Hi Jack-k-k-k-k.
This is even more of an uneven contest than TPK v Dream Attack that some idiot on here thought would be a good match.
Also, you might want to do polls in the "State of the Nation" forum (or put them into Digital Republic just to piss people off who don't like polls).
That said, welcome to the madhouse. It's Temptation by a huge country mile by the way.![]()
no contest. TEMPTATION
it doesn't help that you're comparing what is considered among their best songs with among their worst.
Probably 'State Of The Nation', though I actually prefer 'Shame Of The Nation' to any of the other versions.
'Temptation' is great aswell of course.

I certainly hope you're joking.

Nope! ![]()
Shame of the Nation always reminded me of the Ghostbusters' theme, although State of the Nation really isn't that horrid. It's not like it's "Run", "Fine time," or "Every little counts."

Run is one of my favorite songs.

Run is one of my favorite songs.
Whenever I listen to Technique (which actually has been a lot recently), I find myself skipping over Run. It bores me, pretty much.
hmmm...this was not a very difficult choice...I can listen to Temptation over and over...the other one...I could go without ever hearing again!
Originally posted by Mick Aneworderfan People, this poll's a joke... I mean, it's like asking "True Faith vs MTO"
And exactly whats wrong with M.T.O.? Its a club classic in the UK.![]()
Nothing wrong really, and I also like State Of The Nation, but they can't be compared to New Order's truly greatest songs, like Temptation, Perfect Kiss, True Faith etc.
I actually really like SOTN, just a TINY bit better than Temptation. But hey, what do I know, my favorite album is Movement.
Temptation, SOTN is the worst attempt at political insight i've ever heard, although DOTN is alright.
STATE OF THE NATION
Why?
Better look where I come from :D :D
SHAME OF THE NATION-even better! ![]()
I'll play devil's advocate and say...
nah, wouldn't want to engage in blasphemy! Temptation it is by a mile. ![]()
Temptation.
I'm trying to figure out if the poll was serious or a joke.:D
Although I did like the cover art for SOTN. One of the more inscrutable they've put out.
