anyone want to list their favorites songs with some talking bits in them...here are some that come to mind:

Michael Jackson – Thriller (darkness falls across the land..)
Visage – Fade to Grey (un homme dans une gare isolée..)
ABC – Look of Love (and though my friends just might ask me..)
ABC – Fear of the World (there's so much panic in this world ..)
Prince - Let's Go Crazy (dearly beloved..)
Boney M – Rasputin (but when his drinking and lusting..)
Boney M – Ma Baker (put your hands on your head..)
Madonna – Into the Groove (you can dance for inspiration..)

I know it is not new wave, but Robbie Robertson's Somewhere Down the Crazy River is in that category
