3. Stones
4. I know this song, but can't think of the band's name
7. Whitney Houston
11. Frankie Goes To Hollywood

Can you tell I had very selective taste in the 80s? No hair bands, and towards the mid-80s way more of an emphasis on r&b and what's now considered old skool rap ;-)

You gals rock!

Great going.

Hints: #2 is a well-known duo from the '80s.

#14 is a one-hit wonder band.

And, yes, Devonna, I loved Eddie & the Cruisers.

And, I hate to say it, but "I'm On Fire" is the only Springsteen song I like. (Sorry Cosmic. Sorry Tammy.)

I think #2 is Eurythmics.

No idea about #14.

I could hear most of these playing in my head, but did't have a real clue who sang them.

Okay, since a bunch of you are probably watching the election results, I'll give up the last two answers:

#2 is the Eurythmics

#14 is Autograph

Devonna got most of them! Congrats!
