^^ great music. Ridgway is a genius.
Re: new wave
^^Funny, I thought about that one yesterday. And "Money", a classic!
Re: new wave
I regard Bowie's albums from the Berlin era Low and Heroes as sort of New Wave and probably Lodger.
Favourite song: Sound and Vision.

If this doesn't make you want to dance, you're dead.
As one of the commenters said "what is sexier than a beautiful woman dancing barefoot?"
A little more.

And a little later, a bit more mellow.

Re: new wave
This is what happens when you take the rhythm section (bass and drums) from Talking Heads and let them do their own thing.

Re: new wave
^ B-52! Awesome. And I don't have bad words for anything Talking Heads related.
Re: new wave
Talking Heads great. How about the Cure

Re: new wave
I know this is controversial, but I'd say these fellows are the most underrated band (or at least up there):
THE SOUND
fast & loud
slow & sweet
a good album

Future Islands - Seasons (Waiting On You)
Great band. And the singer is serious about it.

Re: new wave
I was browsing my cds/lps before, looking for something to keep my ears happy while cleaning the house.
I stumbled into this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iGvfWus-y4
Well, the whole record where that title track comes from.
Probably my favourite Bauhaus', or at least the one I hold dear in my heart. It's been way too long since the last time I put this album on.
Now, I'm sure, days of new wave will happily follow.

Re: new wave
Predictably, Virgin Prunes followed Bauhaus and now The Fall. Mark E Smith will always be remembered.
Re: new wave
RVG from Australia reminds me of these sounds a lot.
