Originally posted by Wolfmann I could agree with Temptation "being New Order" - it is their flagship song. It is just not my favorite. I would rate it way higher than TPK. That was the one that really shocked me. Also stop telling me that seeing them live is going to make TPK suddenly jump to my top 5 - It's not going to happen. I could see them 100 times and TPK would remain a good, but not phenominal, song. Tempation though, that song could move up the list.
I didn't say you had to see New Order live to appreciate the Perfect Kiss, but if you did ever bother to see New Order live, then you could at least guage people's general reaction to what IS a popular New Order song, and what ISN'T. What other form of barometer could we possibly employ for measuring a song's popularity?
I'm just amazed that you're surprised Perfect Kiss was listed. If this poll had been done ten years ago, or perhaps fifteen years ago, I'm fairly confidant it would've ended up going to the wire between these two.
