Of course, Dreams Never End should be the popular choice because it's poppy and dancey, but we might have a surprise here!
Personally, I voted for Truth.
I suggest to put all the winners together in one poll... IN A FEW DAYS..
Give it a rest for now, this is filling the first page!!

I hope so. I voted for Doubts Even Here. Dreams Never End is a good song but somehow I just can´t stop thinking of Cure´s Inbetween Days, even if it´s 5 years earlier. I know it´s silly and I know I shouldn´t think that way but what can I do about it? 
I voted for Chosen Time too, David. Maybe i'll play it tomorrow on Groovetech. Tune in if you get a chance.
Yeah, I voted for the unoriginal choice, dreams never end, but it's so great! Just exhilarating, the guitar and bass melodies are so gorgeous, even Hooky sounds ok singing. I wish they did a few more like that.
But the best thing about Movement, to me, is Steve's fabulous drumming. What a gifted guy.

I agree, and I think Hooky should jump on vocals for a couple of tracks on the next album, would be quite interesting 
The trouble is, I can never remember which track is called what on Movement. I vote for the other good one that isn't dreams never end. Whichever one that is.
Dreams Never End. I wish they'd let Hooky sing some more, at least give him one track on the next album!
Everything's great. But I'd have to say The him. It scared the crap out of me the first time I heard it. I just love it, it's creepy. But I love the drums on Senses too. It's great to see Stephen go at it on that one live video, what's it called? All that movement stuff, ceremony, and the beginning of temptation...
Definately "The Him", because its dark, and reminds me of Joy Division, also my favorite New Order song anyway, off my favorite New order album.
Hard to choose, seeing how Dreams Never End, Chosen Time, and The Him are equally awesome...
I'm going for Chosen Time. The bass in that song is insane. Every band has that one track that will make you play "air guitar", this one makes me play "air bass".
Does anyone actually like anything from this miserable transitional record?. It's a horrible disorganised mishmash positively painful to listen to.
The answer is YES, although I've always only really liked three tracks from this album: Dreams Never End, Truth and Doubts Even Here.
I think they all could benefit from re-recordings, though.
I voted for 'Doubts Even Here' - reason being that I love the balance between the 'singing' and Gillian's poetry recital. It's been copied many times since.
I love 'Movement' as a whole, even though most of you have slated it, as have New Order themselves - I truly believe it will, in the future, be regarded as a somewhat 'glossed over' classic that should be revisited as an example of interesting producion and songs that actually fit together on an album, if you see what I mean.
Also, I love 'Dreams Never End' and have always thought that on 'Truth' where the guitars actually 'kick in' full volume, it conveys an almost tactile sense of supressed violence - just love it. Disagree if you wish...

Sounds like you need to hear the Number One Blue Murder version of "Truth" as recorded at the Manchester Roadhouse on 14th July 2002. The violence lost its suppression !
I'd say "Dreams Never End" as well, I like the vocals, and I like the beat. It's the only song on the album that sounds a thing like New Order, and not a bad imitation of Joy Division.
I've got to choose CHOSEN TIME. Its really catchy & Steve's Drumming sounds brill!
This track sounds quality on the UKRANIAN NATIONAL HOME Video (Mislabelled as ICB).

Movement is a magnificent album and better than Republic and Get Ready IMHO.
Chosen Time is a very, very underrated song.
I'm surprised "Denial" has gotten so little support. A very moving song I think- "It's another story, some of it is blurred/ I tried to understand him, I tried so hard." Also some urgent rhythm from Morris. The other songs always blended together somehow but this one stuck in my mind.

Me too, what's all that about poetry? I was absolutely mesmerised by the track from day one.
Chosen Time for me

Sure does. I keep playing that one over and over again.

Get it played on DVD through a loud surround sound system!!!! It'll blow your head off!!
If only they would play it live, just the once!!! Hey, why not start a MOVEMENT LIVE petition!!!!!!! (Doubt it would work).
