  1. Okay, so it's afternoon here - but it looks like the #JukeboxFridayNight theme is #SurfingTheNewWave. And look - I'm trying to do it in the afternoon instead of morning! I'm learning.

    Well, I suppose let's go with #NewWave as a focus cause I think that's right.

    Either way - we're doing the "Safety Dance" with Men Without Hats which, once I introduced my kids to it, they got...weirdly into it.

    Theme #surfingthenewwave

    Hm. Surfing music? New Wave music? Nautical/Sea/Wave music?

    I have three entries for New Wave music:

    1. Joe Jackson - Look Sharp!

    2. Elvis Costello - Mystery Dance

  3. Going to be honest that I am way confused by this week's #JukeboxFridayNight theme of #SurfingTheNewWave. Not sure if I should be doing surfing/beach music or New Wave music... So I'll do one of each.

    First for New Wave. One of my favorites from the 80s is Talking Heads "Once In A Lifetime"

  5. For #JukeboxFridayNight we're
    #SurfingTheNewWave. In "Letter to a Fanzine" (1985), Great Plains asks hard-hitting questions of the US underground scene:

    - Why do punk rock guys go out with new wave girls?
    - Isn't my haircut really intense?
    - Isn't Nick Cave a genius in a sense?
    - Let's see, a subscription for life means how many issues, 5?

    Oh I've managed to fit a CRASS song into the theme

    "Maybe you think it's the new new wave,
    Well, when all it is is just another rave.
    Maybe it looks like the writing's on the wall, "

    Crass - Fun Going On

  7. Check out this video on YouTube:

    The Killing Moon- Echo & the Bunnymen.
    Moon-Tide-Surf? Also more post-punk than new wave, but evs…it’s a great song.
