(Finished August 27th, 2023) Part 5 of The Best 80sish Synth Songs

Hello,

I like to make the joke that the best way to tell if a movie is an 80s movies is by the synth background music. A lot of time those are great synth songs, but not always. There were a lot of terrible synth songs in the 80s. It was a trend that a lot of people tried to exploit, some much better than others.

Thanks again to ranker.com for the ideas. Also thanks to Paramo de Tres Incendios Records for their Synth Pop YouTube video. Thanks for introducing to so much new music.
