so close to top 10 :(
tbh i kind of wish my 1 wasn't a 2000s song given the rest of this list lol, but i simply love this song's riff and the way it builds up to the "can you love me" parts, it sounds amazing to me

Uh Oh, Top 10 Comes to Town The Chameleons - "Up the Down Escalator" Killing Joke - "Love Like Blood" The Cure - "A Night Like This" Joy Division - "Twenty Four Hours" R.E.M. - "Radio Free Europe" Siouxsie and the Banshees - "Christine" Talking Heads - "Cities" XTC - "Making Plans For Nigel" Bloc Party - "This Modern Love" The Church - "Destination" Which songs surprised you by making this top 10 or not being here? Care to predict the order of this top 10? The highest and 3rd highest standard deviations have yet to be revealed; what do you think they are?

30. Idziemy Przez Las - SiekieraThe guitars were alright but the song itself lacked lyrics. Even if I don't understand what he is saying I could tell it was the same words. It all just felt like a preview of a song put on repeat. 29. Eisbär - GrauzoneDamn! Lost my foreign favorite from this list of songs. That bass line was fierce. The song was a another preview put on repeat for all I know, but did I mention that cool bass line? So was the song about saving the Polar Bears? 28. The Boy With The Perpetual Nervousness - The FeeliesThis band appeared in another RD we did. The music was cool. Vocals? Not so much. 27. A Song From Under The Floorboards - MagazineThis was pretty rad. You could tell it was early 80's from the melodic synths in the background. 26. Brand - New - Life - Young Marble GiantsThe guitar riff was cool and I was ready to love this. Something must have tuned me out a bit with the vocals, cuz it didn't seem like a song I would tank? The song never arcs either so I guess that's why I gave it a low rank? 25. That's When I Reach For My Revolver - Mission Of BurmaThis was definitely about those vocal tones, because the actual music wasn't too bad. 24. Agenda Suicide - The FaintThis kinda sounded like industrial klub music and I usually get tuned out quickly, but it was more toned down, and actually felt like a song with actual lyrics and less ear distorting noize. Pretty cool listen. 23. Over the Edge - WipersPretty catchy song. I might have underranked it, but maybe I really did like 27 songs more than this. 22. Romeo's Distress - Christian DeathIdk who this guy or band was, but aside from a pretty fierce Goth jam he also had those fine goth chicks just going up and giving his a kiss. Pass some over to the less fortunate please. 21. Romantic Rights - Death From Above 1979Crazy Guitars sounds. They sounded like weapons ready to grind the listener. This was a cool song. The lyrics were just as fierce and it had a lot of melody. 20. Blind - Swans I didn't feel not much empathy for this song. I must be blind to it's beauty? It's musically ,and vocally not for me. 19. See No Evil - TelevisionThis is way more up my league musically. Great song, but there were still many better jams on the list to upgrade above this one. 18. Public Image - Public Image Ltd.I would lie if I said I didn't know this one. Great one, much better than some of one we ranked on Alt games. 17. Winning - The SoundAnother song I enjoyed. Gave me Cure vibes all the way through. 16. Keep Slipping Away - A Place To Bury StrangersThis one blew me away. Killer great vocals for this type of Post 2000's New Wave. A bit like White Lies style. 15. Map Ref 41 Degrees N 93 Degrees W - WireThose guitars were played a bit like The Police. Misses my top 10, but a really good one all the way through. 14. Damaged Goods - Gang Of FourAnother one I already knew from early 80's gets a vip in my top 10. Love those guitars. The melodies remind of Bloc Party. That's always a great thing. 13. Dark Entries - BauhausI usually dig Darkwave a lot more, but this song didn't quite click with me. 12. NARC - InterpolI guess I enjoy Interpol a lot more than people think? It really has to do about 90% with his vocals. Also I always feel The Killers could do something like this, but are too afraid it won't become an instant radio hit. 11. Private Idaho - The B-52'sI mean if I don't put this one in my top 10 why even bother playing? It's just classic New Wave quirkiness that's too irresistible not to love. Doing a bit better than I thought. 4 of my top 5 are still kicking. ;)
