I agree with you. Certainly not new wave. Pop rock.
We didn't sell a lot of records, but somehow we left an impression.

Since you asked:
The only thing Billy Squier and Greg Kihn have in common is the probability that both artists had their videos played in the same hour on MTV.
Squier's music was well-situated for album-oriented rock radio, a much "harder" type of rock than that of Kihn. In fact, I'd say that the majority of Squier's fans went on to embrace popular metal-ish acts such as Def Lappard, Bon Jovi, and their ilk.
Kihn's fans, on the other hand, probably still only reside in San Francisco.
Still, The Break-Up Song's kinda cool (uh-uh uh uh-uh uh uh uh).

Piper used be wicked good,he never should've of gone solo.
I must be bored out my mind, I can't believe I took the time to find and post a Piper album cover and now I'm responding to my own post.
