honestly this, the cars are so underappreciated
Talking Heads - Once In A Lifetime
Devo - Whip It
those are two good popular examples of the best new wave

prefab sprout - when love breaks down

prefab sprout is criminally underrated on /mu/, and that's not an unpopular opinion among people who know what prefab sprout is
I'm giving you an invitation to something good that /mu/ doesn't really know about
look up paddy mcaloon if you think I'm trying to trick you

I like it but it doesn't sound particularly new wave to me

I dislike the Cars a lot. Probably partially because of the singer's voice but they're praised everywhere and I just don't find them enjoyable.

Only just recently listened to Steve McQueen, and yeah, this song is great.

Good song too that perfectly captures the whole Cold War mentality. Nena in general is incredibly underrated as they're treated like a one hit wonder but pretty much all of their 80s albums are good and even the singer's more recent solo stuff is fairly good.
