A current favorite. (Not sure if the video is any good...)

'80s music is my favorite! All of these are solid, but your Rickroll at the end reminds me of my favorite Astley track - the underappreciated, very catchy 1987 hit "Together Forever:"

Just speaking in terms of videos, because if we're just talking songs I can't be as succinct. I could make this list longer, too, but I'll keep it to just these two. With the Cars, You Might Think as a third if I were to add it :)

This one will always be mine in terms of innovative artistic expression when it comes to 80s videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJWJE0x7T4Q&list=PLEcjI0AU6TaawO9GZKkEZWNaplgpWIwPA&index=99

And this one, because it's one of the earliest videos that I remember seeing. We didn't have cable in my house as soon as everyone else did so I had to stay up late to watch Friday Night Videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSaC-YbSDpo&list=PLEcjI0AU6TaawO9GZKkEZWNaplgpWIwPA&index=42

And, I loved Rick Astley in the 80's!
