After watching Duran Duran win a lifetime achivement at the Brits (and making an arse of themselves at the same time!) I was curious if NOOLer`s would like to see New Order get one?
They`ve done enough to deserve one,but could they make it cool to get one?
I don't think it really matters. Heck, in about a decade, the Spice Girls, after a reunion tour, will probably get one as well.
They deserve one but they won't get it. The best bands usually get overlooked for things like that. :( It's not fair!

Oh i'm not proud of it. Believe me. Hence the anorak.
Well, New Order already received a well deserved Brit for Best Video for True Faith in 1987, and also received a couple of those Lifetime Achievements (one for Q magazine, the others I don't remember where...). Actually those awards are not entirely flattering, I sort of understand them as meaning something like this: "OK, you're old farts, you ain't trendy like the young dudes, you don't do a decent record since I went to school, but I remember a long time ago you did a couple of great albums and they also were chart hits, so here's your award, but now please retire." In fact, what I liked with Get Ready was the feeling that it wasn't just an average comeback album from former glories, but an excellent album made by a band that would be great even if it was their debut, and the fact they had 25 years of legend in their past was just a bonus.
It seems inevitable that the Spice Girls would have a Brit award. If Britney Spears has gotten a Grammy for something or other and Michael Jackson has gotten numerous awards, it sadly makes sense
