Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) [1983]
Soft Cell - Tainted Love [1981] (cover)

nostalgia, joy, freedom, loss, love, expression, so on.

I really like their sound and simplistic nature.

Videos, if someone interested, here & here. I can live without them, for me the songs live on.

Mariyln Manson has made covers of both these songs. Might be worth a listen.

The synths used in these songs sound very different than anything before or after because they use hybrid chips with digitally controlled analog circuits that for the most part aren't made any more. (They still are for military purposes.)

The last one in a mass produced computer was the SID chip in the Commodore 64 & Commodore 128 by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Yannes of Ensoniq fame. A modern high end PC sound card may be clocked as high as 192KHz. The digital part of the Commodore 64 SID chip was clocked at over 1MHz = 5 to 6x faster than a modern PC and the oscillators ran full analog. That was back in 1982.

Modern synth chips evolved from the Atari digitally controlled digital sample chips originally designed by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay_Miner of Atari & Amiga fame and still exhibit some digital artifacts even decades later but are much cheaper to produce.
