What is your wish song to be played alive?

I just don't get NO, check out their setlists on the Technique tour - much more variety in terms of tracks used - back when computers/sequencers didn't have either the capacity or reliability that they do now, so what do we get now - less variety.
Lazy stubborn fucking twats. That's what they are.
Here to Stay
(and also would be really nice if they include "Close Range" on this year setlist ...

Agree 130% on HTS, but Close Range.... 
Equivalent of Run Wild in my mind....a nice round of sex interrupted by explosive diahrrea 
Now who's up for a nice big bowl of Jell-O Chocolate Pudding

some people pay for that experience, did you know?
As I have said several times before, replicating a tune written on one rig, on another is an abject nightmare. Parts which funk on one bass sound on one synth, fall flt on their arse on another. Having said that, I always preferred the more honest live versions of their electronic pieces (I can't be the ONLY person who thinkis BM sounds better with a voyetra playing the bass than the Moog Source on the record or the current karaoke version).
They COULD do it, repogram te tracks to play live, but with the record company's sick obsession with live gigs sounding like studio recordings, it's far more likely that any older machine based tunes will end up being further mime-along versions. :(

So sad...I always felt the early True Faiths (87-93), I've Got a Cock Like the M1, Shellshock, early 586s and countless others sounded different from the album, therefore more experimental, raw and fresh, sometimes better than the recorded version. I go to concerts to hear how songs sound in a different context.
Ahhh to be alive at an earlier time... :(
well said. Gigs are what a song really sounds like. Studio's give you the committee version :D

of course.
I burst into tears BIG TIME when Barney played that little pastiche of the string-pad from TPK over the end of BM in the Apollo, was one of the most special and perfect moments of my whole life.
EDIT: it's as good an argument against tape as any....if BM had been live ( or if Roger L did any more than press start and go for a fag), the BM bass could easily have been pulled out andwuite the little TPK improv could have been achived. But because New Order are no mimers like kylie and westlife, and because that's not what the record does....no dice, barney's inspiration cut off in it's prime.
Top 5 tracks they need to start playing/bring back again:
- Special
- Too Late
- Doubts Even Here
- Sabotage
- Here To Stay
Thank you. :)
Here to Stay. I saw them with the Chemcial Brothers in Oakland, Ca and was hoping they would play it. I wouldn't mind hearing New Order's cover of Vietanm. Peter Hook's basslines are beautiful on that track!!!
