"Melt With You" would be my choice, but I'll add onto the list:

(so with you with "Come on Eileen," Bethani)

"Tempted"

"Save a Prayer" (not the most famous Duran Duran, but I think the best one)

"Born in the USA"

Oh! Oh! And "In a Big Country." LOVE that song!

Excellent choices. These all would be quintessential.

Eddie Money is the man.
