Definitely Morten Harket!
Noel Gallagher.
Liam Gallagher.
The Edge. Just coz he is a guitar legend.

Bryan Ferry but he'd have to sing to me first.

Anthony Kiedis off of The Red Hot Chili Peppers (Not strictly speaking from my youth but 24 which feels like my youth now that I'm 46, but never mind)

Oooh Eric Cantona, there's a manly man who could whisper in my ears in his gallic tones!

I'm clearly tired, I misread that as garlic tones.

Meanwhile, I get the love for Dave Grohl, Rob Lowe, and Richard Dean Anderson was good looking to me. My mum also fancied him 😀. James Hetfield still has it, too, although I usually go for people with dark eyes and hair.

John Cusack has really aged well. Andrew McCarthy too. I always sit up a bit if I spot Scott Wolf, very nice.
Michael Nader(Dex Dexter, Dynasty) could talk to me all night.

John Taylor (that absolutely gorgeous smile....)
Rob Lowe (aged beautifully and imbued with post West-Wing smarts)
Morten Harket (still got it)
Christian Slater (ultimate bad boy of my teenage and 40 something dreams).
