FAVE NEW ORDER SONG AND WHY???

Murder - fror similar reasons as Mick - love to hear that live - other than that, 'Sunrise' as when I've heard it live, it just worked so well!
True Faith because there's just something about the way it sounds, it has this atmosphere about it and forces an emotion onto you that you can not explain.
I've Got A Cock Like the M1
Starts out soft, gets harder as the beats intensify. Organ pounding begins about 1/2 way though. They don't muscle the lyrics, it's in the same vein as earlier stuff, and it's well-suited for Movement. As a 12" it's very impressive, though technically it's more like 11...
good god,pick a fave new order track?where to begin. a few have picked some crackers already (hurt) in particular,way ahead of its time.
oh ok id go for the peel version of I.C.B.why?
it has an almost etherial quality to it,recorded at possibly the height of the new order/moody/mysterious phase and always wooshes me back to those times like a time machine.
riverside at southport (not grab a grannie night)procession/everythings gone green being played to a packed club,some wearing cowboy hats for some reason or other.
THOSE WHERE THE DAYS.

I thought you were taking the piss about RIVERSIDE.No i have NEVER been
but i had heard sometimes it could be good for a laugh.The cowboy
hats....well that is because a certain GROUP of those that like
dressing up as COWBOYS(a bit like in PHOENIX NIGHTS) have been meeting
there for years.Good post mate!Laughed my head off when i saw that!
DREAM ATTACK, so continental and sophisticated, perfect everything and impressive live renditions. The late night open air Spanish dinner after the hectic nebula of dance and/or pelvic thrusting(Vanishing Point).
I'll have to say Age of Consent, first New Order song I heard back was I was real young & my dad played PCL so loud the house rattled. And Perfect Kiss, I think thats one of (if not the best)Hooky's best bass lines.
TPK--multiple musical orgasim YSF--simplistic perfection Run--get biting lyrics and the ending that sounds like the soundtrack of heaven Crystal--hits me like a shotgun, NO at their best
Vanishing Point, it starts out hard, keeps hitting hard with Hooky's bass, and crescendoes brilliantly, lulls you in the late middle and finishes off very well. The part starting at 1 minute and 55 seconds in is absolute perfection.
Procession, as it combines both Joy Division (the old) and New Order (the future). Plus, the bass line kind of wins it hands down. Very LWTUA-esque.
mine changes with the tides.
right now i'm very fond of run and here to stay, because they sound the sweetest to my ears.
Run.
Because it's beautiful, the instrumental ending is simply superb.
However, I have a serious contender in my current Top 10 with the title track of the upcoming album. If it's already in my top 10, who knows where it'll be in 5 or 10 years from now!
Today it's procession. Tmw it will be Ceremony, the day after it will be In a Lonely Place. Then after that who knows. I change like the wind with them.
always near and on the top: 1963! great song and even a superior remix (arthur baker 1995-rmx).
TPK: the full twelve inches.
A spellbinding confluence of live playing and technology.
Civilisations rise and fall during this track.
And the vid's a stunner.
:\pimp3:
Temptation.
That song turned me from a normal fan, to a 12 or 13 year old obsessed with anything to do with neworder / joydivision.
Welcome to the site Lizzy, I see you've made it over from Rowetta's

That's not just one... 
It changes all of the time but i'm going to go for 'Temptation' because it's a quality tune and, for me, represents New Order at their very best.
Plus, it's always up there with my very favourites :)
Age Of Consent is running it close at the moment though.
It's very hard to pick only 1 song... Well, today I'll go with DREAM ATTACK this time because it's New Order at its best: good lyrics, superb synths, great guitar work, Hooky's basse teaching how it's done... Although it is not a track for a single release, it doesn't take that much attention of "non-fans". You have to be a little more into New Order to really apreciate it.
Dream Attack with World and TPK rounding out the top 3.
You're right Spotnick: I'm listening to Technique at work right now and it's really easy to love everything about Run.
What a great fookin' band.
Ceremony. Helluva way to start their new stage, and that's not to suggest that everything since doesn't measure up, that's just one of my all time faves by ANYBODY. Heard live, the opening chords sent a massive chill up my spine.
