Get Ready vs Waiting For The Sirens' Call

I think we NEEDED Get Ready after Republic. For me, it had tonnes of energy and sounded fresh after the lame effort of Republic. I love the first 4 tracks but find that after this it gets a little 'samey'. Fortunately, (for me as everyone seems to hate it) Rock da Shack picks it up and it finishes with some classic NO.

That said, I voted WFTHSC. Mainly because every track is so different.

Hi, I just wanted to say that you all have inspired me to make a CD of my faves from GR and WFTSC ('01 -'05). I was first drawn to New Order 20 years ago, partially because of the beats, and I still love to dance (it's great exercise), so my CD was made with this in mind. Seems that my favorites are usually the danceable ones.

1. Behind Closed Doors
2. Crystal
3. Morning Night and Day
4. Dracula's Castle
5. Such a Good Thing
6. Here to Stay (full length)
7. Guilt is a Useless Emotion
8. Someone Like You
9. Close Range
10. Who's Joe? ll. Waiting for the Sirens' Call
11. Krafty
12. 60 MPH
13. Primitive Notion
14. Turn

Add Regret and Special and you could call it 'Waiting for the Republic to Get Ready'!

I was so grateful when Get Ready came along - thought NO had gone forever. But i think it misses tracks of the strength of Turn and WFTSC, so it has to be Sirens for me...
