Run by a country mile for me. Beautiful lush arrangement. Turn is too bland, and lyrics are a lot better for RUN. Still don't see the fuss over TURN and def. prefer the title track WFTSC.

Have to disagree with you on that, run has no real variety in it, it plods along, yeah the lyrics are good, but it just doesn't go anywhere, I'll agree that WFTSC is maybe better then turn (or maybe not that's very close) but both are better than run.
Im more attached and appreciative of Run as I personally feel Technique is New Orders finest album.
Turn is a fine song but I find the album harder to listen too. Plus I dont rate WFTSC as a song. Maybe its just me.
I vote for Run, simply because it meshes so well with the other technique tracks. Turn is equally beautiful, but it sounds rushed to me for some reason...
I love Turn, loved it from the first spin of WFTSC but come on, it's RUN man!!!! I LOVE RUN!!!!
Man you guys must have a better understanding of NO than me, because I think none of the songs from the last two albums compare that well to the 80s stuff.
Run run run
For some reason this just popped in my head...
Jim'll fix it for you, and you and you and you-oo-oo...
mmmm, been pondering this one,, 17 years on from run they make a song that is sublime as,, just goes to show how good they still are...probably turn cos its now and always liked new,new order.
and nobody gives a damm

Run run run
Yeah, albums from the '80s were much better, but as a song, "Turn" is very good. I still vote for "Run" though because it's one my favourite songs.
i prefer the 12" cover of Turn because it's more in keeping with Factory's minimalist approach.
When I first purchased Technique I thought 'Run' was the worst track on the album, however through the course of 19 years( My god is it that long ago!!!) the song has grew and grew on me.
'Turn' for me is classic NO and from the first play to the present day it brings me great pleasure on hearing it (It is in my top 5 NO songs, however I really had to think about this one..eventually plumping for 'Turn'.

anyway, turn for me.
I wouldnt say it has dated badly. I find movement to be the only record that dates badly.
