Wow, I have waaay too many to list. I'll name mainly the artists.

I liked many of Madonna's older hits (Open Your Heart, Cherish, and a few others), Michael Jackson (Thriller, Beat It..), Metallica (though I can't forgive them for the Napster thing), the Temptations, oh and many others.

What is Retro,
I personally consider songs from the 50's to be retro.

My favorite genra is Classic Rock so I am regularly listening to Music that was created in the Mid 60's to early 80's My favorite Classic Rock song is "Atom Heart Mother" from Pink Floyd

When I hear the term Retro I think of Jerry Lee Lewis or Elvis.

"Take On Me" by a-ha, a brilliant and awe-inspiring masterpiece.

Though I think a-ha in general is a wonderful group both back then and now, and has far more to them than the aforementioned song that has unfortunately become their lone hit.

I doubt that 80's is retro but I don't really care for stuff from the 50's, 60's and 70's. I Love so many songs from the 80's because they really defined a "retro" time.
Some of my personal favorites are:

-Break My Stride
-Walking On Sunshine
-Touch
-Dare
-Lion's rendition of the Transformers themesong :bloogrin
-Ghostbusters
-Don't Worry Be Happy
-Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
-I'll Supply The Love
-What a Feeling
-The Boys are Back in Town (this could be a 90's song, I'm not sure)
-Highway to the Dangerzone (same as above)
-Heat of the Momant

Sorry for the long list but all those are some of my favorite retro songs. Sigh... I miss the eighties...
