Journey? Then we'd all be in pain!
I would like to see OMD or Spandau Ballet.

My 5 would be the following.
Adam And The Ants
The Boomtown Rats
Altered Images
Devo
Talking Heads

Honorable Mention
I know that they weren't really New Wave,but still I dug them quite a bit when they were out,and that would be Musicial Youth.

The Kid from "The Courtship of Eddies Father" is now the lead singer of the Dead Kennedy's. That sounds like a scene from one of those Direct TV commercials where the guy think's he's dreaming.

That's like having Gary Coleman as the new lead singer

Definitely the Talking Heads. The Specials. Oingo Boingo. The Smiths. Wham just so we can see how useless Andrew Ridgely truly was.
