Does anyone know what other projects Steven and Gillian did work for? I heard they did some spots for TV shows and some theme song work but I never found out what they were.

They also did a theme for MTV, cannae remember which snippet it was used for, but can remember reading or hearing something about it being the most played song on TV ever.

And more recently the music for Cracker.

" the other two of New Order, Gillian Gilbert and Stephen Morris, also got involved in various side-projects, including Life. Life made two 7"s for Factory: Tell Me in 1984, and the double A-side Better/Optimism in 1985. Both were issued with different sleeves on 12" by Factory Benelux, the first as Dites Moi, with the A-side sung in French. A Benelux 7" of Dites Moi was also set for release, but withdrawn at the eleventh hour."
