New Order spotting thread

Empress Touch wrote: New Order on BBC TWO (UK TV channel) on a Monday night - yet again.

This time, University Challenge Second Round, Liverpool vs Southampton

Music round, three tracks from a now-defunct record label.

The Southampton captain eventually guessed Factory records after hearing the first verse of True Faith. Here's the link for British viewers:

They didn't get the subsequent ones right for Def Jam or 4AD. For shame! I knew both of those (and I guessed SyCo correctly too). Not often I can say that about University Challenge questions. It's on 14 mins for anyone else inclined to watch.

According to her Twitter feed, Gillian spotted Restless on Coronation Street on Friday night.

Restless on corrie 💕💕

Nice of her to join in...

Plastic was used as background music to a segment on The One Show last night. The shame...

A joke that only really works today.

People On The High Line as pre-show music for Editors in Ljubljana on Tuesday (Dec 01). Made me dance like an idiot in the crowd.

Of all the JD/NO related shirts I've owned over the years, I've always tried to avoid this one due to how popular it's become. Not that I dislike the fact that more people are sporting JD's legacy out in public, but the fact that it's gotten to where other bands and marketing companies have been created parodies of it bothers me a bit. Plus the image on the original LP wasn't nearly as huge. The smaller size in relation to the rest of the LP cover made for very stark and minimal piece of art. 99% of the shirts I see people wearing have it totally super-sized.

Someone at "Team New Order" is now better at new order spotting than us forumites.

Driving down the road listening to cd mix of WFTSC, and LS, and dracula' s castle finishing as a truck with license plate 'crafty' passes me as Krafty begins. And later at the gym a guy took his shirt off a few minutes after I had just heard Avalanche. On his back was the word ' faith'.

Hooky and Bernard spotting each other...

Ouch!

A friend informed me (honest guv)Bernard was on Radio 2 this morning (Ken Bruce show) as this week's guest for Tracks Of My Years.He'll be talking and choosing two of his favourite tracks each day this week.This morning he chose The Clash's Rock The Casbah and The Beatles' Eleanor Rigby. Go to 2 hours 15 minutes in here

Oh and Happy Birthday for today , 4th Jan, Bernard!

Bernard on Newsnight talking about Bowie!!

Mark Reeders' B Movie: Lust & Sound In Berlin has had a couple of brief mentions on the forum previously. However it seems the film has only just had it's UK premiere. A bit weird considering you can already buy it on Amazon. And there's an expensive book too. I may have to spring £13 for the DVD.

Instrumental piece from "Restless" being played under continuity links on BBC1 recently. I guess the New Order fan in the BBC (whoever he or she is) is still very much an influence on the selection of these little musical interludes.

In kind of a reverse spotting - I was playing Music Complete at my cafe and a new employee asked me if this was New Order. He knew it was Bernard but didn't recognize the song. I told him about the album, etc. Turns out he is from Manchester and has been in the States for 6 years. Now we chat about music any time he comes in to work.

Music Complete - M.C. - Mc - McDonalds. Now it all makes sense:

Oh, another one:

[TWITTER]704846383153586177[/TWITTER] Shouldn't they have re-worked Orwell's Animal Farm for this one?

A bit clever and a bit cringey. [TWITTER]706775174973104128[/TWITTER]

Blue Monday was also just mentioned in tonight's Coronation Street.

Age of Consent being referenced in this track shurely? The ring-in singing along is all a bit Crystal / Killers too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qegzIy8lJ84

The band will perform in the Late Show with the mighty Stephen Colbert, next monday

This past Saturday I was in WALMART in New Jersey a very similar store like TESCO in UK and they were playing LWTUA in the background, so shocked I heard it in a place like that and it made me happy.
