Especially live ;)
And that BBC 2001 version!
Originally posted by Al Jarvis Right, now, we vote for the one we like, or the one we don't?!
The one you like.
It was a tough choice between the two songs. I can listen to both songs over and over again in a row and not get sick of them. Both songs are very beautiful. The dreamy synths of YsF is what makes me like this song over LMA. I also like the velocity girl cover of the song. I think that the only NO cover that I really liked. I wish I had an mp3 of it.
I'm still not happy about AOC, but, as it's gone and there's no point arguing, I have gone fer KW1, there's nothing wrong with Throw Me A Bone, but YSF is a majestic piece of music with fantastic lyrics!
It was a pleasure to see this song reborn and reintroduced in 2001
A better set finisher than Blue Monday an all. Everyone remember Finsburgh?:D
Leave Me Alone, if only cos Your Silent Face as been a bit In Your Face since they reformed. Could do with a break from it.

If not seeing NO live in England for the first time in my life wasn't already the single greatest moment in my life so far, Seeing YSF live to finish of the set at finsbury was definately icing on the cake for me!
God, I feel so important ;) ... I just scored 12-11 for Leave Me Alone. It sends a chill up my spine, through my teeth, through my nose, onto my shirt! (or should I just get a handkerchief?)
"Your Silent Face, amazing to fall asleep to."
Yea Thats what it does to me!!!
I always thought it was the worst song on the get ready tour.
I think you can guess which song I'm voting for!

You should have hooked up with us lot when you were over, mind you, having one American with us was quite enough for Finsbury
Mr Gleed, you really think YSF was the worst on the tour? and not the horrible jazz version (for the 83rd time) of True Faith
I've been debating this one since PC&L Survivor started. Both are wonderful songs which bring back great "live" memories for me. However, it has to be YSF. A majestic song that IMHO is shown at it's best played indoors, I won't forget the Brixton Academy literally shaking to it in Dec '83. Not sure how it sounds these days, but for me it's the one.
YSF for me : just more symbolic of the true NO sound, and a better song IMH0.
I reckon this one's down to the wire (my vote makes it 14 apiece 
)
age of consent!
ok, i know.....
Your Silent Face because i don´t get why so many people LOVES Leave Me A-Loan....
Originally posted by John Lehmann You people voted off Age of Consent? Are you all nuts?
Don't blame me; I didn't vote it off!
With such a tight vote (20-20), I felt it was my duty to use my vote responsibly. I thus dug out PCL to give the contenders one last chance to swing my vote, and lo and behold, Your Silent Face won the day.
And it's now 21-21.
But why, why, did you all vote off Age Of Consent? 
..........and I break it!!!
YSF. Sent a chill down my spine as the first NO song at my first NO concert.
And I thought the battle between Vanishing Point and Dream Attack was close....
I'll let this one run for a while until we settle a winner for good..!
I put LMA in the lead
Both songs are classic New Order and my favourites of PCL, but Leave Me Alone is just slightly, slightly better.

The appeal of YSF is incomprehensible to me. It definitely puts ME to sleep.
Listened to the BBC version of YSF this morning and nearly fell asleep while driving my car (as remarks on this thread already suggested would likely be the case). Yes it has my vote.
well, YSF is 5 votes ahead already. it was really close but i think we have a winner..... well, maybe :D
it aint annoying live if you only saw them a few times, then its a joy & a treasure
three were far worse songs on the set, kw1 was great at liverpool, great at finsbree & you gotta dig it

Mmm, just woke up again; the pattern seems to be to sleep during the day and to be awake during the night. As for relax: going to prepare a CD for a girlfriend tonight. Opening song will be YSF definitely.
Originally posted by Patrick The meek being those who prefer music that puts them to sleep!!!
Yeah, the ones who prefer the girlier, the 'nicer' New Order songs! ;)
Sorry for liking this side of New Order... the likes of Leave Me Alone, Loveless, All Day Long and Turn My Way
:D
Don't like Run Wild though...
Looks like YSF is the winner. Amazing song definitly, but personally I liked LMA more.
Let's agree they are two brilliant songs :)

Normally, I agree with you Ben, but on this one I can't. LMA is one brilliant song. YSF is not in the same league.
Both the songs are good, but not in the same league as AOC, which I will reiterate is the best track, one of Hooky's defining moments.
With LMA & YSF, there really isn't that much to choose between them, and I find it strange that YSF has been referred to as a "Puts me to sleep song"???
Fookin ell, LMA isnae exactly 120bpm is it
Close the poll now Nicos
Originally posted by almanso well, YSF is 5 votes ahead already. it was really close but i think we have a winner..... well, maybe :D
The crowd thinks it's all over ........ well .......
5 votes ahead....I think that's conclusive :)
Unless Nic is an ardent LMA supporter of course :(

Add me to your MSN Messenger list and I'll gladly send you the mp3. I have pretty much every New Order cover out there.
Originally posted by Spotnick :DDon't like Run Wild though...
Wow.. I thought I was the only one..
Oh yeah. I may as well mention I'm a Your Silent Face supporter too. So yeah. That's what I chose... Mmhmm... I donno... Leave me alone..
boo! whine! i wanted LMA to win!
oh well...it was a good contest. and YSF is certainly an excellent song.
congratulations to Your Silent Face! :)
Yeah, I agree we can close the books by now. I favoured 'Leave Me Alone', too, but 'Your Silent Face' obviously has a broader appeal (no surprise there).
