Half of this is 80's pop, not real alternative.
-
I keep my kids living in the 80's. From music , movies to lifestyle. 80's were a great era...This "mix tape" rocks!!!
-
As someone who was a college DJ at DePaul University in the 80s and took pride in making cassettes for friends, this particular "cassette" is by far my favorite of the collection that has been put together.
-
you nailed it.
-
The Cure, baby!
-
for those of you who want to hear some real oldies back when they first came out here in utah, do a search for KCGL music and there are a few hours of the first new wave radio station here in Utah. Great stuff!

Just had to comment about this music. The 80's were so knarly, killer, you know all that, the best of times!!! This music is some of my favorites and always brings back great memories. Thank you for the good feelings!! I wish they would come back and stay.....life is so crazy any more ya know?? Love it but miss them 80's, im getting old but this music never gets old!! good day!!!

Oh crickey hahaha, bloody awesome! Miss those days so bad!
So not interested in the crap they label as music these days ;)
Guess i'm just going to have to listen to your other alternative/new wave mixes now, I'm curious :P
Ps: and the Cure, well just priceless. -
umm, I wouldn't have considered many of these bands as new wave, but thanks for the SELECTER :)
-
People make fun of me because I like this stuff and I was born in 2002 and think I'm weird now.
-
