That's the number of registered fan club members of this site right now. Congratulations to Seb & Nic for such a success (and to New Order too :))

More useless information: that song is actually called "9-9" :)

Technically, yes, but if you notice on the cd case, there's a dash between the first 9 (it's the 9th track on the album) and the second 9. I think REM were being cheeky with that, and I have since referred to it as "999".

BTW Interesting that no one's brought up the fact that 999 upside down is....666! We're all doomed!!!!!

Is it the chart entry position for the next single?

Chart position of the next single.. funny, still, it's a little normal now that the album is released that the chart is that low I guess.

As for our 1000th member, we were expecting this for the site's opening birthday (well, the basis were there since 1997, but NewOrderOnline started Dec 1st last year).. if we hadn't done our big database cleanup, this would have happened a long time ago...!

But.. cheers!
