“Don’t You Want Me” is objectively the most ‘80s song not just because it defined the sonic template for synthpop as a genre, but also because it foreshadowed a key theme of the entire decade with its lyrics about male resentment due to female careerism and financial independence (cf. every '80s movie but especially Die Hard)
