These overplayed 80s songs might get on your nerves occasionally. However, if you were a teenager in the 80s, I bet you played these tunes until your cassette tape or vinyl record ran thin. And maybe you still find yourself hitting \u201creplay\u201d today.<\/p>\n
\u201cWake Me Up Before You Go-Go\u201d by Wham! (1984)<\/p>\n
I\u2019ll admit, I wasn\u2019t quite born in the 1980s. However, after I first heard this song in the 2001 comedy Zoolander (you know, the freak gasoline fight accident scene), I was addicted. This was actually the song that introduced me to Wham! and eventually George Michael\u2019s solo stuff. It\u2019s such an addicting pop tune. And teens in the 80s loved it as much as adults, if not more.<\/p>\n
\u201cWake Me Up Before You Go-Go\u201d was a smash hit upon its release. The dance-pop classic peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, among others.<\/p>\n
\u201cMickey\u201d by Toni Basil (1982)<\/p>\n
There was no avoiding this earworm new wave bubblegum pop tune from 1982, and teens definitely enjoyed playing it on repeat.<\/p>\n
Technically a one-hit wonder, Toni Basil had quite the hit on her hands with \u201cMickey\u201d. This super addicting song was actually originally released by the pop group Racey back in the late 1970s. However, Basil put a new wave spin on it that made it a massive hit. \u201cMickey\u201d peaked at No. 1 on the Hot 100 and No. 2 on the UK Singles chart. Sadly, Basil would never make it to the Top 40 of either chart again.<\/p>\n
\u201cKarma Chameleon\u201d by Culture Club (1983)<\/p>\n
