These are the ones that I didnt, & wouldn`t, include:

The CD Video`s of 'True Faith' & 'Blue Monday'
Non-Factory/London releases (i.e 'Video 586', 'Confusion' vs. Arthur Baker etc...)
The DVD`s of 'Crystal', '60 Miles' & 'Here To Stay'
CD singles issued outside of the United Kingdom which may be available over here on import

In this poll I would vote for CD2 of 'Spooky', not because it is my favourite New Order song (cos it isn`t), but because on that disc there is the best, most consistent selection of remixes New Order have ever put their name to

Regret. Ruined in a day CD2 almost won, though :lol:

what a tuff question - Round & Round just wins

Forgot to say in my first post that I didnt include 'True Faith 94', either of the '1963' CDs, or 'Blue Monday 95' (mainly cos theres a maximum of 20 options in a poll, but partly becuase I forgot!)

I dont rate 'True Faith 94' CD single much, the TWA Grim Up North remix is the only item of interest on that. CD1 of '1963' is incredibly shite, wheras CD2 (the one in the big white box) is considerably better, with decent mixes of 'True Faith' & 'Spooky' & the decent vocal version of 'Lets Go'.

'Blue Monday 95' CD Single was pants aswell, the free Blue Monday mix album with 'The Rest Of' was better, so I think I`ve included the definitive CD single list in my poll, only missing out the mainly-poor selection circa 1994-95

Barney`s dad: whereabouts in Derbyshire are you from?...

I was starting to think I was the only half-arsed New Order fan in this Godforsaken county until you showed up!

TBTHOG: for the Confusion Instrumental --- gotta love it when the guitar riff kicks in without any other backing.

James,

I couldnt be farther from you in Derbyshire - i live in Castle Gresley - S. Derbys. Though i do plan to move to Sheffield within a yr or so - which is quite near to you.

PS - wots with the wonky church in Chesterfield?

Maybe I am nuts, but I collect versions of Blue Monday, kind of started it all in the US clubs. It is not my #1 song, but I have a facination with it.
