Some great socially conscious music during that era:

Ghost Town - The Specials

Smalltown Boy - The Bronski Beat

You Take Me Up - Thompson Twins

https://youtu.be/THpkPLfx_Bs?si=0plGs2ML1uKTlp3g

Also two covers in that era worth a shout out. One because it was a great song (Tainted Love), and one for the scantily clad girls on Top of the Pops (Tight Fit):
