Plus, if they were released today—they would most likely still be chart toppers.

I don't know about in America, but in Britain Holiday is probably the most famous. And it is a good dance track, though I prefer Borderline and Lucky Star as songs. I'm not sure I would define Lucky Star as 'bubblegum' (by how I would define that term anyway), it's certainly catchy and and quite punchy which I think is a good thing. Borderline is great though apparently there was a later slower version from 85 or so that has been put on every cd since? I heard an earlier quicker version on youtube and preferred that.
