My top 100 songs of 1981

[@lucasmateus4929]

80's is magic

There are several songs here that I haven't heard before, that's why I like listening to this kind of collections, cause I know unknown songs or I remember old sonsg that I have forgotten.

[@javiiwilliams851]

Damn copyright !!!! Anyway, thanks for re-uploading your top 100 videos !!!

Great compilation.Fortunately you’ve posted a few more. So many memories of my twenty first year on the planet. I wish they could all be this good.

[@STONE-wh2en]

I loved finding among your favorites the song "Lança perfume", by Rita Lee (unfortunately, she died last year). Congrats for the video.

My All-Time fav song: "In the air tonight"..........

[@ronnykretzschmar809]

Fantastic!!!

Great list 💯👌

[@itallia666]

Im a total music freak going back to the mid 1960's but 30% of these songs are french or really obscure bands/artists ive never heard of. Im English & most of the best bands are from the 70's & 80'slike Led Zeppelin, Free, Stones, Deep Purple, Sabbath. However some poppy pop music from the 80's was pretty good but not every track was Disco, there were other genres.

[@MrDonanthony]

Love Is In Control by Donna Summer didn't even make the top 200 on your list?

So, Rita Lee made sucess in Europe, or there was just a one hit wonder? Yep, im a brazilian btw XD. Anyway, great list! You put even "ma quale idea" :)

[@ilyaserpukhovich]

Wow!!!!!!! Pointer Sisters won!!!

[@wesleyvalk9129]

No Vienna from Ultravox? Otherwise cool list!

[@francispelletier3647]

Thanks. "Vienna" is a cool song indeed. It should have been ranked between #100 and #150 if I've made a longer list.

[@massimocometti6529]

Indeed..... but high in the list you can find the Visage with their one-shot synth-dance manifesto....... however Human League "Don't you want me" is missing (1st new-wave song to reach #1 in the charts - Nov.1981)

[@gabrielrocha6557]

Stars on 45? Must be into 10 places.

[@elalitwicka6536]

Dziękuje !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

no adam ant???

[@kidjayhawk]

Is this dude from England? So many non US hits.

[@francispelletier3647]

France

[@racketman2u]

​@@francispelletier3647 us non-Americans guessed that from your name :-) It would be interesting to see how much French and German music would be popular if everyone released English versions as well! Nina's "99 Luftballons" is the only song I can think of that crossed successfully.

[@massimocometti6529]

What about "Stars on 45"?

[@yossarian6799]

​@@racketman2u Look no further than South Africa. I grew up there and we had scores of English-language pop hits from European acts who recorded mostly in English. Acts like Bubbley (Champagne), Luv', Amanda Lear, Michael Holm, Peter Maffay, Vicky Leandros, Century, Left Side, La Bionda, Sheila & B-Devotion, Teach-In, Chilly, Goombay Dance Band, Laid Back, Keith Marshall, etc. Modern Talking and Alphaville were massively popular in the 80s and Sandra sold more records than Madonna! We even sent Silver Pozzoli "Around My Dream" to Number 1!. Curiously, Shuki & Aviva, who had an earlier hit with "Signorina Concertina" recorded an English version of "Bye Bye A Bientot" under a pseudonym (Colombus), called "Milky Ways" and it was a huge hit in South Africa (5 weeks at #1) and was the top-selling song of 1975! I will forever contend that an English version of "Je T'aime Un Peu Trop" , done by Colombus, would have been a sure-fire follow-up #1 hit!
