Nouvelle Vague - 80's New Wave meets 60's Bossa Nova

If you've seen the GMC Arcadia commercial you might have noticed Nouvelle Vague's cover of Modern English's "Melt With You" Maybe I am late to the party but I recently found out they have covers of other classic songs like Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart," Depeche Mode's "Just Can't Get Enough" and The Cure's "A Forest."

The covers are sure to polarize at least some 80's purists. Right now I am enjoying the songs. Great lounge music. The covers are actually fun to listen to. Time will tell if the music can rise above novelty status.
