Alot of NO stuff sounds cheesy and dated. Id vote for Liar though. Thieves like us and Perfect Kiss have some cheesy keyboard and guitar riffs but thats a by product of being 80's recorded.

Yeah, but the Face Up reference sounds like a poor 'off the shelf' Stockaitkenandwaterman line.

In any case, I had to vote JET - despite the presence of SOTN, which is quite possibly my least favourite Neworder track of all time.

Liar, by a landslide, surely?

Those lyrics. That awful organ!

Pure cheese.

Quite surprised by some of the options - TBTHOG, cheesey? Eh?

No.

it's fucking brilliant! timeless perfection.

"World in Motion" ... my initial response was "is this a joke?" thou it does have its charm. "Run Wild" is just embarrassing.

I'm not English, so I don't see its point.

If your were you would, and you really wouldn't have voted for it.

It's obviously the J-E-T thing with Anna Manthing - NO's most blatant commercial venture to date.

Shitstream.

Awful song.

For some reason, State of the Nation always struck me as New Order trying to be New Order trying to be cool. I just don't like the song, but I do like the live versions. It is completely shambolic live - a true mess....fantastic. But the studio version and song overall, i could very much do without.

all worthy of cheesiet votes, but J-E-T has to be the cheesiest, it has the cheesy lyrics, cheesy stewardess thing, and cheesy special guest vocalist.

Fine Time makes me cringe

Maybe "State of the Nation", but not the edit version!!!

My vote, were the song there, would be for Subculture John Robie annihilation. It stinks worse than camembert :thumbdown:

Of those listed, it's Shellshock for me. It's so cheesy it's crackers.

Jizzstream would be third.
