My top 10, as per my iPod:
- Let's Dance (Remix) - Pastor Hezekiah Walker
- What's Up? - 4 Non Blondes
- Rebel Yell - Billy Idol
- Lady Don't Tek No - Latyrx
- So Dizzy - Rehab
- Neutron Dance - Pointer Sisters
- Genius of Love - Tom Tom Club
- Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go - Wham!
- Float On - Modest Mouse
- Surrender - Cheap Trick
Modest Mouse and Pastor Hezekiah Walker are contemporary, I guess. Genius of Love is the oldest song on the list, I believe.
