Here's a fun idea for a game (I got this from watching an old Jeopardy episode). Based on the clue you need to give two answers. The first answer will contain part of the second answer (try to keep at least one of the answers New Wave related, i.e. artists, songs, albums, etc.).

Here are a few examples:

Clue: This adult film star isn't Like a Virgin but she makes you want to Open Your Eyes

Answer: Traci Lords of the New Church

Clue: The New Wave Outpost's favorite band asks Kevin Costner to build a stadium.

Answer: The Colourfield of Dreams

Clue: Stylish new romantics look down on the Short People

Answer: Duran Durandy Newman

Get the hang of it?

Okay, here's one for starters:

1985 John Cusack comedy spins me round (like a record)
