  • It must be hard to pick just a few New Wave synthpop tracks because there are so many good ones to choose from...

    'Tears Run Rings' is actually Marc Almond's solo song, so technically it's not Soft Cell.

    Thanks for uploading!

  • @Homoholic the title is just wrong. but if i change it now, nowbody will find the video.

    about "tears runm rings" , well its from my soft cell album i bought in 1996.

    and this video would include much more new wave if the record companys would let me.

  • @dynamothomar

    you could change the title to "new wave AND synthie pop bands"

    In the early 80s synthpop was part of New Wave but since New Wave "died" in the mid 80s, you can't really say that synthpop such as AND ONE or WOLFSHEIM (or anything recorded in the 90s) is New Wave. I know it's a bit confusing, especially for younger people.

    And I'm telling you, 'Tears Run Rings' is not a SOFT CELL song. Your CD is "Soft Cell AND Marc Almond's Singles". Marc Almond recorded several solo albums.

  • @Homoholic ok its the memorabilia singles.... but i wouldnt make such a big difference between the genres.

  • Die ersten (rein kommerzielle) "Elektroniker" waren Jean Michel Jarre, Tangerine Dream, Kraftwerk...also hat UK NICHT den Synthie-Sound  "erfunden"...^^

    Wer kann mir zustimmen? ^^

  • New wave would be a great theme for a big party ....wohuuu :P!!!

    I don't think you know what you are talking about. According to wikipedia "Conventional wisdom holds that the genre (New Wave) "died" in the middle of the 1980s" and "New Wave "receded" during this period when advances in synthesizer technology caused New Wave groups and mainstream pop and rock groups to sound more alike"

    Secondly, half of the tracks in this video are from the 90s. They may be influenced by New Wave, but this is not true New Wave. It is synthpop!

  • @djmusicjac its new wave

  • @Homoholic its good that you told us new wave "died" homoholic.and i guess the record charts verified this too..good thing the existance of a type of music is tie to your opinion and the music sales from record compaies.keep us posted on what next is going to 'die"...

    ANDbtw,its NEW WAVE.it was NEVER 'synth pop"or "dark wave"we didnt use those made up terms back then..

  • NIce mix !!! Love the fades in and out ..the music never stopped. Class.

  • beautiful!

  • @SSTK1982 wie kannst du es wagen, hier einen deutschen kommentar zu schreiben ;))

  • @MrsAdely Ich stimme zu

  • Visage was such a great band. Shame that nobody makes that kind o music anymore. Some bands try but fails.

  • now this is what i call synthpop, heavy synths, with new wave influence, or post punk influence. The bubblegum synthpop of today is no where as good as tunes like this

  • I ask for Propaganda (DUEL) ,,nice synthpop song of 1985 !
