oh, how could I forget:

The Killing Moon - Echo & the Bunnymen.

I love Ian McCulloch's voice in that song, esp. with the way he sings at the end.

I really, truly love True by Spandau Ballet. I'm not sure if this next entry is allowed on a new wave site but how about Babe, and The Best of Times by Styx, and Hard to Say I'm Sorry by Chicago.
