Question: Songs from American Dad

I really like some of the songs in the "Hot Water!" episode of American Dad, performed by Cee Lo Green. I'm especially thinking of the songs starting at 0:09 and 3:36 in this poor quality YouTube medley. What genre of music is this (70s? 80s?) and can you suggest songs for a playlist with this feel.

I'd call that "generic early 80' synth-pop". Look into Wham!, Erasure, Petshop Boys, etc.

Seconding cosmicbandito. The second song especially could be right off the Beverly Hills Cop soundtrack. Check out A-Ha, too.

Also, thanks for making me figure out you can link to anywhere in a YT video!
