"Roam" is the only B52s song I take seriously  ;D

I voted for Cradle of Love, though I don't think any of these came out in 1992, but rather 1990.

Well by 1990-92 I meant it came out/charted between 1990 and 1992 inclusive. :)

'I touch myself' by Divinyls. I doubt it would be classed as New Wave but it's a cracking song.

I actually like all of the ones you mentioned in your poll, and I have a few write-ins:

"Policy Of Truth" - Depeche Mode 8)
"Kiss Them For Me" - Siousxie & The Banshees
"Regret" - New Order (which is actually from '93; I consider it to be "90s new wave" since New Order had a lot of new wave hits in the 80s)
"Break It Down Again" - Tears For Fears (also from '93, but TFF was also very popular in the 80s)

I love "Friday I'm in Love" by the Cure, but I think they have much better songs than that. "Enjoy the Silence" is one of Depeche Mode's best songs, I think, from one of their best albums (if not THE best album of theirs).
