived and it eventually turned out to be a great experience for me. It was a time for firsts for me.
Now here are the greatest songs of 1985. If a song was released as a single I went with that year year as a release date. Some of these songs were released on a CD in 1984, but weren't released as a single until 1985. I counted those as a song from 1985. Those songs with a number are where that song ended on the Year End Chart of 1985. These songs are in alphabetical order by artist. If a song from 1984 charts high enough in 1985 that it's ranked in the Top 100 I will include that as a 1985 song.
Dio "Hungry For Heaven":
Dio "Shoot Shoot":
8) Dire Straits "Money For Nothing":
Dire Straits "So Far Away":
Dire Straits "Walk of Life":
Dream Academy "Life In A Northern Town":
35) Duran Duran "A View To A Kill":
36) Duran Duran "Wild Boys":
Sheena Easton "Strut":
100) Sheena Easton "Sugar Walls":
Erasure "Heavenly Action":
After doing some further research I realized this song wasn't actually released until April, 1986. But I'm going to keep it here as it's already posted. Erasure "Oh L'amour":
Erasure "Who Needs Love Like That":
Eurythmics "There Must Be An Angel (Playing With My Heart)":
Eurythmics "Would I Lie To You":
This song was all over 1985, I'm not sure how it didn't finish in the Top 100 songs of that year.
Falco "Rock Me Amadeus":
