    If I was to include Talk only the top few songs in my ten would make the cut. I like Talk.

          For you to put a Drama song in that top 10 must mean you really loathe some of the other 80s songs 😉

                  It's a mostly poor pool of tracks to choose from on the whole (imho anyway) but Machine Messiah's bearable !

                  🤔

                      That’s technically true. We’re living in the 21st century even though were in the 2000s. Nonetheless, to clarify, I meant Yes songs whose release year = 198x.

                          Not their best decade to my ears. I had a difficult time coming up with ten songs from that era that meant much to me.

                            Love Conquers All is from 1990 so you have to choose the Drama songs or LCA to encapsulate a decade.

                              My bad. I’ll go with You Make it Easy as an 80’s replacement for LCA.
