I am listening to The Best of 1982 on Musicmatch, and I think that 1982 has more of my favorite songs, per annum, than any other year. It really was a fine year for music. Here are some songs that came out that year: "Don't You Want Me" by Human League, "Freeze Frame" by J. Geils Band, "Working for the Weekend" by Toto, "Every Little Thing She Does is Magic" by the Police, and "Tainted Love" by Soft Cell — and the list goes on and on.

Based on the merits of "Heat of the Moment" by Asia alone, 1982 stands head and shoulders above the previous and following 5 years at least.

Comments:
"Heat of the Moment" rocks. Plus, it has a kind of self-reference to your 1982 playlist:

And now we find ourselves in 82...
 
Yeah, I love that line. It's all about how the disco days are over ... sigh.
 
Working for the weekend... that was Loverboy!
