5.0 out of 5 stars Great for the true new wave fans, August 12, 2005

I don't understand why people keep reviewing the Living in Oblivion series and whining that these aren't the songs they heard on the radio. There are plenty of compilations out there with all the 80s radio hits. This series has a lot of the great songs that didn't get much radio play. I knew all but one song on this disc because in the 80s I was hanging out at postpunk/new wave clubs and listening to college radio. For anyone who truly loves new wave/club music from the 80s, this is a great collection.
