Inspired by the other threads, I loved the US charts in the 80s, so lets do a vote for them. I realise that some songs were not UK hits but they are all on youtube if you dont know them.
Lionel Richie - Say You, Say Me Dionne and Friends - That's What Friends Are For Whitney Houston - How Will I Know Mr. Mister - Kyrie Starship - Sara Heart - These Dreams Falco - Rock Me Amadeus Prince - Kiss Robert Palmer - Addicted to Love Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls Whitney Houston - Greatest Love of All Madonna - Live to Tell Patti LaBelle and Michael McDonald - On My Own Billy Ocean - There'll Be Sad Songs (To Make You Cry) Simply Red - Holding Back the Years Genesis - Invisible Touch Peter Gabriel - Sledgehammer Peter Cetera - Glory of Love Madonna - Papa Don't Preach Steve Winwood - Higher Love Bananarama - Venus Berlin - Take My Breath Away Huey Lewis and the News - Stuck With You Janet Jackson - When I Think Of You Cyndi Lauper - True Colors Boston - Amanda Human League - Human Bon Jovi - You Give Love a Bad Name Peter Cetera and Amy Grant - The Next Time I Fall Bruce Hornsby and the Range - The Way It Is Bangles - Walk Like an Egyptian

Have I missed something or are you starting this in the middle of the decade instead of one of the ends? Anyway, 1986 was the year I spent more time in the USA than any other year/
