Multiple outlets are publishing lists of the best songs of the 1980s, with some lists including specific songs such as "Feed Me With Your Kiss" by My Bloody Valentine and "The Body of an American" by The Pogues. The lists vary in length, with some outlets ranking the top 200 songs, while others have longer lists, including one with the top 850 songs. The lists appear to be part of a broader effort to recognize and rank the best music of the decade.
