OK, I'll be honest, I'm the 1985 vote. The single one at the moment. Songs From the Big Chair is the best album here, and Close To Me the best single. 85's got the best Ferry solo album, best a-Ha album, and I'm not big on Beat Happening or Field Mice (though Emma's House is a masterpiece of a song). Basically I understand why everyone's voting 89, but 85 is more Ben friendly.
That being said, I'm terrified cuz 89 didn't touch a lot of the stuff I do love from that year and I have to face y'all later ...

The best album across either team is easily Rum, Sodomy & The Lash, but that 1989 team is more consistent (based on what I know). Will listen to what I haven't heard before I decide, could go either way.

A million Saoirse smooches for using Sepultra and Beat Happening on the same team.
Anyways yeah definitely leaning 89. Rum Sodomy and the Lash is my favorite album across both teams and I secretly love Songs from the Big Chair, but Hunting High and Low is a puzzling album pick ("Take on Me" would've done a lot more damage as a single as the album is highly inconsistent) and why why Bryan Ferry (????), haven't heard Little Desert though so will try to squeeze it in. Singles range from excellent to quite listenable to more than a bit cheesy, though I have an uncomfortable feeling there's going to be a lot of recycling which personally puts me off it a bit, but still good team regardless. 89 though is pretty consistently terrific, the great underrated Sepultra album and the always wonderful prescense of Olympia heroes Beat Happening (despite being wedged between two even more amazing albums, though still pretty ecstatic regardless) and can even accept the less-than-stellar Nirvana debut. Singles team top-to-bottom excelleance. So will still try to listen to what I haven't heard but likely 89 this round.
