got no favourite at all...sorry..Maybe Here to stay was "prophétique" in a way.The band is still here in this new century and it's a kind of miracle. I really don't know what to think about their new material...After being very pleased by their return'album " get ready",WFTSC isn't (i think) a record history will remind.... It's nice, of course, NO is still with us and i'm still with them since 1980! Un miracle, je vous dis!:thumb:

"Guilt is a useless emotion" is the other one besides "Here to Stay" that I could have voted for. "Krafty" quite good too! :thumb:

Crystal, then Turn, then Here To Stay.

Looks as though this one is set for a head to head dance- off between the 2 principles in the voting, Crystal and Here to Stay...Should set up a final poll between these 2 and we'll see which 21st Century track is the most popular with the fans on NOOL.. I'll set it up now then.....

Here To Stay . Is such a timeless Sexy Tune .

Looking at the played set lists from the last few years it's tempting to pick OTHER with a JD tune. I do Love the Campy brilliance of I Told You So even if it first showed up on Subculture 85. So many things going on in that song and wouldn't accept from most any other Band. But it's them and it's great. WFTSC (the Album as a whole not just the Single) is formula New Order Perfection but doesn't always hit the strength of experimentation that earlier NO can hit and that can keep you on edge. EDIT: Don't know what To Say .. but have just listened to the above tunes and read a the other thread that follows this one .. Crystal. by a country mile.

Crystal is ruined by that silly Money-Honey couplet. Yikes, just brutal. Still great, other than that disaster.

Here To Stay also mixes in great lyrics with horrible ones, but not in the idiot savant way that made me like past goofy lyrics.

I'd go WFTSC because everything is damn good from lyrics, to melody to all aspects of the tune itself.

Turn is also up there. I'm also a big fan of Primitive Notion, Behind Closed Doors, the only fan of Slow Jam, At Close Range, Someone Like You, and a lot of WFTSC (some of which I admittedly loathe).

TURN

As it is to my hears the last synthesis of NewOrder and Joy Division they've written (the previous one in my opinion was Primitive Notion)
