And at the gigs Barney and Hooky could share a passionate kiss.

Yuck. :nonono:

Egad, what a lineup. I also suppose Pink Floyd, just cause I can't ever imagine of the other songs done by 'em. :eek: 'N Hey! Mighty Quinn is a Bob Dylan song.

Too Many People by PSB. I know it's a b-side, but it IS the BEST NO song NO never wrote.

Of the list above, I'd be curious to hear Enter Sandman :D

But as related in a "Dream Cover" thread near you (Ricardo? :D), I'd sure see them do 1979 by the Smashing Pumpkins.....

You only know 'Macarena'? Where have you been all your life??!!!!

They WOULD do a great cover of 'Sanctury', I`ll agree with that. Believe it or not, most of the ones I listed were as a (ssh!) joke. My bad!

Good call - Enter Sandman would be very interesting

None of these listed. However, in a previous thread many moons ago I gave a list of songs I think it'd be interesting hearing them cover and on the top of my list was "Paint it Black" by the Stones. Ian McCullogh from Echo & the Bunnymen covered it really well, why not our Barney? I think it'd "interesting" - freely interpret that as you like. ;)

I love 'Too Many People' but I think it sounds more like a house track than a New Order song.

What`s all that bollocks about 'Paint It Black'? The Rolling Stones are just a geriatric joke, New Order would be better off releasing an album of Peter Andre songs!

The most appropriate Stones cover I ever heard was this piss-funny version of 'Jumpin Jack Flash' done by a German group with a Stephen Hawking-voiced singer. They also did 'Anarchy In The UK' & 'My Generation' tho....

Hey, I resent that! Sure, maybe expecting New Order might one day cover a Russian Lesbian Hit or a Nu-Metal Skater Song might be strectching it a bit, but I truly DO want to know which N.O member people think would be the best professional wrestler!

There's only about 4 people in the UK give a fuck about wrestling, and none of them are New Order !

you may be right. considering hooky's sartorial sense and hairstyles, he's probably more into NASCAR.

I would vote for those Russian gals coz they are lesbian and I guess it would be funny how Bernard and the boys would cover a lesbian song. Give them a try. By the way I'm not lesbian!!!!!! I just love how women love each other because they are cute. That's it. New Order is a great band enough to cover anything. P.S. By the way I don't know the other bands.

How do you know if New Order like wrestling or not? I wasnt aware you are Hookys housekeeper or Gillian`s gardener.

Honestly, some of you lot skipped the queue when God was handing out senses of humour....

This clearly doesn't have much to do with New Order, so could a moderator please shift it to the "irrelevant shite" forum please ?

Etiquette? Oh, la di da, Timothy! I wasn`t aware one had to be well-up on the finer points of modern society to a) be a New Order fan & b) post on this board

And as for being "irrelevent shite", that, my friend, is what makes the world go round. If all we had to do was talk about the serious side of New Order here, things would be very boring, & topics would get repeated too often, like they are already
