If anyone is interested

these bands released an astonishing amount of singles in the 80`s period

Depeche Mode
24 singles

OMD
22 singles

Duran Duran
21 singles

Tears For Fears
17 singles

Pet Shop Boys
16 singles

The Human League
15 singles

no doubt quality should always remain an issue.

Come on, there can only be one winner when a band has Rio, Girls on Film and Hungry Like The Wolf in their repertoire punk:

Weak compared with Group A's giants of The Smiths, The Cure and The Bunnymen.

Im sure compared to the giants who you mention they might appear to be weak,but there was something about these bands wasnt there.

an innocence of 80`s pop,at least they were unique and original

Whilst Hard Times / Love Action is one of the best sides of 12" single ever, Depeche Mode were so prolific and consistant in the 80's they get my vote.
