WARNER'S PRESS RELEASE:
We fucked up the track listing for Item. Turn is not going to be on Item because a/ it's not a single, b/ theres no fucking video for it. We are fuckwits and we unreservedly admit this, that is why we say we are releasing the orgasm inducing WFTSC single on CD, DVD, 12" and 7" then we say it's just 7" with some crappy plastic wallets. We are sure you find this funny. We are also sure that you were amused by our little joke about 'additional' footage being added to the old corpse of NOStory that we've tagged onto the end of item. No doubt dumb Euro fuckwits will think that it's some kind of NOStory2, when actually we are speaking to the USA audience who only got the edit version in 1993 (even though it's a UK press release, but like we said, we're fuckwits). We also thought it rather entertaining to add 'Guilt' as a remix on the USA version of WFTSC and some other stuff as we were very sure that this would piss a lot of people off who hoped it might have made a proper release in it's own right.
We would just like to add that we have total respect for the fans and that you only have yourself to blame because we are trying desperately to emulate the modus operandi of Factory records.
P.S. Look after the plastic wallets- they'll be worth a fortune (smirk).
P.P.S. We told the band this strategy would make them lots of dosh... er... what do you mean i'm fired...?
P.P.P.S. (Warner UK) On October 3rd New Order will be releasing a definitive collection of all of their singles to date. Singles is the ultimate anthology of the works of one of the most exceptional and groundbreaking British bands to date- we are sure you've all conveniently forgot about Murder, Someone Like You, Video 586, Blue Monday 95 and Confusion 2002; we haven't, but we couldn't be arsed to add anything 'special' to the package (this all costs good money to make you know!).
