overplayed yet great new wave ?

Postby KYYX4ever » Thu Jul 26, 2007 4:26 am

I know many (or most!) of us really dig the obscure NW stuff, the hard-to-find, OOP, rare, B-sides, demo, or unreleased goodies. Our fabulous CD trade a while back was a resounding kick in the pants to be able to hear all kinds of great stuff that I (we) never knew existed.

That being said, what about the overplayed, Top 10, always-inluded-on-new-wave-compilations, radio new wave hits ? [b]I don't mean guilty pleasures[/b], I mean, which Most Popular, overplayed, always-included-on-NW-compilations new wave song do you STILL love ? Doesn't matter how much play it gets/got, which song still gets your booty shaking 'cuz you think it's really a great song?

Me? [b]"I Ran" by A Flock of Seagulls[/b]. overplayed much? But I still totally dig those soaring synths, new wave guitar, and space-age sound. I love this song. IMO, it totally epitomizes NW music.
