certain songs I sometimes hear strike me as being something I would love to hear their take on, like "say something" by James. come to think of it, I would like to hear them play born of frustration as well, Barney would have a field day whith all those whooots! :nod:

teenage riot. a great song for hooky, and barney could sing thurston moore's part quite easily. they'd have fun with this one.

i'm sorry but thats pathetic, NO making covers!!!! thats for the likes of U2 to do , its for other bands to make covers of NO/Joydivision - i get insulted when i hear this sort of comment... :angry:

"boys don't cry" by the cure :wink:

Primal Scream's "Higher than the Sun". I know the band fancies it, and I think Hooky could throw down a great bassline to complement or even replace the pre-existing synth bassline.

Some Roses tracks, particularly Fool’s Gold and She Bangs The Drum. Barney and Brownie have the same vocal range.

Paint it Black! If Ian McColluch can do it, so can Barney! Also, wouldn't mind seeing Barney take on Come As You Are by Nirvana.

Barney could do creep by radiohead,that would be fun but i dont think he's got the voice to do the high bits!

:nuts:

yea, would be funny if barney did his whoops and whistles in it too - that would REALLY piss of the radiohead fans! :laugh:

I'd like to hear barney singing some monaco songs, shine & i've got a feeling would be great.

i wish theyed stop doing joy division covers though. :banghead:

Sympathy for the Devil

Aww yes!! That would be a brilliant cover.As would The Cure's "In Between Days",which always had a Hooky-like intro anyway.

yeah, would like to hear some of the better side project songs played at new order's live gigs - particularly What Do You Want From Me which is VERY New Ordery!

13 Sep 2005, 06:50

"In the Sun" by Blondie. It's chorus is a bit proto-New Order pop.
