New Order song titles

This is an archived legacy thread. Replies are closed, but the discussion is preserved.

Here's a fun little thing to discuss/argue about: How many NO songs actually mention the words of the title in their lyrics? It's pretty easy to tell which ones don't (Blue Monday, True Faith, and Bizarre Love Triangle sping to mind almost immediately) but which songs actually do say the title phrase as part of their lyrical content? (And no peeking at the lyrics section of the site, that's cheating). Not awarding any prizes or anything, just curious to test the old grey matter.

I'd count Regret in there, not being too picky. I think you got them all, wish I had more to award you with than just a hearty "good job"

I guess Sabotage will the the missing link, but it was titled Run This River Dry which is part of the lyrics...

Well, Slow Jam, Close Range & Run Wild are too.
