I think i really got into New Wave over the summer after seeing the video for "All I Wanted" by Belfegore when they were doing a history of the show showing many things from the 80's. They also played nick the stripper by birthday party. anbyway if you go to mnn.org the ny public access's website and click on the channel 67 tv box you'll be able to watch it from wherever you are. of course i think you most definately need a high speed connection.


Edit: Forgot to give their url. On the homepage there's a large list of acts who've been on the show. many 80's alternative rocj groups: http://www.geocities.com/videowavemusicmusings/

Hi, (This is my first post here so forgive me if I do something wrong)
I managed to tape (most of) the video for "One Simple Thing" on VH1-Classic a while back. The weird thing was that it aired during "Metal Mania!" Now I wonder if the VH1 Classic progr

i don't have the cd but do have a 192 bitrate cd quality rip of the album as well as the maxi single for oe simple thing.

[ZenBoy]

I'm surprised that it's so hard to find this on CD - I found it a few years back, brand new, in a local CD shop's bins.

I notice that Amazon has it listed from several sources, though I'm surprised to see a "low price" of $49.99....

Wow, awesome video show!!!
