'Last Christmas' - Wham! 'Do They Know it's Christmas' - Band Aid (yep!) 'Fairytale of New York' - Pogues and Kirsty MacColl
I also quite like 'Stop the Cavalry' - Jona Lewie

Another good one: Bob Seger's rendition of Little Drummer Boy, my favorite version of that tune.
Was Barry Manilow's Because It's Christmas released in the 80s, for the record? If so, that would also merit inclusion.

"Fairytale of New York" is one of the best Christmas songs ever.

Bob Seger's version of The Little Drummer Boy
Wham--Last Christmas (I hate the Glee version--I know a lot of people like it but I hate it)
Run DMC--Christmas in Hollis
Ray Charles--That Spirit of Christmas (so it may not have been released in the 80s, IDK, but it was in Christmas Vacation)
