	I like the concept (because I love new wave music), but there's no reason to make it go to a random clue after answering one- it's annoying and pointless.

	Being popular in the 80's doesn't necessarily make a band "New Wave". The Police and Blondie would not be considered New Wave artists.

	To jeni18: The Police might have became more of a pop band as time went on, but they were initially part of the post-punk/new wave tradition. The two songs referenced clearly fall into that tradition and not the pop music that they produced in the 80s (although I'd still argue that they stayed true to the New Wave genre). As for Blondie, I'm not quite sure how you can argue that they weren't New Wave. They are consistently referenced as one of the founding members of the New Wave movement in America, along with Talking Heads.
