Favorite New Order Member

Barney. No contest. Not even close.

Steve is the coolest. EVERYONE knows that - although some like to pretend otherwise.

They're all great, but my favorite is Hooky.

Daniel LaRusso

Barney!! not a great singer, but coolest voice ever.

Anna

I can't choose, they're all great

but the whole is even greater than the sum of its parts methinks :)

Oh come ON, it's Peter 'the god of bass' Hook, who else?

Although he does look like an old man as of late, really..

Eddie or Oz

Steve, he keeps his mouth shut, doesnt draw any attention to himself and does his job very well.

The Hookster, naturally. At the first of the 2001 Brixton gigs he came over to the front of the stage during YSF right in front of me and a group of lads. We were all screaming at him and frantically gesturing for him play his bass even lower (it was already around his ankles).

He just stared at us and sneered.

This is a bit rediculous don't you think? Fav New Order member? Well they're all great cause they all played a part in the contribution as New Order as a whole, they're all great.

Two genuine geniuses in this band,my Fave is Hooky

I thought Hooky and Barney graduated secondary school at bottom and second to bottom of their class respectively?

And Steve played clarinet.

Odds and education defying geniuses,not all genius comes from classroom studies,and we know their brands of genius don't.Making songs like temptation is a pretty powerful stroke of genius to my mind.The sound hooky makes with his bass, has to be at the very least,genius god like

Back to work Maya and Post on your own time!

Very difficult. Maybe it would be Bernard, he's the singer, he does guitar, keyboards, lyrics. Some amazing stuff with Electronic too. But I did vote Hooky. Best bassist ever, friendliest member of the band, and best solo album with Revenge.

Hook.

I just played Monaco's What Do You Want From Me, and it is frighteningly good, must have scared Sumner shitless.....

I doubt it. I love Monaco but it gets on my nerves that David was always trying to sound like Barney.

Maya, the problem is he does sound like Barney, even when he speaks, so he hasn't to try too hard. Anyway I like his voice, it's still different enough and no other could sing great songs like Shine like him...

Really? I believe there is 2 of them though...

Everyone of them is a genius, this changes as much as my favourite song. Today it is the King of bass guitar

Hooky...he really sets the stage!
