1979 Cars - Gary Numan - 5  it's also been my cell ring tone ever since I bought the phone. Gary is very underrated.
1980 Whip It - Devo - 3.5  far from their best work IMO
1981 Shake It Up - The Cars - 3 not New Wave...the Cars were completely unable to be labeled, but still loved 'em
1982 Don't You Want Me - Human League - 3 mediocre effort...Mirror Man was much better
1983 Do You Really Want To Hurt Me? - Culture Club - 2 Ugh
1984 It's My Life - Talk Talk - 5 a work of genius. too bad the video was so terrible.
1985 Take on Me - a-ha - 2 I'd like it more if I didn't have to hear it every week. Funny enough, this was one of the earliest songs I can think of that had a drum 'n bass beat to it (even though it didn't really exist yet)
1986 If You Leave - OMD - 3 I only give it a score this high since they wrote it in such a rush. It's no Enola Gay.
1987 Bizarre Love Triangle - New Order - 4 Almost too "cutesy" for their talent, but dang if it's not catchy
1988 What's On Your Mind - Information Society - 4 Good song. Crap video. Again, not on my list of their best songs. Of course, big props for the Leonard Nimoy sample.
1989 Sowing the Seeds of Love - Tears for Fears - 1 Suxville! Enter Roland's "Sgt. Pepper" phase...ack.
1990 Enjoy The Silence - Depeche Mode - 5 I remember this song as the point where even the most musically challenged discovered who DM were.
