Hi,
Just received an email notification from HMV Japan regarding this - wonder if the faults of the original release (Blue Monday false start etc) will have been rectified?
The track listing is in Japanese: Singles (2015 Remastered Version) [eek3]

Maybe Run 2 will actually make an appearance.
They've done away with the bonus tracks. My original Japanese copy has Everything's Gone Green - Cicada Mix and Bizarre Love Triangle - Richard X Remix (Edit) at the end of the second disc.

...and fix the left and right channels (which were the wrong way round for many of the tracks).
And feature the actual 7 inch mix of Confusion (rather than the edited Rough Mix that was on there).
And replace Turn (which was never actually a single) with Guilt Is A Useless Emotion (which was a US single).
And feature the Minimix of Spooky (which was the official single mix) rather than the album edit (which wasn't).
And include the Arthur Baker Radio Mix of 1963 (which was the single version) rather than the edit of 1963-94 (which wasn't). And put it on there after Spooky when it was actually released as a single.
And include the actual 7 inch single remix of Bizarre Love Triangle rather than the Brotherhood album version.
And how about the original, 4:24 7 inch version of The Perfect Kiss (different to the unique, but erroneous single edit on Total) rather than the Low-life album version.
And feature the original 7 inch mix of True Faith instead of the 12 inch (to be consistent with the other 7 inch single versions on this compilation).
And feature the extremely rare, original 7 inch version of Blue Monday instead of the widely available 12 inch mix, whilst dropping the 1988 version to avoid repetition. Or ditch the 1983 Blue Monday altogether (which didn't have an official 7 inch release) in favour of the 1988 7 inch version.
...Just like I've done in my ITunes playlist.
And why include I'll Stay With You (not a single)?
And why release it now? Why not remaster and re-release it in a year to include the next batch of up upcoming singles..?
How odd.
Had forgotten just how many errors there were with this release!
^ Impressive stuff. I think. I'm pretty sure I had a problem ripping the CD to my laptop without every track sounding massively distorted. I think that's a Warners thing, but I could be wrong.
Regarding waiting for the next batch of singles - it's new label now. I don't imagine Warners have any entitlement to stuff released on Mute. It's a cash in job to try to get people to purchase it whilst purchasing Music Complete I suspect.
Nice. I'll be placing a pre-order.
As Mr Discography has already covered hopefully this new pressing will correct most of the omissions from the original decade-old compilation but I suspect aside from the addition of ISWY it will probably be much the same. Hope to be proven wrong though. More importantly I hope the new mastering does the music justice. The original 2005 release was loud, brick-walled and generally just headache-inducing to listen to after a while. I know a lot of fans don't give a flying fudge about that type of thing but if you're trying to enjoy the music on a decent rig the original compilation was not ideal. They got the sound much better on the fixed Collector's Edition bonus discs and Total/Lost Sirens so hopefully Giovanni Scatola or Frank Arkwright will be involved.
Turn was definitely going to be a single but was cancelled at the last minute. Hooky spoke about it in an NME interview at the time mentioning that WFTSC (Tribute Mix) would be the b-side but obviously nothing materialised beyond the ultra-rare Tribute Mix 10". The version of Turn we got on Singles was clearly a new radio edit so perhaps the compilation was finalised before it was pulled. I'll Stay With You was released on a dutch promotional CDR around the time of Lost Sirens so if it had been ten years earlier it most likely would have been a single. It certainly had 'single' or 'key track' written all over it upon first listening; New Order through and through.
Could this be the beginning of a steady roll out of quality remasters of other neglected New Order releases? We've just had Joy Division's Substance reissued, why not New Order's?
A decent Republic reissue also wouldn't go amiss.

Good points, all of them (if it was up to me, I'd have included Murder instead of BM88). Shouldn't Perfect Kiss be the Ivan Ivan edit (3:50-ish) that's on the second UK 7" (but who knows if there's a usable master tape for that..)?
It's probably too late to change anything now, as this is only 2 months away, but it looks like they've moved 1963 in the way you suggest above, which hopefully means there are other differences too! Fingers crossed..

As Jimmy Carr said on guinea pigs: 'The clue there is in the name.'
It does beg the question why they don't ask the people who know when putting these things together (ie the fans). New Order's catalogue is full of errors.

Yeah, there were strong rumours circa 2005 that 'Turd' would be a single:
- the '7" edit at the end of 'Singles'
- artwork of a Terne (tee hee, or maybe terne hee)
- no less than three vids made
- the WFTSC megamix as a B-side... However a punter asked DJ Hooky about it and he said, 'I have no idea.' I got the impression it gave way to the 12 x 12" shambles, which in typical NO style raised more questions than it answered. ('Retro', anyone?)

I remember that whole fiasco. First it was going to come out, then it wasn't, then it was...I believe it was called the "Prairie Dog Remix".

If the tracklisting I've posted above is correct, most of your prayers appear to have been answered... Of course, without listening to it... :p
Oh, btw, was the Stephen Street edit of "Turn" ever released? I can't remember?
😎
Yes, it seems they've actually done their homework this time. Still, there is the risk of things being mislabelled, but hopefully not.
Let me guess we'll get the Total 7" edit of Perfect Kiss, but I'd love to be proven wrong.
They must hate the Fluke mix of 'Spooky' as it's still not on there.. what's weird is that the Republic LP reissue track listing also has this 'radio album edit' - surely some mistake?

We'll have to listen to it first - it wouldn't be the first time stuff has been mislabelled! ![[:p]](/emoticons/tongue.gif){kind=small}
Hopefully the "radio album edit" is a mistake but, again, we'll have to wait and see...
😎
I must have fallen asleep and are dreaming. Singles on quadruple vinyl? All nicely corrected? Best get saving as the autumn looks expensive!
Btw: fricking I'll stay with you????

Personally I think 'Turd' would've been a good single and a great closer to that period, just a tad hard to remix - far better'n 'Jetstream', which I actually don't mind, especially in its remixed forms.
Come to think of it I am surprised that "Hellbent" isn't on there.
Given that it was on Total (a singles collection) and was issued on at least two promotional CDrs at the time.
No big deal though.

It'll be great if this re-release corrects all the mistakes of the previous version. Even if it does, it'll only give us three seven inch versions that haven't yet been avaiable on CD somewhere (Confusion, Perfect Kiss, Run 2). Had never noticed before that the UK seven inch mix of Perfect Kiss (FAC 123) was the shorter of the two seven inch mixes - be good to have that version on there instead of the 4:23 FBN edit.
What'd make it more attractive to collectors, however, would be a third disc with all B-sides in their seven inch versions, including the shorter versions of the dub mixes that were on the early seven inches. That'd really be worth buying!

Following on from my above post, if this re-release were to feature fan-enticing bonus disc(s) including the shorter seven inch versions of B-sides (unreleased to-date on CD), these 17 tracks would all fit on one CD:
In A Lonely Place (7 Inch) (4:39) Procession (4:30) Mesh (3:04) Cries And Whispers (3:27) Hurt (7 Inch) (4:47) Lonesome Tonight (7 Inch) (3:53) Murder (3:56) 1963 (5:32) Don't Do It (4:34) Best & Marsh (Seven Inch) (3:34) MTO (3:44) Vicious Circle (The New Order Mix) (4:07) Let's Go (3:56) Behind Closed Doors (5:26) Sabotage (4:51) Player In The League (5:36) Such A Good Thing (4:08)
[1 hour 13 min 35 secs total time]
Or for a tastier 'deluxe' version, these 28 tracks would fit onto two bonus CDs (including the seven-inch edits of B-side dub/alternate band versions):
In A Lonely Place (7 Inch) (4:39) Procession (4:30) Mesh (3:04) Cries And Whispers (3:27) Hurt (7 Inch) (4:47) Lonesome Tonight (7 Inch) (3:53) Murder (3:56) The Kiss Of Death (7 Inch) (3:01) Dub-Vulture (7 Inch) (3:37) Thieves Like Us (Instrumental Edit) (3:58) Shame Of The Nation (7 Inch) (3:35) Bizarre Dub Triangle (7 Inch) (3:28) 1963 (5:32) Evil Dust (3:45) Touched By The Hand Of Dub (7 Inch) (4:12) Confusion Dub 1987 (5:23) Beach Buggy (7 Inch) (4:20) Don't Do It (4:34) Best & Marsh (Seven Inch) (3:34) MTO (3:44) World In Motion... (The B-Side) (4:49) Regret (The New Order Mix) (5:12) Vicious Circle (The New Order Mix) (4:07) Let's Go (3:56) Behind Closed Doors (5:26) Sabotage (4:51) Player In The League (5:36) Such A Good Thing (4:08)

The thing is the Ivan Ivan edit is a bit of a hatchet job and doesn't present TPK in its best light. It might be rare but ultimately a compromise between what might appeal to collectors and what is best commercially has to be made.
It'll get a release one day, along with other similar rarities.
I've found the FBN edit or the variation they put on Total to be a pretty good representation of TPK as far as edits go.
The live version they played on the '93 tour had an intro not too dissimilar to the Ivan Ivan Edit didn't it?
Never cared for the album version that much.

I agree with this (and the last post above). I'm torn between wanting the compilation to finally contain all the true 7" versions, but prefer the FBN 7" (and FBN 7" of The Kiss Of Death) to the rather awkward UK edit. But it'd also be nice to have a digital remaster of the shorter edit, for a change.
So I have no objection to either edit being on there. It'll be interesting to see what they choose!
Where's Video 586?!
Where's Murder?!
lulz
But really? Until I get an unnecessary 12" of the Full Video Version of "The Perfect Kiss" (expertly remastered by 50£ Note), I don't care. (reissue, repackage..)
Give us Recycle in official form.

I don't understand Murder it's an odd one. It's not a B side but neither was it a UK single.
In theory Video 586 isn't a single. If you were bored enough and read the UK chart rules (don't ask) then you would see this.

The editing is a disgrace. 'WH...!' Makes Razormaid look like Horn and Lipson. I'm amazed it got through at all, let alone onto an official release.

I can see it now... The majors get it right after fucking up for years... By a curious coincidence I was watching Shug's Electronic DVDs yesterday - remember those? Fan releases urinate over official ones. Compare and contrast Recycle / International.
Anyone know if this remaster is getting a UK release? Can't find it listed at any UK online stores yet, and don't want to spend more on US shipping.
Does anybody ever seen some picture of the Singles' 4 x 180g vinyls box set? Except on Music Direct I didn't see anything else about the box in anywhere as Amazon or even Rhino website, the band's on line store etc.

I've come to the conclusion that the majors fuck these things up on purpose to make life more fun / frustrating for the hard-core fans. I'm looking forward to: 'Singles, 2013, released on 30 February 2062: One of the songs will be edited by 6.295 seconds to give forum users something to talk about. The Perfect Kiss will be the album edit which is shit to irritate people. Blue Monday will have the same glitches as those wondrous remasters so the people who shelled out for them will know. True Faith will be replaced by Ruined In A Day - Bogle Mix for no reason at all. Turn will be listed but replaced by Ruined In A Day - Bogle Mix for no reason at all too.'

Looks like the Singles re-release has been pushed back to November. Wouldn't be surprised if this was the case with all the reissues - seems daft to have them released at the same time as a new album.
Note revised tracklisting (and they're all 2015 remastered versions, not sure why it only says it on True Faith):
CD1:
01 Ceremony 02 Procession 03 Everything’s Gone Green (7” Version) 04 Temptation (Original 7″ Version) 05 Blue Monday 06 Confusion (UK 7” Promo Edit) 07 Thieves Like Us (7” Promo Edit) 08 The Perfect Kiss (7” Edit) 09 Sub-Culture (7” Edit) 10 Shellshock (7” Edit) 11 State Of The Nation (7” Edit) 12 Bizarre Love Triangle (7” Remix Edit) 13 True Faith (7” Edit) [2015 Remastered Version] 14 Touched By The Hand Of God (7” Edit) 15 Blue Monday ’88 (7” Version)
CD2:
01 Fine Time (7” Version) 02 Round And Round (7” Version) 03 Run 2 (7” Remix Edit) 04 World In Motion 05 Regret 06 Ruined In A Day (Radio Edit) 07 World (The Price Of Love) [Radio Edit] 08 Spooky (Minimix) 09 Nineteen63 (Arthur Baker Radio Remix) 10 Crystal (Radio Edit) 11 60 Miles An Hour (Radio Edit) 12 Here To Stay (Radio Edit) 13 Krafty (Single Edit) 14 Jetstream (Radio Edit) 15 Waiting For The Sirens’ Call (Rich Costey Radio Version) 16 Turn (Stephen Street Edit) 17 I’ll Stay With You (Lost Sirens LP Version)
This is due out in the US on Friday (6 Nov). Anyone know if it's coming out in the UK again (on CD ideally, or at least digitally)?
It's been put back until early next year now.
There were some minor things left to sort out and it missed the deadline.

Fair dos. Thanks for letting us know.
To be honest I'd rather they took a bit longer and got it perfect than rush release something with mistakes.
The box-set has the potential to be a really nice item.
EDIT: Not to mention it lets our bank accounts recover! It's a pricey time to be a New Order fan, both for new releases and gigs.
Since it's being delayed a couple months, it seems like a good opportunity to add the single edits of "Restless" and "Tutti Frutti" to the end of the album. I'd rather have those on there instead of "Turn" and "I'll Stay With You" since neither were actually singles.
Out of curiosity, I compiled a playlist of the above track listing for both discs listed above and got the following times:
Disc 1 - 1 hour, 5 minutes and 55 seconds There's roughly fourteen minutes of blank space here. "Murder" could be added, plus it would be good to see "Dreams Never End" and "Age of Consent" added so all the LPs are represented with at least one song.
Disc 2 - 1 hour, 7 minutes and 10 seconds This has an extra twelve minutes of space, so the single edits of "Restless" & "Tutti Frutti" could be added.

Warners is releasing Singles and will not include new Mute material.

One could argue for Murder but Dreams Never End and Age of Consent are not "Singles".
Make your own CD. The technology is available.

"Turn" or "I'll Stay With You" weren't singles either, yet are currently part of the upcoming track listing. There's also a handful of promo edits that weren't official singles either. "Dreams Never End" & "Age of Consent" appeared on a handful of other releases besides the albums, so their appearance wouldn't be any more out of place than the other promo edits and non-single tracks.

Warners is releasing the CD, not you. The track listing is not perfect, but I understand their choice of songs that were at least promotional singles over album tracks such as Dreams Never End and Age of Consent that also happen to have turned up on previous Best Of's.
To me, one of the most peculiar omissions is Guilt is a Useless Emotion. It's their only single release to have won a Grammy Award.

I remember Barney at Wembley Arena in 2006: "Now we're going to make you dance!". Cue GIAUE....and much indifference from most of the crowd. Awards? Pah!

Thanks for that enlightening piece of information, but if you read this entire thread it appears that someone here is actually involved with this compilation somehow (obviously not you either .) A few other people have already made suggestions on what could be included besides me, so I figured since there's now a two month delay with this compilation, I figured it is worth throwing in my two cents in case there's a slight chance that the person involved is reading this and considers anyone's suggestions.
You can ask to change the tracks all you want. But you might have to end up changing the title from "Singles".
Once you add all the radio/remix/dub/edits, you and the likes of -1 can jack off all over it.

So does this mean pics of your mom will be included in the booklet as well? Spanktacular! I'll make sure to squeeze a little extra out just for you.

I don't really care what's on the reissue so long as it corrects the obvious problems with the first pressing the most glaring of which was the poor sound. They were a fairly gratingly loud pair of CDs and I can't say I've listened to them much in the ten years since their first release simply due to that fact. If the true 7" versions of Confusion, TPK, True Faith and Run 2 are included this time around then they'll obviously be a welcome bonus and it sounds like they may well be. That's pretty much all I ask; a decent mastering and the correct versions. I wouldn't want to muddy the waters by asking them to classify album tracks as singles at this point but that's just me.
Turn was fairly obviously going to be a single back in 2006. The mix on Singles was clearly intended to be a radio edit and I remember Peter Hook citing it as a single in an NME interview (WFTSC Tribute Mix was going to be the b-side) but it must have been axed for a number of reasons. Perhaps they decided that the 12" x 12 campaign would truly be a worthy replacement (bizarre) or with the band in mid-disintegration the management and/or label decided it was simply not worth the effort. I do remember thinking at the time that the triple 7" format for the WFTSC single was crap and the wrong choice in the midst of paid-for digital files taking off. Maybe we'll never know. Regarding the Lost Sirens period, promo CDrs were manufactured for both Hellbent and I'll Stay With You. In an ideal world both of those tracks would have been singles. Hellbent had its own unique radio edit as featured on Total versus the "original mix" on the finalised mini-album. I suppose if we're going to continue the argument it really should have been on Singles too but hey, I've got Total so it's no skin off my nose that it's not.
Guilt Is A Useless Emotion is a bit of an odd one: a US only digital single which never had any physical format beyond CDs promos; the track itself was never put into a proper edit, they simply used the album version.
Then of course, there was Someone Like You with it's double-promo vinyl pack.... it never had a single mix either. It was just a bunch of remixes to promote Get Ready.
