The DeuxDuel 80s Synth-Pop lineup
16 songs · 5 artists · 1981–2007 · listed A–Z, not ranked
What this list is
DeuxDuel draws from 16 songs when it builds a 80s Synth-Pop matchup. Two of them appear side by side, you play a 30-second preview of each, and you pick the one you would rather hear. Every track here is a real Apple Music catalogue song, hand-picked for this category — not pulled from a streaming chart — and voting needs no music subscription.
The order below is alphabetical by artist. It is not a ranking and does not imply one.
No ranking is published for 80s Synth-Pop yet. DeuxDuel only publishes a chart once a category has real head-to-head evidence behind it, so this page shows the lineup and nothing more. How the ranking works.
