DOes Ultraviolence count? I think other than that only The Village, 586, and Ecstacy kind of. 586 the most out of any. And Blue Monday doesnt count, it was not on the original album. New Order I don't think really went the "dance" route fully till Low Life. That's when there was no turning back. They were still moreso ROCK on PCL.

All of them! Not that I would consider dancing to We All Stand.

Anyway, does it actually matter?

To me it matters. Fair enough?

I've been in clubs in the late 80's where Leave Me Alone was on, and loads were dancing. even moi.

PCL is as danceable as LowLife. No doubt about it. Maybe even more so.

I just danced to We All Stand last night, although no one but me would have wanted to see that anyway. :evil4:

Ultraviolence is in my NO top 20. Best three-note guitar riff ever.

I'm thirding the whole "You oughta see me in the car with this on" deal. Whenever I put on the record at home, it's the usual "It's 3 AM and I need to get creatve juices flowing let's listen to NewOrderCrackPC&L". If I'm not hyper by about The Village, I'm thinking something is wrong with my body.

I mean, I don't want to say it's the ideal of a drug album from start to finish, but... when you can pep yourself up and bring yourself down all on the same vinyl... :evil4:

Depends what you mean by danceable - The Village, 586, Ecstasy, Ultraviolence are 'dancey' in the traditional sense... But I'd prefer shuffling along to AOC and Leave Me Alone, more my style... :) As always, don't understand the hate for WAS, but agree that it may ideal for boogieing...

I suppose you could dance to any of them if you really wanted, but to me the only one that's "undanceable" is We All Stand.

i can't see how you could make the arguement that Low-life and Brotherhood have more dance songs than Power, Corruption, and Lies

Low-Life has "Perfect Kiss" and "Sub-culture", maybe "This Time of Night" as "dance songs"... "Love Vig" and "Sunrise" are "rock songs"... "Elegia" and "Sooner Than You Think" are "chill-out songs"... "Face Up" is "weirdo alt-country bass leftfield pop track"...

...what is the point in getting carried away with labeling things??

Once I'm really trashed, I'd even dance to modern day indie. They did play Ask and some other Smiths song tonight. :D

Power, Corruption & Lies is far more dance focused than Low-Life in my opinion.
