God I loved the hell out of this one. My brother and sister were significantly older and I grew up with the typical Led Zeppelin, Foreigner, Journey, etc. They were all fine, but I was bored with them by the time I got interested in music. Then the new wave stuff hit when I was mid-teens, and I was instantly hooked. Devo, Lena Lovich, XTC, Oingo Boingo, and so many others. Earlier if you want to include things like Elvis Costello, Blondie, The Cars, The Police, etc.
