such a good thing. krap?

wondering if anyone else finds this a stain on the illustrious musical past of the greatest band of the pop era?

to answer the question. no.

Definitely not - it's a mighty fine pop song...

It's a Good Thing

Crap indeed.

a Horrible Horrible Horrible Song

no, there's crap songs on all the albums, except maybe Technique and the Owens lambasted Low-Life.

sorry...fine time's rubbish. forgot about that one.

Filler

the worst new order song by a mile IMO

I love that song. It's a great song and it makes you feel good. That's what New Order's supposed to do.

For years it's been and is my favourite NO song.

You guys are insane. It's the best NO song in ages. I'm completely dumbfounded how any new order fan couldnt like it.

It's decent. Sounds a lot like Electronic with an extra dose of Hooky on top.

Vile

Can't see what the problem is that some people have with this song. Muppets. It's catchy, typically banal lyrics, Bernard loves it. Not their best, but wouldn't even get anywhere near the worst 20 they've done! We'll soon see, when the NO Cup starts next week!

i think it's a fantastic song. now the A-side on the other hand....

i'll second that!

Yeah, I wish it were released as a proper single being the title track, instead of being hidden on a re-released old single. :\ohwell:

My second favourite song is World in Motion.

Great song and a great surprise on the WIM single (and disc 5 of Retro)!

Oi! I don't think people are muppets for having differing taste to Barney. I personally think it's shit. It's pap for pap's sake. I've got a lyric about "shoes" in my head, and that's about as much as I remember about it. Am not a fan whatsoever.

Do what you wanna do Do what you wanna do Do what you wanna do Do what you wanna do Do what you wanna do Do what you wanna do Do what you wanna do Do what you wanna do Do what you wanna do

It's the EVIL :evil: father of Krafty! Good job Krafty took more after his Mother.

Its catchy and uplifting like a lot of the more recent stuff

Not one of my favourites but they've done far worse

Car park... 4:30 UK time. Consider it done.

am or pm?

I LOVE IT! You and whose army?

Such A Crap Song.

The chorus really gets drilled into your head, as a good pop song should, but the verses are pretty horrible. Got some good Hooky licks in there, but I'm having a love/hate affair with that vocoder vocal part. It's so cheesy it's almost good.

And what's with that synth intro? Didn't like every other song from "Get Ready" have that already, haha. For a band that helped pioneer electronic music in the 80's, I can't help but think that are unware of how to change the default sounds on those new Rolands.

i think its ok too, but i'll still have that fight thanks.

A wonderful pop song. Would sound great as single, certianly better than Krafty or Jetstream.

better than krafty? that's insanity. at least make a credible comparison like "better that young offender"....
