80s synth-pop tunes

Some of the stuff posted on here.

I mean seriously in what universe are Level 42, Wham and Mike and the Mechanics classified as 80s synth-pop?
I don’t know what the OP had in mind, but to me it wouldn’t be that. If it’s literally any tune from the 80s with a synth on, we’ll be here forever, because 90% of them did. I think the 80s electronica sound is quite well understood, to my mind anyway.

Last hour some brilliant stuff posted though :-)

The double A-side Wham I posted is listed as synth-pop on wiki and is also described as this by others. I was unsure myself so posted it as a bit tongue in cheek.
