Also I know I voted against it in the last group but I have not been able to get Dog Police out of my head. It's so awesome that I don't think it even qualifies for my bad music thread

My Picks

1. Daryl Hall - Dreamtime
2. Elephants in Love
3. Everlasting Love
4. Freaks Come Out at Night
5. Get Used To It
6. Gimme the Night
7. Goin Back to Cali
8. Half a Boy and Half a Man

Goin Back to Cali is probably my 2nd favorite LL Cool J Song with Doin' It being 1 for me.

Do you know of any other new wave stuff with a comedic edge, the genre's really great for that sort of thing

I know Devo but there must be more

Monster of love by Sparks comes to mind
Valley Girl by Frank Zappa
I’ll go through some playlists and see if anything else pops out
