"Catch Me I'm Falling" by Real Life is a favorite of mine. But, it might be too "Pop" for some people.

I'm so happy to see Japan on here, they really were one of the most innovative bands. No one can beat Mick Karn's bass lines.

"In Vogue" is a gorgeous song. There's a really cool video for "Visions of China" -- out there somewhere.

Propaganda's "Duel" is one of my all time faves. I cannot fault it in any way!

Mare_Idol is right about Japan. I liked their cover versions as well - they made them unique. Not may can do that. And I am a massive Cope/Teardrop Fan even though he is abs

Lot of good ones on this list - ditto on Propoganda.

Japan really went through a bizarre transformation....started out as almost a glam-rock type outfit, lewd gestures and all, and then got quite a bit more sophisicticated into the early 80's. The fir

Tomb: Yes, Japan's covers were certainly unique. I especially love their version of "I Second That Emotion" because they made it sad and slow to accompany what the lyrics were about, whereas Smokey Robinson sang it so happy as if he was watching a circus

Propaganda is also my fave on your list. But "P-Machinery" is my favourite song by them.

'I Wanted to tell her' is one of the best cuts from Ministry's 'With Sympathy' album (1983) a seminal work IMHO which embodied an edgy yet infectious pop synth of Alain Jourgensen and Stephen George.
Other notable album tracks:
1) Effigy
2) Revenge

Work for love is simply awsome. I love that song!
Sadly, I dont have a copy of it though!

I was emailed P-Machinery the day after I downloaded Duel...sorta coincidence.

I love Effigy with a passion. I love to piss off my roomates and hallmates with
