Your Fav New Wave Cover

I like Sheila Hylton's version of "The Bed's Too Big Without You" better then the original, it sounds more authentic.

The Clash - Brand New Cadillac

I got a black eye pogoing to it a very very long time ago...I was pogoing down and a litle guy was pogoing up...[B)]...[:D]

No Doubt - Its My Life.

cool video..
and the Korg Triton boards have some cool sounds.

Especially near the end of the song where the boardist holds down that sub pad and swipes his left hand across the ribbon controller and it brings a filter down on the whole thing.

I love the triton...used it for my one and only remotely professional recording...

the rest was done entirely with minimoogs.

I noted someone said On Braudway by Gary Numan.

I love that song...so so much.
I forget that it is a cover.
The synth solo at the end makes me cry my eyes out everytime.

I love synthesizers-

Also another cover-

Limahl - Inside to Outside.

Get a chance to hear the original...it is a wonderful song in general..the original is really obscure and hard to find. Awesome song though.

Billy Idol - Heroin.

I feel bad for admitting this. Because everyone hates this song because it sounds nothing like the original and completely destroys it...but I like this song for some reason. Maybe its the progressions in pentonic blues in D.
