New Dawn Fades still has the ability to turn me sad after one bar, it is possibly one of the most melancholy songs ever written. Love it, but wish it didn't do what it does to me.
I love Disorder. Up until now it would have been New Dawn Fades or Insight, but I've gone for Shadowplay. It's musical perfection. It's simple but effective. Did a cover of it this weekend. It rocks.
I love the way "Disorder" not only opens the album but if you listen to the group chrolologically, it kind of opens the band itself too. I love the bass of also, of course. Tough choice overall.
New Dawn Fades.
A magnificent, haunting song and the first JD track that I really got into all those years ago. Disorder and Day of the Lords come close, but I have to say that I've never seen what it is about She's Lost Control that many seen to like. Oh well, no accounting for taste.
New Dawn Fades, but I was going to vote for Disorder until I said "humm.. yeah that's right, that's the one"...
It has always been New Dawn Fades - my fave JD song.
Everytime I listen to it I get f*cked up and the funny thing is I like the way that feels

What, f*cked up or f*cked up?? 
Disorder, Day of the Lords, SLC, Insight, and NDF were my choice picks for this, but I had to go with Disorder.
'Bout time someone did one of these polls for Joy Division. There wasn't one last time we did all this. I was thinking about starting one a while back. Ok then. That's my 2 bits (25 cents).

mine too, partner! 
another one to ndf
i voted for new dawn fades altough i had the live version from still pop up in my head when i voted.
nobody else like Day of the Lords then?! only one (mine) vote ! found it hard to choose right enough: several brilliant, moody and poignant tracks there ...
NDF but Shadowplay's lyrics could contain an exquisite image about cold steel odour if the comma was non existent. Perhaps it shouldn't be there because the thought of assasins smelling of cold steel is delightful.

I could only stare in disbelief......

Somehow, I knew someone would say that
I can't even vote on this one. How do you choose the best track on your favourite album? It's flawless and I find it hard to view it as individual tracks. Sorry, a big sit-on-the-fence-can't-make-a-decision one for me.
