The NO Cup Fourth Round - CEREMONY vs TEMPTATION

Poll closes 8pm GMT Tuesday 11th April 2006

sorry temptation has my vote. both are iconic new order songs.

Ouch.

But ouch more for Ceremony.

ties don't get much bigger than this

Ceremony for me.on another night it would have been Temptation though

Temptation got me into new order and is not written by joy division.

hard and harder...

Ceremony... for the curious thing that fills me when Peter Hook starts to play this song live...

im gonna have to come back to this one. the originals of both tracks are ridiculously amazing

I voted for Temptation because at the end of the day I like NO because their music can be exuberant and liberating. Ceremony is fantastic from start to finish and it's one of my favorite songs ever, but it's melancholic in a way. Temptation is more uplifting, and it is the track that really got me hooked on NO.

Tough call, and maybe on a different night I'd change my mind.

Ceremony, no trouble.

Temptation has became The Cure's A Forest a long time ago.

Its getting nasty now,but Ceremony remains uppermost for me,and this would probably be my final.

Ceremony is great, but Temptation has been my favorite song of all time since I heard it in 87. Have to go with Temptation.

may have lost against Dreams Never End but Ceremony - Still- World will travel oh so quickly. Avenues all lined w/ trees..

does barely win over, Temptation's hit the ground. Never met anything like it before. ouch the Mixes.

another very hard choice

temptation

Temptation may be their finest tune.

Temptation but only just...

Temptation is probably on par with Ceremony melody-wise but I think is getting a bit tired in it's live form. I also think Ceremony is a better song lyric-wise even if the lyrics were written by someone who offed himself before JD had the chance to become Factory's equivilant to U2. Sorry to see it go. If Regret gets up(despite my nightmares about the Hoff) and faces off against Temptation, things could get really interesting(I'd back Regret though).

Ceremony

Ceremony is the best thing out there. Period.

I'm under the impression Barney wrote about half the words to Ceremony, due to Ian's mumbling on the demo. Barney's lyrics are underrated, and Temptation's lyrics suit the music perfectly.

Im not voting in this one

Cant pick between the two

For the record yes! I can send you my ticket if you wish, but, not one for living in the past buster, so here's too today and not yesterday. You know you gonna get whipped, and, if not i'll pay for your pearl jam festival ticket or whatever it is. Deal???????

Temptation is very lively and it makes me wanna dance.

TEMPTATION

Impossibly difficult, I'll go with Temptation, but don't ask me why...

Snorri xxx

this is like choosing which of my cats to give to the pound. screw it. temptation.

Both tunes still continue to liven out the gigs when needed. Temptation it is though, not their first dance track but the first one that truly screams out NEW ORDER to me.

Ceremony
