New Dawn Fades , it's the only one that is a veiled tribute to Martin Hannet and his studio habits .

Heart And Soul was a single? :scratch: Must've missed out on that one then.

My vote is Atmosphere, the only track that, at the time of its release, wasn't included on the album proper.

I chose Atmosphere. It is the least "punk" sounding of the three I think, much slower and sad doesnt exactly get the crowd moving like the others. Good song still, just different.

I voted for She's Lost Control, it's the only JD 12".

My vote is Atmosphere, the only track that, at the time of its release, wasn't included on the album proper. Heart And Soul was never a single, Atmosphere was the b-side of Dead Souls (that Sordide Sentimetale thing) and was never intended for inclusion on any album.

I will stand by the original answer, which will be revealed tomorrow (though nobody has given the correct reason yet !), even though the answer may actually change between now and tomorrow.....

The correct reason has a link to tonights gig , featuring Digital and Re-Order , I also stand by your original answer and expect to recieve a goody bag sooner than a Brazilian postman can offer an excuse :nod:

You won't be playing 'Atmosphere' tonight, as it's too hard to replicate Ian Curtis' off-key singing on the opening line.

Atmosphere isn't on a standard album?

It's on "Substance 1977-1980", "Permanent" and the "Heart And Soul" boxset (which includes the early version when it was called "Chances"), go forth Slippy mate.

The correct answer was.........

Heart and Soul, because we weren't playing it at the gig last night. As soon as I get hold of the video footage from last night, I shall make a copy available. Unfortunately the tape recording didn't happen, as the mic wasn't switched on (BBC eh !!). We'll get a recording next time.
