Its by South (UK). There is also a group in the US called South. I think that's the direction they're heading. Hehehe

Indeed!

For me, a good cover is one that brings something new to a song... you make it your own, and it works.

I heard so many covers for the Community competitions... I think I can judge one now :lol:

This is not really a good one, it's not bad, but yes the beginning is interesting, but there is nothing else... and how can you claim to replace Hooky on BLT... the song will always be good whoever covers it, but it will never top the original.

If you want to hear real good cover versions, Sooner Than You Think by kREMLIN and ICB by C Bentley is the proof New Order songs can be improved. Both on http://www.myspace.com/neworderonline

This one is my personal favorite cover of BLT- there were only a few copies released as the band eventually thought better of it. Therefore, those few remaining copies are now very valuable indeed.

:D

Id quite like to see an Arcade Fire/NO collaboration. I think Arcade Fire are a very interesting combo.

But they cant make much money, wot with 17 band members!:yawn::lol:

Well, they are indie and have full control on their back catalogue... so trust me, they will. It's not like they entered a factory-like gimmick, they shopped their label who accepted their conditions, and they are that label's biggest hit by far...

Unless Win and Regine divorce of course...
