While many would expect this artist’s title track of his biggest album to be in this 1984 list. Instead, it was the album’s last track he recorded that ends up being his only song in this list (don’t worry there is next year, hehe). This was one of maybe 5-10 songs that I associated with my childhood and it was actually my introduction to this man. This track became his biggest billboard hit ever, introduced us to Courtney Cox, and it remains a classic song to this day. Coming in at #17 is Dancing In The Dark by Bruce Springsteen.
