Joy Division : best : love will tear us apart worst : none

New Order : best : run wild worst : every little counts

JOY DIVISION Best: Atmosphere, Twenty Four hours Worst: Transmission

NEW ORDER Best: Ceremony, 1963, Thieves like us & Dream Attack
Worst: World (The price of love), World in motion, Vicious Streak, Every little counts & 60 MPH

JD: best: LWTUA. beautiful and sad.

worst: leaders of men. too much primary-school rhyming, and is 'internees' a word?

NO: best: every little counts. it's silly, but incredibly charming

worst: all the way. just for one part in particular: love the song, but 'parasites and literasites'...come on!

"Open hearts,empty spaces Dusty roads to distant places But all the time when I´m alone I think of you..."

Really beautiful !

Best : Every Second Counts, Your Silent Face. Worst : Elegia (far too quiet in the mix) and Incubation.

Best Joy Division lyrics: LWTUA and Decades

Worst: Failures and Autosuggestion

Best New Order: True Faith and As It Is When It Was

Worst: Thieves

A good lyric it's not the more brilliant for me. I like TLU because it works, and without the lyrics it wouldn't work.

But i agree with you, OUTSIDE of TLU "love is the air that supports the eagle" disqualifies any person.

Joy Division Best: LWTUA, Transmission, SLC

Worst: Failures, Candidate, Ice Age

New Order Best: Temptation, Blue Monday, Perfect Kiss, Run Wild, True Faith

Worst: World in Motion ("Eng-er-land!")

Joy Division: Best: Atmopshere, Dead Souls Worst: Have to get back on that...

New Order: Best: This Time of Night, 586, YSF Worst: Broken Promise, Let's Go(Nothing for Me)

JD best: LWTUA worst: can't pick anything

NO best: Blue Monday worst: umm...World in Motion?

I didn't realise there was an "in" in that lyric. I prefer my version.

Atmosphere/ICB

This Time of Night/Chemical

JD Best Atmosphere, LWTA Worst N/A

NO Best As it is When it was/ Run Wild Worst Mesh

The streets are so empty this time of night I'd rather walk on my own than fight. In a World where I've forgotten you, I find myself forgotten too.

Hey Razed,

Ian Curtis wrote In a Lonely Place lyrics so it´s a Joy Division´s lyrics not New Order. Ok ?
