Most Underrated New Order Song?

What song by NO do you feel has been overlooked, or doesn't get the love it deserves? For me, it is probably Young Offender (though I'm a bit daft in that I love Republic), or perhaps Guilty Partner.

There are several. The OM under-rated ones are:

Movement - ICB PC&L - Ultraviolence Low Life - Sooner Than You Think Brotherhood - Way Of Life and Broken Promise Technique - Guilty Partner Republic - Everyone Everywhere Get Ready - Someone Like You (seriously, the first two mins of that are top drawer NO) and 60 Miles An Hour WFTSC - Hey Now What You Doing

Hurt or Murder, one of those two are underated.

many people seem to dislike "Turn the Heater On", but I've always thought it was a cool little cover showing moods that the band usually isn't able to do. sure Bernard can't sing, but then thats why we like him.

also the "586" version from the Second Peel Sessions is mint, love the dark mood and propulsive edginess of that track

also agree that "Murder" is underrated, shows what the band could have done if they hadn't become obsessed with being pop stars of a sort.

I'll probably get shot...... but I think Guilt Is A Useless Emotion underated.

Well, I won't be the one pulling the trigger. I like that one a lot, too. :blush:

I like oldmonkey's idea. By album, I'll go: Movement: Denial PC&L: Ecstacy Low Life: This Time of Night Brotherhood: Weirdo Technique: Guilty Partner Republic: Young Offender Get Ready: 60 MPH WFTSC: Krafty

I think that Republic and Brotherhood are the most underrated albums.

Ecstacy, Ultraviolence, Doubts Even Here, Love Less, Fine Time, Close Range, Run Wild... I suppose just the songs that get forgotten from the albums that I find out later I really like.

The instrumental Let's Go (or the 1985 vocal one), but that's more the band's fault than anyone else's.

Well, I think the only song off of those two albums that did well in the states was Crystal, but then New Order have never done too well here, for some reason. :shrug:

Let's Go

To be honest most New Order fans love Primitive Notion, Dream Attack, Lonesome Tonight... I don't think they're that underrated by those who know them
