Thanks.

Yeah, I would recommend more folks to revisit Slowdive, The Chameleons, Sigur Ros, and, of course, the Pet Shop Boys...

No thanks, PSB are exactly the kind of 80's pop I can't stand any more.  :P

I will post a few new lists, each one with Slowdive in, maybe that will help!  :lol:

Obviously, PSB don't fit with my other recommendations. I was getting greedy.

The Damned, TV Smith, Ramones, Buzzcocks, The Stranglers, Siouxsie & the Banshees, The Sound, The Doors, Pink Floyd, Slowdive, Mogwai, R.E.M., Heather Nova, Cranes, Anne Clark, Pj Harvey, Nick Cave, Hugo Race, Chris Eckman, Angelo Badalamenti, Calexico, Sacri Cuori, Mike Scott (Waterboys)...

or even from jazz to classical...  :roll:

To me it's always great when very young people are introduced to "old" bands  by their families/friends, it's something that I try to do with my little sister as well, but it's clear that we don't have the same taste in music  :lol:

No, she always says "that music is strange, you are the only one who listens to it!"  :D But i think it's quite common for a girl her age, even if when I was 16 I was already into all these bands

Yup, as I mentioned before, it is difficult to make a list... but The Cure and The Damned are bands I've listened to since 1985 and they are always at the top of the list (and always will be, I guess)...
