first post!

i wish to grant immunity to "I Told You So"... since it seems everyone hates it ;)

i happen to love the song though, and think everyone should try to be a bit more open minded about it. defnitely not the best song on the record, but doesn't deserve the hate that it gets.

it has to be Working Overtime. It's not that it's such a bad song, but it doesn't belong on the album. It would have been the most perfect New Order album ever without Working Overtime. thank god for CD burners and iPods.

I voted for track 1 completely by accident simply beacuse it was the track that appeared in the voting box. I apologize for my carelessness. I meant to vote for track 11.

As I've said before, I view WO as side 3 of the album (1 to 5 are side 1 and 6 to 10 are side 2). I think WO was an intended change of pace, something to let you decompress after the climactic brilliance of Turn. WO is really the wake following the funeral. It plays a role in the overall structure of the album. Having said all that I still would vote to eliminate it first.

Agree, I actually rember thinking brotherhood was very much two side and back in the days of tapes it seemed to make sense lie on bed hink to the first side, get up change the side and dance around bedroom to BLT. What a corker it almost makes me wish for tapes again but witht the quality.

For me the album would be perfect without the two tracks produced by Stuart Prices.  SO I'm voting for Guilt, which is a useless song.

I had to vote for Working overtime, Which is a shame because I like the song, but I see alot of people are voting for Who's Joe? Which is one of my favorite songs on the cd, so I have to help keep it, and if it means sacraficing Working overtime, thats what I have to do.

I dont get get it Who's Joe? Rules. A true New Order song! Well I will do what it takes to protect Who's Joe, Sirens & Turn!

Jetstream, utter pants, what would ian think, if they were still on factory this would never have happened, but then the album probably wouldn't.

having said that, I'll still buy the single, and blare it out of the car stereo.

what a fucking hypocrite.
