well, not particularly...but he manages to stay on key! (mostly) :D

seriously, though. i don't think it's all that bad, really....

Now this is more like it. I enjoy his backing vox, wish they'd give him a chance to do some on record, and like I said in another thread, he did it all the time in JD anyway.

The only other New Order song he did the lead vocals on is Doubts Even Here, from the same album.

Incidentally, this is also the only other song (minus maybe Avalanche, if you will) on which Gillian has ever did vocals as well, NewOrderwise.

There is a Joy Division song in which Hooky do some vocals as well, you can hear his duet with Ian Curtis in "Interzone".

hey, why not let him sing a few right???

Watching Hooky sing Dreams Never End live on videos such as Taras and Pumped Full of Drugs always sends shivers down my spine. He sings it with such power and energy. Great song live.

Hooky singing?

Never! More like "grunting".

:laugh:
