There's no such thing as 'best' in this context.

A couple of my favourites are Woman in Chains by Tears for Fears, and Absolute by Scritti Politti. I liked Def Leppard as well.

I just heard 'Life's What You Make It' by Talk Talk for the first time in ages. What a banger that was, and 'It's My Life' wasn't bad either.
