Hurt TPK Mr Disco World Confusion

TPK only on the grounds that for years I just liked it, whereas it's now fast becoming my top NO track... Confusion on the grounds that I didn't hear the original version for years...

Like I mentioned before, when I realised that "Working Overtime" might be among the last of NO's output, I thought, Hey, maybe it's better than I originally thought it was.

I used to be somewhat apathetic toward "Leave Me Alone," but one day listening to it I got hit with how beautiful it is, and, as Linda Richman of SNL would say, it made me a little verklempt.

Most of Technique took time for me to appreciate! :\ohwell:

Krafty...Liked it at first,buzz on it lately. Weirdo Vietnam Lonesome Tonight The Village Sunrise Elegia were ones that never grasped me straight off,but over time..

I would have to say the whole of Substance, which I bought on the strength of True Faith, having never heard of New Order pre-1987.

I didn't really properly appreciate it until 2 years later, when having bought and instantly liked Technique, I decided to give it another go. I then gradually got to like TPK in particular, which I now think is fantastic and my favourite New Order song.

I have to admit that I didn't really like Technique when I first heard it. "6/10" was my considered opinion after the first few listens. Ahem,this is now my all time favourite album.

Songs wise:

Ceremony (until I'd heard it live!) Brutal EGG Dracula's Castle (once I got past the daft name) Subculture (Once I heard the Low Life & not Substance version)

Dracula's Castle (once I got past the daft name)

So with that, I think that makes me the only person who like the name "Dracula's Castle".
