Purple seems more likely given the artwork, and given that Tutti Fruitti was yellow

Thanks

Well Mute Bank and the New Order store clearly state purple vinyl. Surely if anyone knows, it's them. I would hazard a guess that Mute have re-used their blurb for Tutti Frutti and forgotten to change the bit about the colour when they sent info out to record stores. So then places such as Norman Records quote the blurb and confuse the punters.

Incidentally I linked to Norman Records as we may have a new "cheapest option" for buying the single: 12" £7.99 +CD £5.49 + shipping £3 = £16.48

Amazon is currently one of the most expensive options at £24.87. Tsk.

I just looked on Amazon after reading your post and wow! How can they justify £16.83 for the vinyl? That's more than twice the normal price. Crazy. Doubt they will have many orders.

Why always with the extended mixes they are teasing us? I want to hear the real remixes first!

Not too bad but not really close to the existing mixes.

I still think that the extended album (with a couple of exceptions, Tutti Frutti, Academic) is the definitive work on MC.

By and large, the remixes haven't been as good as the 'originals' or the extended originals, though I did like Restless RAC & Weatherall and Tutti Frutti Hot Chip remixes.

Not stopped me forking out for the single again...

I quite like the Erol Alkan mix.It's kind of sparse, built around that repeating keyboard riff - will certainly play it a fair bit .

I'm not normally a fan of edits but that was a pretty tight 4 and a half minutes & an uncommonly good showcase for the band.

Cheers.

It's Mark Reeder's Duality Remix (4:57). So not exactly "exclusive".

I thought it was a great performance as well. Very energetic. I stayed up later than usual to watch it live on my big screen with surround sound, haha. I remember when Iggy Pop played on the Late Show in January, they uploaded a second song onto YouTube which wasn't aired on TV a few days later. I'd keep checking online since a second song might pop up within a day or two.

Yep it was an outstanding performance on Colbert.Woke up in early hours and looked up CBS stream online and watched it live and was blown away at how good they sounded and Bernard's vocals.Best TV spot they've done in ages.Tried to capture it but audio failed so great that it's online now.Yeah will be interesting to see if they did another song while they were there.Haven't tried the Shazam thing.

Who'd have thunk it, they've handed in a career-best TV spot. Well played all but Stephen's drumming particularly sublime

Same here. It was actually rather disappointing to hear this remix because I'm a fan of Liars' music. They usually do some pretty weird and noisy stuff, but not the case here. It's like they turned it into one of those "trap music" type songs you hear in a lot trendy nightclubs these days. I'm sure the bros will dig it, but bleh. Pass.
