1 Best bit, getting the CD off Muffy 3 weeks before the song came out:thumb:

2 The worst bit would be the choice of lyrics! I told Barney he shoulda done it about that dog.....for those of you who have forgotten, here's the lyrics Barney threw away.....

"Who is this dog, that follows me the little shit, he is scruffy the smelly mut, I did do find a bone, is on his mind

Like a daft dog, chasing bad cheeties barking so loud, and eating sweeties he'll drive you away, drive you insane so I removed, all of his teeth

The gumsy dog, looked ill to me a second look, the vet did see his mouth, was rotten inside a needle, removed his life

Look at that dog, stiff as a hard-on paws in the air, his bone's in my garden he'll no longer fart, no longer bark he shouldn't have followed me, back from the park;)

3 It's my shower / shaving song....before I go out I always have this song turned right up, and on repeat.....always puts me in a great mood to go out fer the craic with my mates:nod:

I like the radio edit version okay, but I prefer the Felix Da Housecat and Scumfrog mixes better; they make me drive just a little bit faster.

Worst thing was not being able to find a copy of the single until a month had passed after its release date.

Love it because it's a tune I'd like to hear in a club, but there ain't a chance in hell of that happening around here.

Rate it about 88%

Don't really follow pro sports (usually too bloody expensive and the athletes for the most part couldn't care less), so I go see the local college football team, Oregon, play, and have done so for the past 16 years.

  1. I like how it transitions into the chorus
  2. Very average song
  3. I don't think it's one of their best efforts. Feels very generic to me.
  4. 50%- I don't think there is a song by NO that I can rate under 50. I still enjoy listening to it.
  5. the american football team, the Baltimore Ravens

Hubertinio - how could you possibly believe Major boy could come up with anything like that? He's a daft fookin student - my lyrics would be far too hard for him to put together:lol: It'll be good to see the big eedgit next weekend though:D

I also have alternative lyrics to a few other songs.....but I'll save them for the right time;)

  1. The haunting "Here To Stay" vocals towards the end.
  2. The little "disco filler" in the middle so as Hooky can complain about his drum pads not working.
  3. I like it because of the vid. It reminds me of the film. It also puts the chills up the back of the neck. 4.85%. Couldn't stop playing it for a while.
  4. Nearest team to me is Millwall geographicly. However, I'm still a bit of a Forest fan at heart. Late 70s, Dad like Cloughie... no I don't get it either... :scratch:

okay...

here's my go at it

  1. The repetitive "Here to stay" chorus
  2. the damned remixes
  3. I just can't get this song out of my head-that's why I love it
  4. I'll give it an 86
  5. I'm an ardent supporter (and former employee) of the National Hockey League's Dallas Stars!!!!

now why couldn't the lazy arses have played this at finsbree????

Best bit on the main versions is during the breakdown from 3.28 to 3.40 even though it seems to stutter a bit. I still prefer the extended instrumental version.

Worst bit the drawn out bit on the Housecat mix

Love the production and hopefully it's the direction the next visit to the studio takes.

90% just listening to the extended instrumental version again and it's still doing it for me, despite mentioning it perhaps not having a long shelf life.

  1. The 'Here To Stay' runout at the end.
  2. What the hell were they doing to Barney's voice with the 'Blue Eyed Boy' bit? Bit messy in places, and, sadly, sounds faaar too 'eighties'.
  3. Indifferent. It's a throwaway pop song. Played Muffy's CD to death at the time, but quite frankly, don't really care much for it now.
  4. 55%
  5. Luton Till I Die. But also average 15-20 Arse'nal games a season because of easy access to tickets. And the fact they're also my local team.

  1. It has a nice element of electronica about it.
  2. The buttock-clenchingly embarrasing TOTP "performance".
  3. I love it because it's sooooo much better than RTS.

  6. Best bit is the 'Here to stay' vocals at the end.

  7. I agree with Mr Jarvis ... Bit of a throwaway pop song ... Don't get me wrong, I still like it but its not great. Not as good as the majority of Get Ready ... I think its a little to simple ... Not to much bite to it.

  8. I neither love it or hate it.

  9. 60%

  10. Used to follow Rugby League (Canturbury Bulldogs) but not really into it anymore. I'd have to say the Sydney Kings (basketball team).

1- Best Bit: The fact that they are issuing non album singles again. 2-Worst Bit: This was supposed to be a New Order Vs. Chem Bros EP, as often we have been shortchanged. 3- I love the return of sequencers and loops and machines I thought had died with Grrready. 4- 85% 5- I am not too interested in sports I guess I support Real Zaragoza and Stockport County in soccer and Real madrid in Basketball.

Best bit: the sinth near the end (just before the "We're here to stay" chorus) Worst bit: the background sinth at the beginning- NOT the intro, but just after the drums kick in Why I love it: 'cause it's the Order. At the beginning I was a bit disappointed but it grew on me. Haunting! Nevertheless, it shows why it wasn't on Get ready. NOT a classic, NOT a single! Better than average, though... Percentage: 75% Favorite team: SPORT LISBOA E BENFICA!!!!!!!!!! Wait... Christ! It's playin' on the radio right now! Honest! Spooky or what?

  1. "Like a bright light on the horizon" - nice slab of positivetivity there...

  2. Not really the fault of the song, but the TOTP performance really was a tadge 'Dads at the disco'

  3. Seemed a throwback to the days of the Order releasing a single, that had nothing to do with an Album - I shall choose to conviently forget the 24PP soundtrack at this point ;-)

It did however show a nod back to the days of a more 'electronic' sound (rather than band), with was missing on most of Get Ready.

  1. 66% - Not the best, but definately not the worst they have done.

  2. The most famous team in the world to wear shirt colours of red and blue - Aldershot Town FC...OK so a couple of Barca fans may argue with that...

Nope Jim...I had to dump them because while it was cool to tell everyone that I worked for the Stars, it got really old not being able to afford anything fancier than balogna sandwiches for lunch, and peanut butter for supper!11

  1. The chorus at the end, it is infectious with the "We're Here to Stay" chants. Reminds me that New Order IS here to stay!

  2. The worst bit is that it wasn't included on the album! It would've been fitting as an A-side and maybe putting "Run Wïld" as a B-side.

  3. I love this song because it sounds like the New Order of the past with the dance beats and familiar rhythms. I don't hate it one iota.

  1. I think it's the best thing they have done since Regret.

  2. I wish they were brave enough to give it a live outing, especially when you consider they have dredged Brutal up from the depths of nowhere.

  3. It's catchy and infectious - as soon as I heard it I loved it.

  4. 80%

  5. Manchester City of course :) Lancashire CCC as well, which is why it was special to see my heroes at the venue of my other heroes.

my bird (at the time) has a father that owned the club...so I had a wee bit of influence over the DJ...but it didn't hurt that he was a bit of an order fan himself...

we also did the Kylie/Blue Monday thing that weekend...
