The incredible, edible EGG

I don't think there would have been Temptation without EGG, it's a logical progression of it. Shame they didn't play it on the recent tour.

Talking of which, two blokes I overheard at Brixton were saying it would have been good if they'd done Shadowplay. Good, but unlikely I would think - there are quite a few JD songs that I could never imagine Barney trying, and Shadowplay and New Dawn Fades would be pretty high up on that list

I didn't think Transmission would be up his street though...

Instead of those remixes that no-one likes, why dont they chuck a few live tracks from the recent tour on singles?

From my limited sample of two gigs, they wouldn't even have to find the best version!!!!

I'd rather they put two or three original songs on each single, maybe a different new song on each version of the cd single. That way there's a proper incentive to buy it instead of feeling compelled to buy a cd1 & 2 when you know the remixes will be duffers.

But in fairness Muff, they're simply not going to put 2 or 3 b-sides on each single release. by putting the live performances on they don't even have to get off their lazy arses

That would probably suit them right down to the ground! A compromise then, one original song and one live song on each cd version of the single. As well as the customary remixes of course.

NewOrder are a cultured,mature band. Little titbits like that should be confined to the teenypop bands of this age in my opinion.

I'm not particularly a fan of the live stuff being released one track at a time but at least it would make the singles a little more interesting.

Well any better suggestion swould be welcome.

I take it Inta you like the SLY remix package then?

dont even go there...!

Definitely a good song... There's a 13-minute version on the 1981 Glastonbury concert (C.N.D. Festival), which used to be available on this site.
