Guess the hit song from the 80's! In this music quiz you are presented with 40 hit songs from the 1980's. Can you get them all? Let me know how you did in the comments :)
This is the third quiz in the 80's series and the difficulty is set to hard. That doesn't mean that the songs are unknown, but it might be harder to remember song name and band compared to the easy and mixed difficulty.
Be sure to check out the other 80s music quizzes as well:
EASY: • BIG HITS OF THE 80s | ...
MIXED: • BIG HITS OF THE 80s | ...
And don't forget; If you are a fan of music quizzes and trivia, please consider subscribing to the channel as I'm posting new videos EVERY TUESDAY and FRIDAY.
Note that some of the songs may have been released earlier, but I included them since they made the charts in 1980.
Thanks for watching and best of luck!

As someone who listened to American Top 40 every week in the 1980s, this wasn't hard at all. 40/40.😄

Who ever you, you do know you 80's music as well as you think you because Rupert Homes song was not an 80's song because it was release in Billboards top 100 chart in the summer of 1979.

Just to knit-pick, John Mellencamp was going by John Cougar at the time of "Jack and Diane". No Mellencamp involved yet. Otherwise nicely done.

26/40. I have to admit I expected to get a better result as I think of myself as someone who know 80's and 70's music quite well. Some of the songs just slipped out of my mind. But some I heard for the first time in my life. Guess it's aimed more towards American audience as I'm convinced some of the songs are barely known in Europe (it works both ways so there are plenty of songs who are considered big hits by Europeans and are not very known in the US).

Yeah, it's one of those songs that straddle over 2 decades by being released so late in the last year of one decade. Like "Smooth" by Santana/Rob Thomas which was released in Dec. of 1999, so it manages to wind up on some 2000's lists
