Odd Man Out....They think it's all over. It is now!

Some New Order-related tricky teasers here - just for fun! See how many you can fathom out....

Which one in each of these lists is the odd man out and why?

1 New Order Happy Mondays Joy Division Revenge ??

2 Arthur Baker Martin Hannett Steve Osborne John Robie ??

3 Fac 73 Fac 83 Fac 93 Fac 103 ??

4 Movement Brotherhood Technique Substance ??

5 John Thomson The Stone Roses Ralf Little Caroline Aherne ??

6 Making Out Reportage Clocking Off Common As Muck ??

7 Regret (The Rest Of) New Order Power Corruption & Lies True Faith ??

8 Ceremony Bizarre Love Triangle Touched By The Hand Of God Atmosphere ??

9 Primal Scream Flowered Up The Charlatans Faith No More ??

10 New Order Happy Mondays Joy Division Revenge ??

(careful - this last one is a cheeky trick question!)

Have fun with all that grey matter! ;)

First off, I don't think Fac 83 was a NO single. BM was 73, Confusion was 93, and Thieves Like Us was 103.

Originally posted by Green First off, I don't think Fac 83 was a NO single. BM was 73, Confusion was 93, and Thieves Like Us was 103.

Correct now for the OTHERS!

Originally posted by Ricardo Fernandes > Originally posted by Green> First off, I don't think Fac 83 was a NO single. BM was 73, Confusion was 93, and Thieves Like Us was 103.

FAC 83 was a poster for 1 year of Haçienda. Well done!:D

#4 seems to be a bit obvious.....The first three are proper albums, while Substance is a collection.

1 & 10 are the same right?

Happy Mondays are the odd ones out since Hooky never played bass with them.

Total guesses, but here goes:

2. John Robie. He's only mixed New Order, not produced them.

3. John Thompson. Ralf Little Played Peter Hook, Caroline Aherne was married to Peter Hook and the Stone Roses were produced by Peter Hook.......leaving John Thompson who has nothing at all to do with Peter Hook.

4. Clocking Off. New Order or various parts of New Order provided music for the rest.

5. The Rest Of New Order. You're proud to have the other three in your collection.

1 New Order Happy Mondays Joy Division Revenge ??

Revenge are shit? ... no, HM's only band without a NO member.

2 Arthur Baker Martin Hannett Steve Osborne John Robie ??

Steve Osbourne is only producer who hasn't produced NO.

3 Fac 73 Fac 83 Fac 93 Fac 103 ??

As mentioned.

4 Movement Brotherhood Technique Substance ??

Substance is a greatest hits album, others are new material.

5 John Thomson The Stone Roses Ralf Little Caroline Aherne ??

The Stone Roses are not immediately linked to NO

6 Making Out Reportage Clocking Off Common As Muck ??

NO did incidental music for all of the above except Reportage, which they were once in.

7 Regret (The Rest Of) New Order Power Corruption & Lies True Faith ?? True F

8 Ceremony Bizarre Love Triangle Touched By The Hand Of God Atmosphere ??

BLT is only album track.

9 Primal Scream Flowered Up The Charlatans Faith No More ??

10 New Order Happy Mondays Joy Division Revenge ??

Revenge are shit.

(careful - this last one is a cheeky trick question!)

Have fun with all that grey matter! ;)

Originally posted by Huntsman Steve Osbourne is only producer who hasn't produced NO.

I'd like to blank it out as well Hunts but Osbourne surely twiddled the knobs on Get Ready did he not?

Shit cakes. Your right.

Even when I posted it I thought, no, it is incorrect. Answer is this - all are alive except the late Martin Hannett.

The real tricky one is thus:

Regret (The Rest Of) New Order Power Corruption & LiesTrue Faith ??

Originally posted by Huntsman Shit cakes. Your right.Even when I posted it I thought, no, it is incorrect.Answer is this - all are alive except the late Martin Hannett.The real tricky one is thus:Regret (The Rest Of) New Order Power Corruption & LiesTrue Faith ??

PC & L - everything else had remixes as part of the product.

Excellent!

as mentioned before Hunts, Peter Hook produced Fools Gold for the Stone Roses so there is a neworder link.

Originally posted by Old Blue Total guesses, but here goes:5. John Thompson. Ralf Little Played Peter Hook, Caroline Aherne was married to Peter Hook and the Stone Roses were produced by Peter Hook.......leaving John Thompson who has nothing at all to do with Peter Hook.

ABSOLUTELY SPOT ON MATE!! 100%!! EXACTLY the answer I was looking for!

And some of you got Q3 right as well - so well done to those of you!!

As for some of the others (Q1, Q4, Q7 and Q8 in particular)- I've noticed you have given some answers that can be regarded as correct in a way, BUT, let's face it - they're rather obvious, and sadly NOT the ones I'm looking for - they just require a bit more thought - the answer to Q4 is particularly interesting especially if you reside in the UK (clue!) .

Keep 'em coming then! ;)

Q4 - they were playing dates in the US at the release time of each album...

I was trying these questions early this morning and i think although i got some of the POSSIBLE answers HUBERT had other harder answers.This is a great post HUBERT Some of the proper answers i had NO idea over.:D Rocket Mick

Originally posted by ShugZV Regret and True Faith both peaked at Number4, so I'll say that PCL did as well, which makes The rest of the odd man out

SHUGZV according to my GUINESS BRITISH ALBUMS PCL DID peak at number FOUR,in the charts for 29 weeks.Clever sod:D

Originally posted by ShugZV Regret and True Faith both peaked at Number4, so I'll say that PCL did as well, which makes The rest of the odd man out

WELL DONE THERE, LITTLE FELLA!!

Chartwatchers take note! Like Shuglet says: Taking the UK Albums and Singles Charts into consideration, True Faith made #4 in 1987, Likewise, Regret matched this peak in 1993, Power Corruption & Lies was New Order's first top 10 album - making #4 in 1983....which leaves (The Rest) of New Order - which on re-entry into the chart (after the original (The Best Of) also made #4 !!) managed to make only number 5 - thus this one is the odd one out!

That's Questions 3, 5 and 7 answered correct then!! :)

Awww... cheers fer that me aad radgie! Anyway - seeing that YOU know so much trivia about the band - I'm surprised you haven't been answerin' more of them...! ;)

Ok, time for another wild stab in the dark!

4. Movement - it's the only one that wasn't released straight away on CD.

5. Ceremony - wasn't released as a single in America.

4. Technique - all the others have numbers on the cover.

8. Touched - the others have all been re-released at some stage, haven't they ?

4- Technique It was recorded in Ibiza while the others were recorded in Blighty.

Originally posted by Budvar Huber 4- Technique It was recorded in Ibiza while the others were recorded in Blighty.

According to the band(Morris I think) they only recorded a few hi-hats in Ibiza.

Originally posted by Al Jarvis > Originally posted by Easy E> Q4 - they were playing dates in the US at the release time of each album...

They were playing UK dates at the time of Bro'hood's release (same week as Malvern, T&C, etc), and closest gigs to Technique's release were the French gigs, Jan 89. Probably right on the Substance front - Bunnymen tour? Can't comment on Movement. What month was that?

Movement was November 81. I meant that there was a US tour with each album, rather than the precise week of release !

So which one are you saying is the odd one out, then?!!

Technique - there wasn't a US tour within a month of the album release.

Originally posted by Al Jarvis Techically speaking then, there were also US tours for Low-Life (Aug 85), Get Ready (Area:One), Republic (Aug 93) and PC&L (whenever they played the Paradise Garage, etc - Summer? 83).A.Pedant

Don't start the Septics off on wanting tour dates again ! They whinge enough as it is !! (and when it was)

Does anyone know if NewORder are going to tour Amerikkka soon? I just love Regret and Blue Monday and would love to see them within close proximity of my favorite McDonalds and Starbucks. With President Bush in office our country is so much safer than Britain who has a liberal Leader. NewOrder would be safe here. We can use Stevens tanks to patrol our borders. Can you tell me when NewOrder are going to come to America?

Nice one Brian !!

Originally posted by Easy E 4. Technique - all the others have numbers on the cover.

VERY good try there E !! ;) You got the RIGHT ALBUM there - but the wrong reason! Give it some more thought, it's a pretty credible answer actually (bearing in mind I emphasised that UK folks will get this probably better) - I'm sure you'll get it eventually!

Originally posted by Old Blue Ok, time for another wild stab in the dark!4. Movement - it's the only one that wasn't released straight away on CD.8. Ceremony - wasn't released as a single in America.

4. Good try Blue, but Easy E has also got the correct album - just the wrong reason.... ;)

5. Likewise - the correct choice but the wrong reason (it's actually a lot more obvious this one believe it or not!)

Originally posted by ShugZV Number 4 Technique....was it because it was the only album of the 4 to go straight to Number 1 in the charts?Number 6 Is it Common as muck? I thought Steve & Gillian done music fer the other 3Number 8 Is it BLT....was that the only one not to make the Top 40?Number 2 John Robie? although he remixed Sub-Culture it wasn't on general release (It came free with Record Mirror)

No.4. No! Think again! carefully!

No.6. Wrong choice I'm afraid.

No.8. Completely wide of the mark!

No.2. Ditto again...

Have yerself a few jars Shuglet - you might be able to clinch it then! ;)

Is John Robie responsible for the Record Mirror Mix?

Q8 - Ceremony - the only song neworder should NOT drop from the set next time out

Both of you are not trying hard enough!!!

I don't believe you! ....Excuses excuses excuses.... :D

hubert, the man with the trivia. tried one before...way too tricky for me. not gonna bother cuz i don't wanna show how little i know.

Originally posted by Chris Nash Q8.- No video made for Ceremony?

WELL DONE CHRIS!!

Did you realise ah had ta get oot of bed to check this thread tonight? (Sorry - blame it on me havin' terrible problems sleeping lately - hence the late late nights - too much excitement what with the imminent arrival of our second bairn due in a week or two... )

So now you clinched that one - how about unravelling the others (especially the elusive Question Number 4!!!) ;)

(jeez, I think I need to start cuttin' doon on the cigs as well...)

SMOKING?

it's bad for your kids!

Originally posted by Chris Nash Q4. Movement - last Martin Hannett production? Or the only one NOT to be released on CD when first released?

You mention CD formats .... that's a very good try [well, it CAN qualify as a correct answer even!] but thinking a little further on those similar lines (i.e. formats) will take you to the PROPER correct answer that I'm looking for.... you're so nearly there!! ;)

Think again: Why is the answer to Q.4 "Technique"??

Oh hell - I give up too - here here:

Answer to Q4: "TECHNIQUE" is the odd one out because it was never issued in the fabled FACTORY LIMITED EDITION WHITE BOX CASSETTE version.

All the other three titles were initially issued in this format.

Now that one's settled - there's still another five or six answers left to unravel.....

Can we have a recap of the ones left unanswered please? this is getting rather confusing! but a great thread :)

Cheers mate for your comments !

And yeah - I'll just mention again that questions 3, 4, 5, 7 & 8 have now been answered (Q4 admittedly by me - just to speed up the process really, although I woulda liked one of yer to have got that one on your own!).

These questions still await solutions!

Q1. New Order/Happy Mondays/Joy Division/Revenge Q2. Arthur Baker/Martin Hannett/Steve Osborne/John Robie (this one is so obvious as well - probably the easiest one of the lot!!) Q6. Making Out/Reportage/Clocking Off/Common As Muck Q9. Primal Scream/Flowered Up/The Charlatans/Faith No More Q10. New Order/Happy Mondays/Joy Division/ Revenge (different answer from Q1 !!)

Right then....back over to you!

Q1 - Joy Division never played the Hacienda (did Revenge?)

Martin Hannet produced NewOrder while the others did remixes. I thought someone got this right already.

Q9 I'm going to guess that one of them has never been on the same bill as New Order, so without researching I'll say Flowered Up.

Originally posted by blau montag Martin Hannet produced NewOrder while the others did remixes. I thought someone got this right already.

You're nearly there! But you've only got half of the answer!

Originally posted by Old Blue Q9 I'm going to guess that one of them has never been on the same bill as New Order, so without researching I'll say Flowered Up.

You've got the right band - Flowered Up - but the wrong reason. Why Flowered Up? Okay, here's a clue: think titles (shite - that's probably a dead giveaway now)

Originally posted by Chris Nash Q2. Martin Hannett - Produced both Joy Division AND New Order - the others only did New Order stuff. (Arthur Baker didn't just remix, he co-wrote and produced 'Confusion')

YOU GOT IT CHRIS! Well done!

Any other takers? C'mon, let's not lose the momentum now - only four more answers to go! ;)

Rocket Mickster - why aren't you joining in? :( Shame on yee!

Originally posted by Hubert Mickle Any other takers? C'mon, let's not lose the momentum now - only four more answers to go! ;)Rocket Mickster - why aren't you joining in? :( Shame on yee!

Still trying HUBERT but can't think were you are coming from!Anyway how come you aint asleep? :D

Q6 Is it CLOCKING OFF cos the OTHER TWO did the music for the OTHER THREE.:D

Q9. Primal Scream/Flowered Up/The Charlatans/Faith No More

Flowered Up is the only band that doesn't have a song or album with the same tilte as an New Order song.

Primal Scream - Vanishing Point The Charlatans - Weirdo Faith No More - Angel Dust

Flowered Up come close though with Sunshine.

Q1. New Order/Happy Mondays/Joy Division/Revenge

Revenge is the only one that didn't have Martin Hannett truning the knobs at one time or another.

One of the answers must be that Revenge were rubbish?

And a further point must be made that it appears the Other Two seem deemingly so completely insignificant that they did not even make the neworder related compendium of questions!

Originally posted by ROCKET MICK Q6 Is it CLOCKING OFF cos the OTHER TWO did the music for the OTHER THREE.:D

WELL DONE MICKEY LAD!

See? I told yer ye could do it if ye made the effort!

"Clocking Off" is indeed the odd one out - absolutely NO relation to "Making Out" (which DID feature New Order-composed music) despite being an uncannily similar factory-shop-floor type of comedy drama.... The series also which featured Nicola Stevenson as one of the main characters - she was the lass who played the Farnham's nanny Margaret, who once snogged Beth Jordache, in "Brookside" of course!

100 PER CENT MY GOOD MAN!!! EXACTLY THE ANSWER I WANTED!!!

Good eh?? ...so....shame on all the Brit contingent for not knowing that one! ;)

Awreet folks - there's just TWO answers left to get now, and hilariously enough it's Questions 1 and 10 which are identical but have two wildly differing answers.... :D Remember also, that number 10 is a cheeky one - so good luck - and see you at the finishin' line !!

And don't forget KEITH ALLEN was the main guy in MAKING OUT getting caught shagging the older woman.I watched this ALL. Great series.:D

Originally posted by Bart Dupré Q1. New Order/Happy Mondays/Joy Division/RevengeRevenge is the only one that didn't have Martin Hannett turning the knobs at one time or another.

Continent or not, this should be the answer to either 1 or 10.

Originally posted by ROCKET MICK And don't forget KEITH ALLEN was the main guy in MAKING OUTgetting caught shagging the older woman.I watched this ALL.Great series.:D

Do you remember what she was called by any chance?

And which characters did you like/despise the most?

I thought that Bella Grout (what a name!) was a complete and utter bitch - SO Thatcher-like it was untrue...and remember what Margi Clarke ("Queenie") did to her poodle dog in revenge?? THAT WAS FOOKIN' PRICELESS MAN!!

I even remember the EXACT words she snarled as she took that bitch's mutt from the office and shoved it into her car to ...um..get "intimate" with her and Chunky's own lustful hound.....

"right..and as for you, doll, you just get those lallies movin' before I skin yer for a bog seat cover!!" :D

And when Bella got wind of this and saw her dog re-emerge looking bedraggled, she yelled out - "What have you done to her! She looks like the wreck of the Bismarck!!" Heh heh heh..

Ahhh.....but they DID - see Question 6 as it now happens! ;)

No but thanks for the memories ,it is so long since i have seen this and don't have cable or Sky so have seen no reruns.Just a great series and at the end of the first episode when i saw MUSIC BY NEWORDER(not the OTHER TWO then!) it just made it all so GREAT.In chase or moving scenes then STEPHEN'S drumming would be heard.Classic.. Once again great thread HUBERT and i had no idea on most but wanted to give others a chance on this thread instead of my usual taking over the threads that i normally SPAM

Can I ask for a stewards enquiry? I gave that answer over a week ago!!! :)

Originally posted by Old Blue Total guesses, but here goes:2. John Robie. He's only mixed New Order, not produced them.5. John Thompson. Ralf Little Played Peter Hook, Caroline Aherne was married to Peter Hook and the Stone Roses were produced by Peter Hook.......leaving John Thompson who has nothing at all to do with Peter Hook.6. Clocking Off. New Order or various parts of New Order provided music for the rest.7. The Rest Of New Order. You're proud to have the other three in your collection.

Yes you did...so u win a TURNIP :D

Originally posted by **Old BlueCan I ask for a stewards enquiry? I gave that answer over a week ago!!! :)

Ooops - shiiiiite - so ye did an' all, me good man - I'm so sorry to overlook that :o :o - and that's doubly unforgivable cos you got Question 5 right and I picked up on that straight away! Hoo the HELL did ah miss THAT one?!?!?! Fook me - I blame me drinkin' too much noo - it's obviously impaired me concentration.... ;)

Okay - belated to ye Mr Blue - no hard feelin's - yer one of the "swots" on this thread anyway! Gettin' more than a fair few right! ;)

Reet - now for Q1 and Q10.... but in the meantime, there's this to contend with:

Originally posted by Bart Dupré Q1. New Order/Happy Mondays/Joy Division/RevengeRevenge is the only one that didn't have Martin Hannett truning the knobs at one time or another.

...Which - technically is a correct answer as well [For QUESTION 1 that is (fook me ageen this is gannin' awkward!)] - but the REASON I'm looking for is a hell of a lot more OBVIOUS than that one!! Put it this way Huntsman was sort of sniffin' round the right tree when he let on that Revenge were shite!

Revenge only released one album (thank you peter). Revenge are the only band to have a song titled Pineapple Face.

Re: Q1 & Q10.....

Don't tell me y'all still want some more clues this late into the day?? ;)

Still stuck on Q11...give us a clue?:D

Question 1: Joy Division. The other three bands had female backing vocalists?

Question 10: Joy Division again. The other three bands had crap lead vocalists?

Originally posted by Chris Nash Q1. Revenge only ones NOT to have a UK Top 40 chart success. (i.e. they were shite, but still better than most of the crap in today's charts).NOW do I get a Scooby snack?

WHAT TOOK YEE SO FRIGGIN' LONG!!??!!

SCOOBY SNACK x 10 for you - yer swot! Well done too for being the most determined of the bunch here an' all my friend! All you've got remaining now is to give a different answer to the same question for #10 and you will be officially designated the undisputed CHAMPION of this teaser! ;)

By the way, the answers posted by the guy above you looks like they could be correct in their own peculiar way! But yours was the answer I was looking for - not only did Revenge fail to make the top 40 but THEY NEVER HAD ANY OFFICIAL UK CHART ENTRIES AT ALL IN THEIR ENTIRE EXISTENCE!!!

So here we are then....it's cliffhanger time.... just one more correct answer left to go... Q10. Who's able and willing to rise to the final challenge then?? ;)

Bit fookin' obvious, but Hooky never played Bass in Happy Mondays...

Dear knaas....Chris - YOU'VE been losin' sleep over this thread? What aboot me?? I'm just literally three or four DAYS away from bein' a fatha for the second time - so yee can imagine the number of sleepless - and very very late - nights I've been havin', bein' barely able ta contain my excitement and anxiety!.... This teaser is the least of my worries!

Anyway - Easy E went for a very obvious answer but sadly this isn't the correct solution to the last question. I have to tell you that this last answer is a very cheeky and sneaky one. But I will give you a clue in an attempt to point you folks in the right direction..... here goes.....put yer lateral thinking caps on now.....

"Chicken In A Basket".....

Now good luck to yers! ;)

Did REVENGE play the CABARET SCENE!? :D

Doh!!

You're slackin'..... come on.... I know you can get it eventually..... think!...think!!.....THINK!!!!.... ;)

Originally posted by Hubert Mickle Doh!! You're slackin'..... come on.... I know you can get it eventually..... think!...think!!.....THINK!!!!.... ;)

:o Jesus! Yee got a memory longer than that of an elephant - yer ain't gonna let that one lie, are yee?? ;)

Joy Div - All the others played in America

Originally posted by Easy E Joy Div - All the others played in America

I thought they only invented SOUP IN A BASKET!

Okay then folks, better dust off this teaser for what I hope will be one of the last times before a life in confinement with nappies an' feedin' bottles an' cribs beckons for the long haul.... ;)

As a tribute to the good old chart run-downs of yore I will now recap through all the correct answers and the brainy folks who posted them before I leave you with the last - as yet still unanswered - final Question 10 to ponder over.....

1 New Order / Happy Mondays / Joy Division / Revenge ??

A. = REVENGE. They never had any hits. Correctly answered by Chris Nash.

2 Arthur Baker / Martin Hannett / Steve Osborne / John Robie ??

A. = MARTIN HANNETT. The only one to produce both Joy Division and New Order. Correctly answered by Chris Nash

3 Fac 73 / Fac 83 / Fac 93 / Fac 103 ??

A. = FAC 83. The others were New Order singles, whilst this was the number for a poster for the Hacienda's 1st Birthday. Correctly answered by both Ricardo Fernandes and Green.

4 Movement / Brotherhood / Technique / Substance ??

A. = TECHNIQUE. The only one of the four that was NOT issued in the special Factory white cassette box edition on its initial release. Unfortunately none of you got the answer to this one I was seeking, but special mentions to a few of you who supplied highly capable alternative reasons for this particular album being the odd one out.

5 John Thomson / The Stone Roses / Ralf Little / Caroline Aherne ??

A. = JOHN THOMSON. The rest were all in some way directly linked with Peter Hook. Ralf Little played him in 24 HPP, Caroline Aherne was once married to him, The Stone Roses had a single produced by him. Well done to Old Blue for getting that one!

6 Making Out / Reportage / Clocking Off / Common As Muck ??

A. = CLOCKING OFF. The others all had music written by The Other Two or members of New Order. Correctly answered by Old Blue and the Rocket Mickster

7 Regret / (The Rest Of) New Order / Power Corruption & Lies / True Faith ??

A. = (THE REST OF) NEW ORDER. The others all peaked at number 4 in the UK Charts - The Rest Of only getting to no. 5 on its reissue as a companion to (The Best Of) Well done to ShugZV for gettin' this one.

8 Ceremony / Bizarre Love Triangle / Touched By The Hand Of God / Atmosphere ??

A. = CEREMONY. No video made for this single. Correctly answered by Chris Nash.

9 Primal Scream / Flowered Up / The Charlatans / Faith No More ??

A. = FLOWERED UP. The others all had singles or albums sharing titles with New Order album tracks: Primal Scream - Vanishing Point; Charlatans - Weirdo; Faith No More - Angel Dust. Correctly answered by Bart Dupré.

......and so there we have it!!

Honourable mentions must also go to Easy E, Huntsman and Al Jarvis for their valiant attempts at unravelling the answers.

But champion of the entire teaser so far has to be CHRIS NASH for getting three correct answers and three "almost correct" solutions as well into the bargain! Well done that man!

So.....who's going to do the honours and excel themselves in gettin' the final remaining - albeit rather cheeky - poser then?

Here it is again....

10 New Order / Happy Mondays / Joy Division / Revenge ??

Which one is the ODD MAN OUT and why??

Clue: "Chicken In A Basket"

See yers at the finishin' line..... and this time it's final!!! ;)

Originally posted by Chris Nash It's 02:40 and I'm still thinking about #10.21 days without sleep... ... Hubert me boy, I hope your new kid exacts the correct 'REVENGE' on our behalf.Congratulations mate!

Cheerz me aad marra .... the "revenge" exacted by our Thom is sweet all right - he's only got us runnin' aroond as a result of his clivvor way of gettin' through more nappies per day than ye could shake a rattle at! (check the other thread elsewhere!). And however did ye guess that I had 21 days withoot sleep, man? Are you a psychic now an' all?? ;) :D

Anyway - back ta the nitty gritty - your psychic powers have failed to secure you that elusive last answer unfortunately. Good try though. Looks like all the other buggers have aal but given up on this teaser now...

Keep it comin', trooper!

Happy Mondays - no inscriptions on run-out grooves.

This page took AGES to load!! Anyway - I'll give it another shot. is it JOY DIVISION ? The others made it to the USA?? Hmmmm....

Originally posted by the perfect kiss dammit Karl...that is indeed a brilliant answer...don't know if it's what he's looking for...but I'll give you a big up for that one!!!!

Hadn't I already said that further up ?

Has nobody else tried to fathom out this last answer yet? I'm intrigued now as to what it could possibly be... if it isn't what I have suggested already. Where has the thread starter gone, doesn't he check in here to see if anyone's got the correct answer or anything?

Oh well..... :(

Originally posted by Karl Gregory This page took AGES to load!! Anyway - I'll give it another shot. is it JOY DIVISION ? The others made it to the USA?? Hmmmm....

Well it appears you got the right band - but the wrong reason why it's Joy Division. C'mon everyone, what's wrong with ye all? I disappear for a few weeks and STILL no one has bothered to unravel this last one - Chris Nash - I'm countin' on YOU to clinch this, but you've been conspicuous by your absence here.... ;)

...how disappointing - call yerself JD/NO fans??

I may have my reasons to not be here as often as I used ta be, but you folks have got naa excuse - you're not tryin' hard enough! So come on, let's put this fookah ta bed!!

is it that Joy Division never had a women/women backing singers..??

sorry DoH!.....woman/women backing singer/s

is it that the Mondays never played the Paradiso in Amsterdam?

Well I'm not much of a trivia buff by any means - but I've just scoured this thread with interest....

if Joy Division is the right pick could it have something to do with the fact that there were never any dance remixes of Joy Divsion songs? I presume Revenge had some remixes releasedas well.

Actually, I've just remembered...wasn't "Love Will Tear Us Apart" rereleased in 1996 in a new version called "Permenent Mix" ? There was also a new Joy Division compilation around the same time. Maybe that now discounts my earlier answer above.... oh well...

Is the answer anything to do with food? Its a total guess but New Order have a song called Slow Jam, Revenge have Pineapple Face and Happy Mondays have Judge Fudge or even Tart Tart. Therefore the odd one out would be Joy Division.

Well, you could be onto something there Loraine - after all further back a clue was given - it said "Chicken In a basket" - so that suggests something to do with food surely? The signs are that this last answer is a trick answer so we're probably looking at something a bit off the wall... I still think it's something to do with remixes though - it's niggling at the back of my head.

Joy Division - no remixes... surely???

Sorry for straying a bit off topic but I had been away for a while and had not realised me ole namesake's son Thom had already come into being.

CONGRATS HUBERT & CHARLEY!

All the best for the four of you and my best wishes of peace and happyness for little Thomas.

Didn't Joy Division have a song about fishmarkets though ? Dead Soles anyone :D

Now THAT is funny mate!!

But I still stand by my remixes suggestion ... when are we going to bet some more clues or hints?

Right - I'll give it another shot... If Joy Division are now the odd ones out, could the reason be that they alone have only had a BOX SET released to date? Seeing as we're still waiting for the definitive New Order one.

Is that answer obvious enough? Or am I pissing in the wind again...?

Blaady hell..... two months away and over 2000 views of this thread, yet naa-one has managed to work out what the last answer is!! I'm ganna have ta trawl through the last few replies and set everyone straight before considering revealing the elusive last answer to Question number 10......

Originally posted by howard lord is it that Joy Division never had a women/women backing singers..??

Hmmm, I see your point, but not the answer I was looking for sadly....

Originally posted by Mark McKellar-Harding is it that the Mondays never played the Paradiso in Amsterdam?

Wrong band I'm afraid!

That's pretty close, but not the right reason....

Interesting slant on the whole thing there Lorraine, but sadly it's another case of right band, wrong reason!

Aww, thanks a million compadre - did you get the email I sent you ages ago in reply?? BTW - why haven't you been trying to crack this last answer matey??

It's too obvious, and sadly not the right answer....

Aw coom on everyone..... why d' ya think Joy Division is the Odd Man Out?? "Chicken In A Basket" was the clue..... Some lateral thinking would then suggest that if all these four bands had to ref.......

does this have something to do with the 'kentucky fried chicken' reference in 24 HPP in the factory boardroom, which featured the 'leaders' of revenge, new order and happy mondays, but not joy division, i.e. hooky, barney, and shaun ryder, but not ian? (erm, i think hooky and barney were in that scene )

just a shot in the dark.... :D

It looks like we're all running around in the dark here as our host has posted in but still not revealed the final answer, what a tease..... Hey - how about telling us the answer mate!

:(

Chicken in a basket - casket

What are you implying Big Dipper.... that's a little cryptic... oh hang on a minute... scratch: I see what your'e getting at... :

Joy Division = dead lead singer?

is that it?? Is that the right answer? Or is it still too obvious to be the reason Mr Huberts looking for...?

ooh, that's a good one, big dipper! could we have it, ladies and gentlemen? please tell us!

neato, mr. webmaster!

and come on mr. mickle, where the hell are you, sir?

Yeah - I'm getting impatient as well - the elusive host seems to take great pleasure in teasing us.... well - this IS a teaser after all - but I think he's takeing it a bit TOO literally here tut tut, ...

COME ON! WHAT IS THE ANSWER? WE'VE BEEN HERE AGES NOW!

Originally posted by Huntsman 1 New Order Happy Mondays Joy Division Revenge ??

Revenge are shit? ... no, HM's only band without a NO member.

2 Arthur Baker Martin Hannett Steve Osborne John Robie ??

Steve Osbourne is only producer who hasn't produced NO.

3 Fac 73 Fac 83 Fac 93 Fac 103 ??

As mentioned.

4 Movement Brotherhood Technique Substance ??

Substance is a greatest hits album, others are new material.

5 John Thomson The Stone Roses Ralf Little Caroline Aherne ??

The Stone Roses are not immediately linked to NO

6 Making Out Reportage Clocking Off Common As Muck ??

NO did incidental music for all of the above except Reportage, which they were once in.

7 Regret (The Rest Of) New Order Power Corruption & Lies True Faith ?? True F

8 Ceremony Bizarre Love Triangle Touched By The Hand Of God Atmosphere ??

BLT is only album track.

9 Primal Scream Flowered Up The Charlatans Faith No More ??

10 New Order Happy Mondays Joy Division Revenge ??

Revenge are shit.

(careful - this last one is a cheeky trick question!)

Have fun with all that grey matter! ;)

Don't forget yo...Peter Hooky man turned the knobs on Elephant Stone!!!

Chunks - if you bothered to check and read carefully every single answer that has been posted (like I did - and believe me it took me ages before i could start contributing to this thread!) you will find that on the first page, it has a;lready been mentioned that Peter Hook produiced the Stone Roses... ;)

I just wanna know what this last number 10 answer is cos it's buggin the hell out of me. There's a few suggestions here which may or may not be pretty close.... but I really need to know....

"chicken in a basket"?

Does that mean Joy Division were the only band whose members were ALL meat-eaters ??

Saw this thread for the first time today.

A possible (wrong, I know) answer for #10 could be that Revenge is the only single-word band name.

Dear knaas.....I almost completely forgot 'bout this one.... four months doon the line and no-one has even got the right answer yet.

And now, some people are coomin' up with some reet howlers....

Look at it like this: when I say "Chicken in a Basket" I'm referrin' to the Cabaret circuit, awreet? Y'knaa - when the band members all get back together ageen to tread the seaside pavillions an' suchlike, got that? Noo, if you cannat work it oot from THAT clue then yer really ARE a bunch of sieve-brained thickos!

which question is it no-one has got the answer to?

Question 10. Evene though its exactlly the same as question1. Does no-one not know what the answer is yet? :(

Q1: Peter hook played in 3 of the bands, but never in happy mondays.

JD won't gig again?

Yeah - that's the one that's nagging at the back of my mind too - after all, Ian's dead isn't he?

All of the other bands have survivning members.

Bloody cliffhangers.,eh?

:(

Right, another stab at reasoning. if it's not remixes than it must be something else. the reason I think it might have somethinng to do with Ian Curtis is when the phrase Chicken in a basket was mentioned, someone else suggested "casket" - so that's coffin = dead.

So Joy Division HAVE to be the odd band out because their lead singer is no longer with us - whereas the other bands (assuming they were still together) still have surviving lead singers. Hell, that sounds so bloody obvious you know i'm not even sure if even that's correct, but it was hinted that this answer is a sneaky one. So is that it then?

this thread is still going on?!??!!

Well, I only happened across it a few weeks ago but i'm damned if im going to give in just yet, cos it looks like a few possible answers are in the offing here. Do you know anything about this last one perchance?

Originally posted by Chris Nash Okay then. My pc is now fixed after 3 whole sodding weeks, so I'll have one last go at Q10.Answer: Joy DivisionReason: All the others have sort of 'split' then got back together in various guises, relying on their previous releases, connections, etc. to cover their own songs 'live'. The Chicken in a basket clue being that many 'cabaret' acts do similar things once their fame has sort of waned slightly.Plus, New Order are becoming more like a cabaret act live - note Steve Morris' 'ba-dum-chit' drum rolls whenever Barney or Hooky make some funny/clever/stoopid comment between songs...If that's not the correct answer, then I give up.

Chris - i hope youre on the right lines there, cos I had a throrough trawl through this thread when i first saw it and noticed you got the most answers right. :) Can you do the honours of clinching this last one... we've been trying for ages now to get it!

If the answer has something to do with Ian Curtis then isn't that a bit too obvious?

Not so much "chicken in a basket" as a complete red herring. :(

Originally posted by Major Tarantino Q1: Peter hook played in 3 of the bands, but never in happy mondays.

It's Question 10 ya greet hoit! Honestly, some people are just not payin' attention!

Close - very close! ;)

You've got the right end of the stick there Dave. :) Heck - you're pretty damned close as a matter of fact!....

Extremely commendable stab there Chris!! I'm reet impressed with ya! In fact, if I combine your answer there with the last one Dave posted there, ye've more or less clinched it....

AWREET then.......this is what it should have been:

JOY DIVISION have to be the odd band out because the other three bands would still have at their disposal all their original/surviving members (assuming Shaun Ryder doesn't cop it from his drug habit one day that is). So technically ALL THREE of those bands could still reform with all their original members intact to do the "cabaret" circuit if they so wanted to. Okay - so New Order have "ungrouped" many times before, but we're talking "theoretical" here. So, in reality, Joy Division could NEVER reform cos of the obvious fact that Ian isn't there.

Right - that's the end of the sneaky Question 10 saga solved once and for all!

AT LAST!! .... THANK FOOK FER THAT!!

Allow me to thank everyone - even the newcomers - for persevering with this bastard of a teaser (blimey - four months old it is noo!), you've all been greet sports! But special mention has to go to YOU Chris for being the smartest alec of them all! I salute yer humungously ! :\party: :\party:

And many apologies folks for not gettin' back on track earlier - I've just been kept extremely preoccupied with family duties.... our bairn Thomas is now so demandin' I've all but given up all my wakin' hours to watch over the dear little rascal.... but hey - I'm not complainin' !! ;)

so everything is answered?

Originally posted by Chris Nash Thank F**K for that. Now I can finally get some :sleep2:Thanks for the great thread Mickle me boy!

Aye - Cheers to yers too me aad marra! Thanks fer bein' such a sport. And to everyone else who attempted the questions as well. Cannat believe this thing went on quite as long as it did!

Wow - so thats me as a runner up for the last question then? That's pretty cool! :) :) :)

Well, I suppose my earlier box set answer is pretty wide of the mark then.... So, after all this malarky, is that the final answer? How about a prize for the winner and maybe a few crates for me too...?
