Can't believe nobody ever did this poll, unless my memory is bad today.
Sorry for it, I'm waiting for a damned hard drive to format and it takes forever, so I had too much time on my own

Really? I believe there is 2 of them though...
Hooky! He should not only play bass, but write the guitar parts. I vote Hooky for New Order Dictator. Bernard needs to retire, he should be demoted for awhile.

Who?
I feel sorry for Phil, as he's not likely to win this sort of poll - so he got my vote. Plus the Jammy bastard ended up with my dream job.
I think Steven is probably the fave from 'original' New Order, BTW - the quiet ones, you see..

Well, do I really have to say it?
Bernard and Peter... both did solid solo projects but are at their best when reunited.
Mr. Morris for his skills behind the kit, sequencer, and computer
Runners up:
Mr. Hook for being resident bass God (can't get that image of him going crazy on the edge of the stage at the Aragon out of me head)
Mr. Sumner for his heroic alcohol/drug intake over the years
Mr. Cunningham for bringing a youthful spirit to the band
Mrs. Gilbert-Morris for bringing some CLASS to the group (81-01)
Mr. Otto Que for giving us the dance moves and between song jokes we all deserve

The Other Two was far better than Monaco and the embarassing Revenge. "What Do You Want From Me?" was great, sure but Superhighways and The Other Two are light years ahead of the rest of Peter Hook's solo dreck.
Plus, I remember stories of dodgy sequencers overheating during live performances and Stephen Morris having to program them on-the-fly. What a legend.
