Procession - without a doubt!

The lyrics on Your Silent Face are inspired!

I was unbelivably overjoyed when i heard it live at Brixton!!

Be nice to hear it at Finsbury of course - but with so many other forgotton treasures such as This Time Of Night and Face Up, Sunrise etc.. i kinda hope they resurrect another classic and dont play more than a couple of tracks from Grrready

Brutal of course :D

Seriously, lyrics are not a New Order trademark...

It was with Ian Curtis, but Barney's lyrics are poor, and it's ok with me.. sometimes he can manage to create a gem or two.

Just tell me the lyrics to Here To Stay are good and I'll shoot you :evil2:

Yea true, i kinda wanted to highlight the point that his lyric writing can have flashes of deepness and that elusive quality which turns a good song into a great song "hidden meaning" so it appeals to everyone on a personal level.

He does insist on stubbernly waffling on about messy relationships 99% of the time though!!

i know ill probably piss most you guys off for saying this but... i think that besides bizzare love triangle, age of consent, and some others, blue monday has some of his very best lyrics.
