Can everyone please name 3 or more semi-underground/lost songs (from the 80's till now) that sound almost as cool as New Order? This is to find some new songs for an IPOD mix.

These are a few that are clips from http://musicdownloads.XXXXXXXXX.com.

Book of Love - Modigliani (Lost In Your Eyes) http://musicclips.liquiddigitalmedia.com/asf1/1/7/8/2/0001002871.wsx

ABC - Vanity Kills http://musicclips.liquiddigitalmedia.com/asf1/2/7/1/6/0000466172.wsx

Real Life - Catch Me I'm Falling http://musicclips.liquiddigitalmedia.com/asf1/1/0/5/3/0001093501.wsx

A Flock of Seagulls - Telecommunication http://musicclips.liquiddigitalmedia.com/asf1/1/8/8/2/0003492881.wsx

As cool as New Order or sounds like New Order?

Sounds like New Order - none!

As cool as New Order - none too! They are all inferior.

Anyway, here are the "inferior artist/tracks" you can consider that has that synth sound/genre that I think what you're looking for:

SSQ - Synthecide Human League - Don't You Want Me, Louise, Mirror Man, Love Action (I Believe In Love), Tell Me When Dead or Alive - You Spin Me Round, Brand New Lover Howard Jones - Like To Get To Know You Well, You Know I Love You...Don't You?, Life In One Day, New Song Depeche Mode - New Life, Just Can't Get Enough, What's Your Name, Flexible, Strangelove, The Meaning of Love A Flock Of Seagulls - I Ran Strawberry Switchblade - Let Her Go Propaganda - Duel Missing Persons - Words Kraftwerk - The Model Alphaville - Big In Japan A-ha - You Are The One, The Sun Always Shines On TV, Take On Me The Fall - C.R.E.E.P. Yazoo - Nobody's Diary, Don't Go Pet Shop Boys - Suburbia After The Fire - Der Kommissar

I'll get back once I remember more songs and artists.

Indeed!

David:

I'd recommend:

'Shine On', 'Christine', 'Real Animal' - The House Of Love Anything by 'Hang David' 'My Pal' - God 'Kicker Conspiracy', 'The Man Whose Head Expanded' and 'Eat Yourself Fitter' - The Fall

Also try stuff by 'Heartwear Process' 'The Trudy' 'The Cardiacs' 'Shrag' (All on MySpace) Anything by Kraftwerk, though you may want to avoid the 20+ minute stuff! 'Full Metal Jackoff' - Jello Biaffra & DOA 'P:Machinery' 'A Secret Wish' and 'Dr Mabuse' - Propaganda Anything by Karl Bartos Anything by The Subhumans

You don't really give a great guide as to your preferences though. These are all 'indie' tracks and bands that I like anyway. I've left out all the hardore punk or incredibly weird stuff, so hope you find a few there that you like
