Thirty '80s Songs You May Have Forgotten

The Grammys have us thinking about songs we love from the past. Yeah, they're dated. But people of a certain age will remember dancing to these.

1. The Armoury Show - Castles in Spain

A marginal hit from the little-known U.K. New Wave band.

2. The Belle Stars - World Domination

A pretty good ripoff of Bananarama.

3. Big Audio Dynamite - C'Mon Every Beatbox

4. Yello - I Love You

First heard this at a high school dance and thought it was so modern!

5. Blue Mercedes - Love Is the Gun

Blue Mercedes had a few radio hits in the late '80s.

6. C.C.C.P. - American Soviets

7. Real Life - Catch Me I'm Falling

I actually prefer this to "Send Me an Angel."

8. Industry - State of the Nation

One-hit wonders from Ireland.

9. File 13 - Taste So Good

This was so naughty! It was a more innocent time.

17. Soft Cell - What

18. Ministry - Work for Love

Yes, they had more songs than just "Safety Dance."
