I think that LWTUA is JD best song, however that is only by the lankiest of whiskers so I have voted instead for a personal favourite: Shadowplay, since LWTUA will get many votes anyway.
"Dead Souls" is my fave, but it's really hard to choose only one track. i also adore "Insight" and "Wilderness".

So am i! NOVELTY .....absolute ALL time classic. Still at least they managed quite a few other GREAT tunes or i would not be HERE today.:D So it has to be LWTUA...just got divorced the first time and was having a GREAT time again.:D
lwtua is too easy an answer. I have gotten to dance to Transmission in three different cities. That song will always bring back good memories. BUt I would have to say Shes Lost Control gets my vote, especially the Substance version. 
Really tough one!
In the end I plumped fer New Dawn Fades, although I nearly went fer The Eternal.
No doubt I'll probably want to change my mind the morra

You're not, Nic. Atmosphere it is.

Insight would have also been my vote. Great song
- Love Will Tear Us Apart
- The Eternal
- Atmosphere
- Transmission
- Twenty-Four Hours
- Insight
- She's Lost Control
- Heart and Soul
- In A Lonely Place (and don't nitpick about who wrote it vs. performed it)
I picked LWTUA in the poll because it's their "best" song. It's a masterpiece.
I'd have to say my favourite song of theirs would actually be Atmosphere. No other band could have come up with it.
Picked Decades; the last song on the last proper JD album. Love everything about it, and as the song fades, I cannot help but think of what might have been, but I'm very grateful that their two classic studio albums will always remain.
Wel..ceremony has 2 b there best, even if it is a new order song. id say love will tear us apart, i spose, since it dosnt lose its brilliance no matter how many times you hear it. after that new dawn fades, especially the live version on still.
I love Atmosphere, but the bass track on She's Lost Control is heavenly. My vote goes to Atmosphere, though.
can't do this.
maybe a top 5 in no order: disorder, ceremony, digital, transmission, SLC. but also decades, colony, atrocity exhibition (LIVE), these days, day of the lords (LIVE). All fantastic. Can't pick one.
A
It's really too hard for me to say, but I am surprised that "I Remember Nothing" wasn't on the list. That is an excellent song.
I thought about LWTUA since it's the 1st JD single that I bought, but went with New Dawn Fades because I love to play it REAL loud (like th rest...).
:D:D:D:D:D anita, eagerly waiting to see Heart & Soul in the mail
The Eternal.
