Best Song of the Eighties?

I think that Crowded House and Neil Finn in particular had/have an enormous amount of talent and musicality. Someone was commenting on melodies - I don't think there is a greater melodic singer songwritere working today (and working then) than Neil Finn.

"Fall At your Feet" is just plain beautiful as is "Better Be Home Soon."

XTC was mentioned up-thread, too. One of my all-time favorites and I'd put "Black Sea" up as one of the best 80's records (even though it was released in 1980 and therefore not technically in the 80's decade) along with "Skylarking."
