The Beatles had long broken up, Disco was dead, nobody knew who shot J.R on Dallas but the pop music scene was alive and well in the 1980s! From teen sensation cover girls like Tiffany and Debbie Gibson to Canadian imports like Loverboy and Australian supergroups like The Little River Band, the 80s brought us a diverse sound of rock and pop like no other time in our history. Female artists like Taylor Dayne and Lita Ford showed that pop and hard rock could both exist on the charts together and heavy metal hair bands like Cinderella and Asia gave us guitar laced hits like "Heat of the Moment" and "Nobody's Fool" to lead the way to the Top 20. Mega hits that find their way into TV commercials today in the 2000's like Katrina's "Walking on Sunshine" and "Berlin's "You Take My Breath Away"... Less

Sony Music's three-disc Essential: The 80s collection hits mostly high notes in its quest to chronicle pop music's most polarizing decade. Being a U.K. release, the compilation draws heavily on English radio hits like "Blue Hat for a Blue Day" (Nick Heyward), "Happy Birthday" (Altered Images), and "Boxerbeat" (Jo Boxers), but there are enough international hits from the likes of Toto ("Africa"), the Bangles ("Eternal Flame"), and Ray Parker, Jr. ("Ghostbusters") to fuel 100 nostalgic late-night dance parties worldwide. ~ James Christopher Monger

As a budget-priced collection goes, EMI-Capitol Special Markets' Big Hits of the '80s is quite nice. Many budget-line collections stop at ten or 12 tracks, and occasionally contain remakes. Big Hits of the '80s doesn't skimp -- it has 20 tracks, all in their original hit versions. There might not be many surprises among those 20, but since it contains hits like "Mickey," "Centerfold, " "C'est La Vie, " "Abracadabra, " "Promises, Promises, " "Don't Dream It's Over, " "Only the Lonely, " "Never Surrender, " "Mary's Prayer, " "Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone), " "Walking on Sunshine, " "Miss Me Blind, " "Morning Train (Nine to Five)" and "Don't Shed a Tear, " it's certainly an entertaining listen that's well worth its budget price. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
