Michael Jackson is the biggest star of the 80s.....everyone knows that......he totally should've been on the top spot with 'Billie Jean'!! And by the way you didn't include groundbreaking hits like 'Bad', 'Thriller', 'Man In The Mirror', 'Smooth Criminal' etc. and how can you forget 'We Are The World'....the anthem of the 80s...!!! #WhosBad
It's interesting that 'Waiting For a Girl Like You' sold more than 'I Want to Know What Love Is'. I would have expected it to be the other way round. Both great songs though.
If this is based on the Billboard Hot 100 (which the description says it is) then the positions wouldn't have been decided by the person who made the video.
Michael Jackson's "Thriller" is the best song(and video)from the '80's. Micheal Jackson's "Beat It" comes in second. Both(or either) music videos of said songs DESTROY "Physical". I wonder what they are smoking at Billboard.
