1986 Pop Songs by Artist and Lyric

I want to bring attention to a major discovery. I have done meticulous and peer-reviewed scientific research that has definitively concluded that 1986 is the best year for music ever. Given the artist and a lyric from each song, guess the song titles.
All songs were either released, hit #1, or were in a movie in 1986.

1986 is the best year ever, but there are lots of other good years, especially in the 80s. I'll make it a series!
