Haven't listened to 'em yet today, but was walking along the Embankment around 11pm last night and the Mary Rose (a docked 'party' boat there) was banging out that Hardfloor Blue Monday thing. Which was quite surreal. . .
I started the year with "Janie Jones" by the Clash, but I haven't listened to any NO yet. Odds are it'll be Temptin' Temptation from the '84 BBC gig 
Ceremony 7"...
Currently listening to the Peter Black mix of 586.. my mp3 is all screwed up, if anyone has something better... :D
Originally posted by M. Domingo Heh, I actually was in the mood to listen to "The Village" for some reason. Although, I just heard that recording of "Love Juice" in the archives, and that song is just really good. I wonder if anyone's ever found out who originally did that song...?
It wasn't a song. It was a live jam (a la most of the things that were occasionally given pseudo Sister Ray/Do The Ostrich lyrics). Nobody is really gonna write lyrics like "love juice smells like stale fish" now, are they ?
I was a wee bit pissed, luckily enough John brought the "Pop" cd from Retro up my Uncle Pats house fer the party, Fine Time came on first....but I quickly skipped to Temptation, there were quite a few of us singing along, brilliant craic, then after the pop cd was finished, we had the usual pleasure of my dad, Pat and the other brother Ted singing Dylan fer the rest of the party.....this also involved 2 accoustic guitars, played incorrectly

Has an American discovered 'irony'? 
Really good?

and the cd player chose???
It was "Fine Time", though my very first new 2003 song was "Baggy Trousers" by Madness. Nothing like Madness to start a night of drinking 
Of course, the day after is Joy Division's day
Tucked up in bed, full of flu, listening to Brotherhood on repeat and at 12 it was "Paradise". Anybody know the point of the Robert Racic mix though ? I do love "Paradise" however, it is in my Top Ten !
I didn't think about it before it happened... so finally my first NO song of 2003 has been Blue Monday, heard on the radio.
1963 (1994) because of its lyrics:
"It was January,1963 When Johnny came home with a gift for me..."
It just can't go any better that it actually gets.Perfect!

Well...I stand corrected. And I can't always understand what Barney sings on some of those live recordings, you know?
Jam or not, irony or not, the song has a good sound. I like Hooky's bassline, and Bernard's choice of guitar chords match the bassline. I can't help it, I'm a musician...what can I say? "The music sounds good."
Also, if you happen to notice in NOOL's Audio Archives, apparently the Webmaster(s) don't know that this is a live jam either...but are you gonna say anything to them? :)
