Ana follows New Order's JetsteamLast updated 23 March 2005
Ana Matronic from Scissor Sisters has jetted into the UK to make a video with New Order.
They met at this year's Brits and she's been a fan since she was 13:
Ana provides vocals on their new track 'Jetstream' but stayed tight-lipped about what she's doing in the video:
"All I know is that there are spacecraft involved."
"My styling is futuristic but also has some Japanese embellishments."
... and it´s a good choice!
Ana will be alone in the video, no doubt about it. it´d be RARE seeing any of the boys there... maybe Phil? :-P
spacecraft? : skeptic :
Deffo the second single, she was on Radio 1 earlier talking about her love of NewOrder and Blue Monday 
As the old kitkat advert said:
they can't sing, can't dance and they look awful, they'll go a long way!!!
The song aint that good, they're old, she's a minger, barney can't dance and you just know one day hooky will swoop down with his bass and need help getting back up, can't wait to see that on TOTP.
Isn't it funny how the biggest fans are the harshest critics.
not even a full on big bukkake video featuring "Ana Matronic and the guys from new order" could save the putrid crap, that is jetstream.It has to be New orders worst ever,by a mile
some nasty opinions here.....
it's not THAT bad of a song...just pop stuff.
looking forward to a video for WFTSC....hopefully Barney on his yacht in a little sailor's cap.
Not releasing Waiting for the sirens call as a single would be as criminal as not releasing Vanishing point as single off technique.
Its the best song in years.

Funny that, I just checked again, & its class! 
Good single - & my kids like it too
Jetsream's definitely the next one cause Richard X is remixing it.
I'm looking forward to it... especially if he makes a couple of subtle changes... like replacing the tune with something that sounds a little less ELO, removing Anna Matromony or whatever her name is, lacing Barney's pernod with the same gear he was using on Technique and then with a gun at his head say to him "JETSTREAM LOVER... go on I fuggin dare you"
... I think we could have a half decent New Order single.
Jetstream's a fuggin mess and stick's out like a saw thumb. And Jacques Le Cunt... sorry Conte, needs a kicking for saying he's a massive fan and then completely producing any sign of New Order out of the track.
That's enough I'm going to have a sit and calm down !!!
Trust me, this song is very flat when Ana Matronic's not on it... hence why Stuart Price introduced her to the band...
According to the "other site":
"Jetstream" video is in process to be completed as we speak. The 2nd single (of New Order soon to be release new album "WFTSC") is planned to be release May 16, 2005. Remixes include Arthur Baker, Richard X and Tom Neville.

Agreed, it's definitely rock bottom out of all of New Order's songs for me. They should've given this pop abortion to Gwen Stefani for her crappy solo album.

pfff jetsream the worst new order song ever? some short memories in ere then :D.
just a few of the usual suspects, "state of the nation" what a lazy half arsed track that is,who in the fuck thought it would cut it as a single.
"shellshock" i need not say anymore with this one.
jetstream stands head n shoulders above either of them 2 but for crying out loud its only rock n roll.
No short memory here, eh. I'll take the non-confronting State Of The Nation and even the sub-par Shellshock over Jetstream any day. But hey, we can agree to disagree. Shellshock probably is close to the bottom of my list anyway (if there weren't a bunch of Republic tunes clogging up the drain). :/

Oy! Interested to hear Mr. Baker on it (Confusion, TBTHOG, Behind Closed Doors, and Nineteen63 are among my fave tunes!)
It's a bit off topic, but CuanaD should add this to her list of Barneyisms: "I'm a complete and utter lazy bastard." Hey Barney, aren't we all. Maybe that's why they didn't quite get it up for Jetstream (but it does have a nice beat...the really corny part is when she says you won't need your baggage.)

'Her list'???
My wife will be interested to find that I'm not a man ;)
Any other Barneyisms anyone?

"No, no, I disagree... there's a place in Eastbourne..."
Sorry, wrong topic... should have said:
'Haven't you heard 'World In Motion' or 'that terrible track that ended Get Ready'?
Am I the only one thinking that Shellshock is a really great song, and that it is at least in the Top 20 of NO songs?
Hmmm, then I probably wouldn't make any friends here, saying that I prefer Shellshock over any of the WFTSC-tracks...
I'll think it over...
JETstream is a pain, really. It sounds like a 2005 version of Liar to me, except by the fact that Liar is FAR superior melodically.
And also has much better chorus, female vocals and groove.

okay, that was a bit over the top. There are songs on WFTSC that can compete with Shellshock. But still, it's a great song!
I agree. One of NO's more memorable lyrics, to me, is "it's never enough until your heart stops beating."
