That is an excellent question. After careful consideration, I have concluded:
Riot - Thundersteel (1988)
Both that album and its title track have been influential, for example:
Monument - Renegades (2014)

This got released in 1989. I love to hear my late beautiful precious Steve Sanders sing it so much!!

Everybody knows that "Turning Japanese" is the quintessential 80's song.

Yeah, but the Vapors were extremely British.

This would be a top contender for me as well, or maybe Billie Jean by Michael Jackson. But I really can't pick a single song as being the best American song of the 80s.

Yes, probably impossible to actually narrow it down to one. I'd probably have something by Prince in my top 5. "Radio Free Europe" also, even if I'm not the biggest REM fan.

The best? There are thousands of great 80s songs. But surely this is one of the best:
