Good 80s / 90s Rock Covers Ideas Please

Hey all! I'm spinning at a friend's party which is based around his High School reunion. Many people there may not be into Progressive so I want to find some good tracks that they can relate too.

Most of them are into 80s and 90s rock and I was wondering if there are any good remixes out there that people know of. I know I have heard some Ozzy, AC/DC, etc. over the years but any tips would be great.

Mostly progressive but trance is great too.

Much appreciated -

play kate bush vs. infusion - running up that hill. alot of people should recognize that oldy, its like from 1985 or somethin (kate bush's original). also, theres a new remix by adam freeland of nirvana's - smells like teen spirit << everyone will dig this. Theres a remix of U2 - with our without you thats also new and banging. if i think of more ill let you know.

*Way Out West - The Fall
*Madonna - Ray Of Light (Sasha Remix)
*Madonna - Nothing Really Matters (Kruder & Dorfmeister Mix)
*Sunstar - November Rain

most of the songs ive mentioned are neither rock nor progressive per se but, they are songs that are from the past two decades that i think most everybody would be familiar w/.
