Brutal or Such a good thing? — Forum Archive

Seeing as most of my Cd's have been packed away, due to my moving of residence, I only have a few CD's at hand!

Currently been playing one of Muffy's compilations over and over (Cheers Muffster ) Starts off with Brutal and then Such A Good Thing, I remember reading on another thread that someone named SAGT as the worse record the band has ever done :nonono: We ALL know the worst track is WIFM :evil4: Anyways, anyways, I am just writing to stick up fer SAGT - it's a fookin cracker of a track.....honestly peepies, ok, so the lyrics are not shit-hot, but Barney's lyrics have never bothered or worried me, and I find myself singing this track and Brutal out loud at work :lol: (and I never sing at work!) Also on the CD, is The Happy One, and it really does what it says on the tin;) and an exquisite version of Temptation done for The Commonwealth Games in 98.....would loved to have heard the single version of this that the band supposedly recorded :nod:

Such a good thing?.......certamundo:D

Hiya SHUGZV just had an offer from a great guy from AMERICA offering me lots of newer sounds of NEW ORDER that i have not heard.When it arrives i will do youa copy.Sounds ace what is going to be recorded.The one of MUFFY'S is a great complilation and i too have played it a lot.Funny cos i had half the tracks on it but never listened to them but put together like this an the fact that he took time and effort to do this means so much to me.Inspired me to share my collection and had some great offers in return,Still going through your collection of tapes and i must say they are better than i thought.Must get them recorded.HOOKY'S WALLET at PLANET ROCKET on MONDAY so another bond from the NOOL'S will be forged.Great site this and some fantastic people and very funny guys on board.Too many to mention but you know the ones.SUCH A GOOD THING is a great track.:D Cheers ROCKET MICK

I'm going to join the "such a good thing" fan club. I love it. Hooky rocks in the song and the chourus is just fantastic. Yes some of the lyrics are cheesy, but the song really gets me going, so I'm going to stick up for it.

Well, that Temptation 98 is on the 316 DVD if you wish to listen to it.. the images have nothing to do with it, but it's the studio version re-recorded for the Commonwealth Games.. the only difference is the vocals, Barney did sing them live, on those, it's studio....
