absolute favorite side project song

Monaco, without a doubt.

Shine, fantastic bass, vocals as near to barney as you can get, at a time when NO were awol this was as good as it got.

At this moment in time, 'Some Distant Memory'- Electronic. I adore this track.

I was thinking about it the other day too. I always knew that Monaco was a great band but it's only recently that I've begun to think that their first album is probably the best of the side projects. I've been listening to it a lot lately with Kashmere always on repeat. :)

Disappointed seconded. What a great pop song

And there was me thinking that "How long" was your favourite one. Sounded pretty good though when we sang it in the rain walking along the streets of London. But I must admit that I'm slightly disappointed that of all those nice tunes you had to pick the one with Neil Tennant on vocals. Of course, it's the best thing Pet Shop Boys have ever done. :D

Playing "How long" now in your honor!

Well, How Long is my OTHER favourite!

I can't remember if I said it was my favourite on RTP or of all Electronic songs. I think I mentioned i like Gangster too.

Yes, that moment you mentioned was truly one of the highlights of that weekend in London. I need to play this song too now in YOUR honour!

2 or 3 weeks ago I think, but not much going on there. Anything worth checking out?

Trust me, if I had died yesterday I wouldn't have had an idea about it. Today I discovered just how intelligent I really am to turn the bloody sound on. Nice tune, by the way.

Glad you liked it!:)

Mine are:

Sweet Lips - Monaco Dark Angel - Electronic Idiot Country - Electronic Forbidden City - Electronic Junk - Monaco

"Get the message" - Electronic I love it! Marr's guitar makes it sound unique, Barney's voice is just perfect for the song! Love the lyrics, too!

Getting away with it and also (i think it featured steven and gillian), Optimism by Life (fac122)

All Shite

All Shite

Three way tie from Monaco:

• Happy Jack
• Blue
• Shine

I always head for these three songs first whenever I play Music for pleasure :) _

Monaco - Junk Electronic - Second Nature

Sorry it's a bit unrelated but i-tunes have the rather excellent superhighways by the other two avaliable for download @ the ripping price of only £7.99, i personally have been looking for this for so long and it has been well worth the wait, any NO fan worth their salt should buy this you won't be dissapointed !!

The Other Two and Getting Away With It are both superb, but my vote goes to the former.

Electronic's 1st album (if it wasn't for the bass missing, you could swore that it's 'Technique' follow up really, darn Excellent !!) and 'Pineaple Face' + 'What do you want from me' from Hooky.

Getting Away With It

Selfish - other two

anything else by the other two also

Pineapple Face.

I hear it new year's day whatever year that was and new right away it was New Order or Peter Hook or something. Still my fav b/c it's cool and it so made my new year.
