10 songs is too bloody hard! A slap on the back to anyone who can do it! lol I can say that for now my favourite song is "I Wanna Be Sedated" by the Ramones. It's a start.....

These are some of the 80's songs I like and haven't grew tired of (yet). And I don't care if they don't all fit into the catagory of what some consider new-wave. And I also don't care if you think I can't count to ten.

The Waterboys - Medicine Bow
Echo And The Bunnymen - All In Your Mind

Hi, just want to say I like this board a lot!

In no particular order, nor necessarily genre-consistent:

Senses Working Overtime - XTC
All the Young Punks - The Clash
Wuthering Heights - Kate Bush (this one just never gets old )
Ooh Ooh La La LA - The Raincoats
I Found That Essence Rare - Gang of Four
Little Girls - Oingo Boingo
Mind Your Own Business - Delta 5
This Ain't no Picnic - The Minutemen
What Do I Get? - Buzzcocks
Germfree Adolescents - X-Ray Spex

I only chose one song per artist, but boy was it hard picking one Kate Bush song or one Clash song!

Exrat, I love you for mentioning Kirsty MacColl...
