Remember the New Wave era from the eighties? Groups like General Public, Industry, Aha, China Crisis and The Cure to name a few. And because I grew-up in the eighties, I still listens every now and then with New Wave! It brings back good memories. My favorite is “Chamber of Hellos” by “WIRETRAIN”.

Dude, since you have quite a bit of background on the filipino new wave scene in the 80s, maybe you can help me out-I’m trying to find out recently what the title of the songs that the filipino band The Dawn played on the movie Olongapo-The American Dream. It was a film back in the late 80s, and the band played a few songs onstage in the bar scenes. If you could provide me with the titles of those songs in the film, I’d sure appreciate it,thanks
