Nouvelle Vague (album)
Nouvelle Vague is the 2004 self-titled debut album by Nouvelle Vague. The album consists entirely of easy listening and bossa nova versions of songs that were written and recorded during the post-punk/New Wave era. "Nouvelle Vague" means "New Wave" in French, so the name of the band is a play on the words.
The Guardian newspaper included it in its list of the 10 "most beautiful sleeves of 2004".

Famous quotes containing the word vague:
“But I must needs take my petulance, contrasting it with my accustomed morning hopefulness, as a sign of the ageing of appetite, of a decay in the very capacity of enjoyment. We need some imaginative stimulus, some not impossible ideal which may shape vague hope, and transform it into effective desire, to carry us year after year, without disgust, through the routine- work which is so large a part of life.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
