It’s 1979 but it was one of the first new wave style hits to take off.

Video Killed The Radio Star - The Buggles

Sparks - When I'm With You.

I always laugh at the lyrics 'I never feel like garbage when I'm with you"

Echo and The Bunnymen - Lips Like Sugar

I love all their songs really. I just love their sound.

The Big Dish - Slide. The first CD I ever bought when they first were invented was a compilation released by one of the Brisbane FM stations (FM radio was a novelty back then too) and this track was on it:

Hi Eddie,
I've never heard of them but as soon as I clicked on the link, I did like it! Thanks for that..just on afternoon tea break from work so I've saved the link in a folder. Its getting mighty crowded in there as I've saved songs from some of our members on here with excellent taste and I like to enjoy them on Sundays when I can sit and watch the clips properly.

I hope you like them. I had two of their albums on vinyl.

How's this for something different..........
