Hall & Oates’ most danceable hit from the ’80s.

It was played so often at discos and clubs that many people probably can’t help but start moving when they hear it.

It’s a great track to sing along to and let loose while dancing.

If I had to name an artist from the ’80s who left a strong impression, it would be Rick Astley.

The gap between his looks and his voice was incredible and really shocked me.

His singing voice is excellent, and many of his songs are catchy, pop numbers that are very easy to sing along to, so I especially recommend him.

Cry ToughPoison

The debut single released in 1986 by Poison, an American glam metal band active from the 1980s to the 1990s.

The track carries a message of never giving up on your dreams even in tough times, and it became a hit in the UK and other countries.

Hard to Say I’m SorryCHICAGO

Chicago – Hard To Say I’m Sorry (stereo sound)
Hard to Say I'm SorryCHICAGO

It’s a classic hit from the ’80s.

I remember listening to it a lot while studying for exams.

The melody is calm and mellow, so it should be easy to sing if you adjust the key.

Why not give it a try while soaking in the nostalgia?

It’s a hit song by Culture Club, led by Boy George.

You could say it’s one of the defining tracks of the ’80s.

The key isn’t high, so my impression is that it’s surprisingly easy to sing.

The lyrics aren’t difficult either, so I recommend it as a good entry point for English-language music.
