Please vote below
@HannahHowe This is where the European and American things get mixed up, because I absolutely don't think of Born to Run as a 1980s song.
One of the hardest things for me in general is when I love a band but absolutely don't think if a particular hit, like Money for Nothing, as their best. So when I don't vote for a particular song, I get a brief glimmer of regret, a feeling of disloyalty.
@geographile In Britain, Born to Run was a hit in the 1980s, cashing in on Springsteen’s popularity.
I like Dire Straits, but Money for Nothing isn’t one of my favourites.
