1. It's, like, a prayer, man. By Madonna!

2. The Gun Club wants you to hear their SEXBEAT!

3. Gimme some of that FUNKY COLD MEDINA, Tone Loc!

4. The Cars are gonna DRIVE!

5. The Future's SO BRIGHT for Timbuk 3!

6. Kajagoogoo is feeling TOO SHY! (hush, hush)

7. That bitch Madonna is back and now she's saying she's A VIRGIN

8. And finally, WORD UP makes a Cameo

The first match up was the toughest. But I love that song and it's probably the best Madonna has ever looked to me. Match up 5 was the only other tricky one.
