I suppose I should point out a few things about my list:

1) All the songs are found on material released from 1979-1988.

2) Most if not all charted, or were on albums which charted.

3) The list includes only stuff I have actually heard. :)

I'd have to agree with those awful songs, yeccch!
I was never a fan of Duran's 90's stuff, none of it.
We've discussed horrible New Wave before, but what the heck, let's do it again! Don't forget the stinkiest of the crap: "We Built This City" by Starsh

I like a lot of Duran Duran's 90s output. Even on the "Liberty" album, which contains the awful "Serious", I can point to "All Along The Water" and "My Antarctica" as examples of very good songs.

And I do like "Violence of Summer", although I'm most li

Of course, Jefferson Starship, Mister Mister were new wave! So were Bad English, The Outfield, Loverboy, Golden Earring, and Quiet Riot!
