Well Maya, I'm in between votes.. I don't love it, but I don't hate it either... ![]()
I think it will sound better live...
Not too original, Bere just said this ![]()
Love it, nice Iggy Pop track. Great guitarbreak in the middle. I only don´t like the `hey!´ four times.

same here. don't love or hate it..a little pissed it got tacked on to the end of a near perfect album...would have made a great b-side.
good song. not very new order-ey, but still fun. sometimes it sounds good at the end of the album as a throwaway of sorts (see face up), but other times it seems out of place with no place it could fit.
I can't vote either. I don't like it that much, but I don't certainly hate it. It's alright, might have been a funny joke as a B side. Definitely shouldn't have closed the album (on which is totally out of place anyway)...
Crap is all I can say. Like a dodgy rip-off of dodgy early-80s post-punk twaddle. I always turn off my CD after Turn (well when I have played Turn twice of course).
before opening my gob I went and listenned again and found I liked it more than I thougt. Certainly it's not in character, but it smells of garage/bedroom jamabout, and good honest nobrainer incessant groove tune. Strip away the shiny Mega-corps funded smug as a slug production, and you have a warsaw track (ok, if you get rid of barney too)
I'm pissed off about it cos they didn't invite Bobby Gillespie over again to do special comedy backing vocals on it - bet he was sitting there at home getting a hard on whilst listening to it reflecting in despair on what could have been..... ![]()
I thought you said it was your favourite track Mikey, after all the title sums up your nightly status online doesn't it? ;)![]()
Yes....Working overtime(the song) does'nt irk me tho,would have been a better single than smegstream

No matter how i try to dodge the issue people keep dragging me in for another go.People in this forum,including your good self love chewing the fat,on J-I-Z being a shite chioce for a single
I'm ready to let it lie,unless it prevents a third single
then naturally I will be gutted as a bastard about it![]()
Would you be in agreement then that it's a good thing the same chimps weren't at he Helm When Mr Disco hit Dat machine then? JIZ as you so eloquently call it is a lovely bit of barneyness, involving a stupid collaboration, that turned out just fine, pleasant little JOKE track like Mr Disco. I rather like it, but I'd prefer it to be a true fans secret rather than out there in the open where it can be used against us the next time we try to preach to the unenlightened.
I agree it does'nt need Carol Vordaman to "do the maths".. Its not best choice single IMO.Let that be an end to it...
If you think it is, fine![]()
Great Iggy tribute, craps over Rock The Shack anytime. Bobby G shouldn't have been let in the studio & thankfully he wasn't this time.

Agreed.
Sounds like Bernard wanting to do a Mark E Smith impression while listening to Iggy Pop. Quality.

Take your pick: Subculture or Sunrise. Perhaps Senses? Actually, no, Senses is shit. Which is another S.
The worst thing since Rock the Shack - and that includes Draculas Castle and Guilt is.
They should have cut at least 3 songs from WFTSC, and this is one of them.

Hey that gives me fucking GREAT suggestion for a future New Order backing singer collab - why not draft in Carol Vorderman for a track on their next album? - that means New Order can then widen their appeal to Countdown fans as well - by way of a subtle tribute we can also have them sampling the 30-second Countdown clock riff for part of the riff for the single.....
:D
Don't love it or hate it, but I voted for hate it since if I had to choose one it'd faller closer to the bottom. It's an okay song - good for the summer festivals and even concerts. But it pales in comparison to every one of the other tracks on WFTSC.
It would be a better song with whoops replacing the Heys. Would sound more like New Order that way.
It's my least favorite track on the album. It seems out of place, although the remix of GIAUE closes the album nicely.
I can't wait for this one live
"where did it all go wrong? House music all night long" Great lyrics..![]()
