It's an odd psychological fact that for most people the music they hear at the age of 14 sticks with them for the rest of their life.

So, music from around 1985 should go down particularly well with your sister.
eg.

A-Ha - Take On Me
Billy Ocean - Loverboy
Dire Straits - Money For Nothing
Tina Turner - We Don't Need Another Hero (Thunderdome)
Talking Heads - Road To Nowhere
Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls
Mr. Mister - Broken Wings
Midge Ure - If I Was
Huey Lewis And The News - The Power Of Love
Feargal Sharkey - A Good Heart
Eurythmics - Would I Lie To You
Bryan Adams - Run To You
Billy Idol - White Wedding
Debarge - Rhythm Of The Night
Duran Duran - A View To A Kill
Tears For Fears - Shout
