Get ready to 'Strut' ... Top 10 guilty pleasure songs of the 1980s

OCTOBER 26, 2009

Sheena Easton. Bless her heart. We could have done a list of the Top 10 Guilty Pleasure Songs by Sheena Easton in the '80s, but we politely declined.

However, we did pick one of her hits for this week's Stuck in the '80s podcast. And -- wowsers! -- it's NOT the obvious theme song to the James Bond movie For Your Eyes Only. (Because there's nothing guilty about loving that tune!)

Instead we chose her poppy, defiant Strut for our list. And now we can't get the creepy tune out of our heads!

Get ready for nine other, guilty pleasure tunes/earworms. And remember, you can't blame Daly and I for this week's list. Each tune was picked by a SIT80s listener.

As for the rest of the show and our infamous witty banter and stories ... well, just enjoy the music. There's more guilt than pleasure to our lame exchanges this week. We need inspiration! We need a muse! We need more photos sent in from listeners wearing only Funyuns instead of a bikini. (Wink, wink.)
