i 2nd that !
Almost an unfair poll here because I really like all of the songs. I voted for Dracula's Castle though. I can't wait to pick this up at the store when it comes out. Maybe the early rumours were true, this could be an album of the year contender, perhaps for a few magazines.
Dracula's Castle. Uh-uuuh-uuh the song is underrated IMHO. but honestly, there's no real cracker amongst those songs. I'm a bit dissapointed, but Dracula's Castle really could become a hit. Alone the title is awful. I still can't believe they named a song like this... I can't even imagine to read this song title on a New Order album...

Yeah but who is going to forget it? I kind of like the title because it's so wierd to name a song Dracula's Castle. Best oddly named tune since Bizarre Love Triangle!
Is it just me or does "Dracula's Castle" sound a lot like a cheesy title for a 80's Nintendo game?
For example:

Sirens for mine, close call though.
I'd love to see someone like Arthur Baker get a hold of it for the radio edit when it gets a single release. Perhaps polish the chorus us a little, bring the accoustic sounds in earlier, add a few layers, tighten the NO production up a bit overall. But don't get me wrong - quality track.

Close between Who's Joe, Turn, Jetstream, WFTSC (the winner) here. Has to be said, though, the choice is much harder than for Get Ready.
So many jaw-dropping moments on this album. Brilliant.
Ive only heard 5: thats, WFTSC, Krafty, IToldYouSo, Jet & Working Overtime.
Of those i'd go for
WORKING OVERTIME
![]()
(followed by Jetstream)
Which puts me in a minority of 1![]()
But thats OK ![]()
"Guilt is a Useless Emotion", but that damned intro to "Hey Now What You Doing" is stuck in my head.
I've only had the album for about a week. For some reason Working Overtime really sticks out as a stand out track. Still don't like Jetstream.

Done! ![]()
I have to confess I didn't think this was a good album, Krafty apart, but it's grown on me a lot. Definitely takes a few listens but very worth it. Who's Joe? gets my vote, though it's close with Guilt and the title track. Only RTS 2 at the end is the only weak one but even that's better than the former.
Well today it's Morning Night and Day. Seems to be changing each time i listen to the album. The only song i can say i don't care for that much is Working Overtime.
Good thing when you can't decide what track is the best.
My favourite picks are Guilt is a Useless Emotion, Waiting For the Sirens' Call, Hey Now What You Doing (crikey, why has no-one pointed out that?! It would make a cracking single).
I still love Dracula's Castle, Who's Joe?, and Turn as well though. Sigh. So many options!
But Waiting For The Sirens' Call is the winner. It actually reminds me of Your Silent Face, for some reason. New Order doing something sentimental really well.. hurrah! ![]()

Well I'll... third it!
Hey Now, What you doing...
I like the composition of the song. Good mix between the guitars and synths. It reminds me a lot of a song that could have been a part of Electronic's "Twisted Tenderness" album...
I really wish we could vote for two song...Dracula's Castle is really getting a lot of play on my ipod lately too. I love the ending to that song.
Sumner's vocals are great in "Hey now.." Good song all around.
I'm gonna say it...Krafty so far. I bet you this will change though, i've listened to the album only once and it's growing on me, wasn't impressed at all at first, but it's growing.

I've voted, but you can find out my opinion when Nic publishes my full review of the album...!
