I realized I forgot to list it. So I'm adding for number 65. Hazy Shade of Winter by the Bangles.

Now it's time for me to drop one. Look around . . . it's as if the Bangles never appeared. [:D]

i can't let the B-52's win this thing. Just like the downtowns of countless northeast and midwestern cities, it needs a lot of help to make it well.

Im with Otter....it was a crime to ace Aztecs 'Jump' prematurely...but such is the nature of this game [;)] so Im hoping the loss of 5. Downtown—B-52’s will make me feel better[}:)]

I hated it when the Temptations did it. Really hated Tina Turner's version & I'm not particularly fond of 35. Ball of Confusion—Love and Rockets

I've always liked "53. Tell That Girl To Shut Up—Transvision Vamp", but it doesn't fit into the New Wave zeitgeist as well as the rest of the songs on this list.

To settle any cover disputes. I know it doesn't matter what they say, in the jealous games Fun Boy Three or the Go-Go's may play, but their lips have been sealed from this list.
