TEMPTATION (again)

1. Best bit is the whole bloody thing!

2. Can't really think of a worst bit.

3. Love it for the groove, the music, the lyrics, and for Kelly MacDonald singing it in Trainspotting

4. Rating 99.9

5. Most embarrassing moment with a significant other: almost being caught, of course.

1. The outro of the song
2. None really
3. Everything in the song fits perfectly, it has that cluttered sound while still sounding tight which rarely often works.

5. Suppose I had to have had a girlfriend to answer this. Now Im just depressed.

We would like to apologise for the inconvenience and hardship to all its cuntstomers that this will cause. 5B. People who hijack other people's ideas deserve to be frogmarched to the village stocks, locked inside them and be pelted with rotten fruit.

Ooh! good choice! 1/Best bit- 'ooooh oooh oooh', the chorus, barneys joyous nonsense lyrics, the whole bloody thing. 2/Worst bit- erm... 3/Me and my friend go mental when the dj plays it (all to rare). (Christ I nearly died when 'Transmission' was played) 4/92% 5/ Just think 'There's something about mary' and you'll get the general idea

1 Best Bit Being very broad here but ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING about this song is great. One of the catchiest songs ever and one that I find myself singing along to all day long.

2 Worst Bit No bad bits ....

3 Why you love / love it One of the first New Order songs I heard and really cemented my life long devotion to them ... I love it because its perfect to me .. Brings back memories whenever I hear it .. Its been there since the beginning for me ..

4 Percentage Rating 100%

5 Yer most embarrasing moment with yer bird / bloke My story is just to embarrassing .. Sorry !! .. Worse than anything on American Pie ... I'll leave it at that !!

best bit: when the drums kick in during the verses worst bit: ??? the vocals on the substance version are a bit sugary, but hey why it kicks ass: a song i can drive around screaming the lyrics in a barney-esque off-key manner, and it always makes me very happy even if i am in a shit mood, which is usually embarrassing moment: involved a friend's sister. i will not say anything more

1 Best Bit - that manic rush of musical force just before Barney starts singing when they play it live

2 Worst Bit - the fact that it is often near the end of the show when they play it

3 Why you love / love it - it is New Order to a "T"

4 Percentage Rating - 98.75%

5 Yer most embarrassing moment with yer bird / bloke - don't do embarrassing moments ! Haven't had one (yet), long may it continue :)

1...EVERYHING 2...NOTHING 3...CAN BE THE MOST SUBLIME LIVE TRACK 4...99.25% 5...FAR TOO EMBARRASING

'bout 100% cause I can't really imagine a better song. Worst bit is I've over played it a bit, and got just a little bit bored of it.

Most embarrassing moment - like I'm gonna put it on here....

I can't believe no one has mentioned green eyes, blue eyes, grey eyes as the best bit.

1. 'People in this world we have no place to go.....' Still gives me the shivers to this day.
2. There isn't a worst.
3. Encompasses everything I love about New Order in one lovely song, and when I finally saw them do it live last year it was one of my fave moments ever.
4. 99.9%
5. Probably with my first 'proper' boyfriend when my dad came over all 'American Pie dad' and decided he needed to give us a very clumsy safe sex lecture before he trusted he felt he could leave us alone together. :o I still cringe thinking about it to this day

BTW, where is Major?

Originally posted by Grigori Rasputin, the mad mystic of Petrograd Patrick...I can't decide between the oooooh ooooh...oooh ooh...and the eyes...AND THE PART ABOUT never having met anyone quite like you before...it's too difficult....ahhh..........

Well, Jeff, for me it's the eyes line that give me chills, especially when it's repeated.

1. Best bit? Fantastic integration of sequencers and live guitars.
2. Worst bit? That I don't have the lauded original version so I can contribute to "Best version of Temptation?" threads. Can I find that on AudioGalaxy?
3. Great throughout. Awesome song structure. It's a simple little one-bar sequencer line, but they keep it dynamic with the guitars and vocals...tons of energy and feeling, subtle guitar work, nice. Some fun lyrics too.
4. 94%
5. I was moving out of my grad student apartment and into my girlfriend's place, and my mother came over to help clean up and found a rather vile old used condom that had slipped into the register grate under the bed. That was a bit embarassing.

Temptation's the song I skip-over in order to listen to Blue Monday.

1 Best Bit - The rush you get when the intro syths kick in and the elation that washes over from the first line 'heaven a gateway of hope' to the 'oooh's' , 'last fookin time(live)' 'thoughts from above' bit.. bloody hell i could go on all day but i wont!! :D

2 Worst Bit - errr.... errr.... errr... nope sorry :D

3 Why you love / love it - a bit like the feeling i get with BLT, before i hear it im like.. ohh its Temptation AGAIN... but i just cant help loving it when it plays and just seem to be incapable of gettin bored of it after years and years of hearing it

4 Percentage Rating - 98% (but only simply cause there are two songs i genuinely like more than this... ;) )

5 Yer most embarrasing moment with yer bird - yer like im gonna tell u here! - catch me when im at Finsbury and ask me when im pissed!!

...you really picked a difficult one, didn't you?

1.) the guitars chiming in so sweetly the first time it gets to the "Up, down, turn around..." bit... 2.) when it's over. :( 3.) the entire thing is SO lovely, and SO well put together. there's not a single bad thing about it! 4.) 99.999996666666666666% 5.) :o all i'll say is, thank whatever deity you choose for indoor locks...

im afraid i have heard to many times to care im sick of it the only time i can bare it is when i hear the original version

I just picked up the live Reading version (on the 60 Miles an Hour Australian tour EP) and I love it. In fact, I'm gonna go play it now.

P.S. I'm terribly disappointed with the "embarassing moments." Come on, people...we're all close personal friends here.

:D YES. that version from Reading '98 ROCKS. and includes the ever-wunnerful "oh it's the last fucking time!"

...and for some strange reason, Barney COUNTING is what does it for me every time in that version, too. it's so good. i can't say enough good things about it, in fact.

(and hey, i gave more details than most people seem to be regarding my moment! :p )

no, no i didn't.

and i'm not going to, either.

Just post the photos and/or video on your site.

pay up first.

Oh you've got pink hair, oh you've got blue hair, oh you've got black hair.

...i'll thank you to take that lipstick camera out of the ceiling fan now, Gnu.

1 Best Bit - All of it but it has been said that the bolts from above part, more so when i saw them live, was the part that had me going mad 2 Worst Bit - Hearing the Tea Party drop in the blues eye part in their song temptation 3 Why - Do i I love it? The ladies love it, and do you know who else loves it? Your mother loves it!!! Its just one of the best songs they have written! 4 Rating - 98% 5 - Having your mother walk in on some freaky WWF inspired coitus positions was quite embarrassing, but now quite funny when i look back at it!!!

1. best bit: Lyrics for sure.
2. worst bit: I don't like all the "Oooh"ing. That could have been synth or guitar.
3. why you love/hate it: It's easy to get into, even if you aren't in the mood.
4. percentage rating: 87%

Excellent sheer brilliance.

1. it's just good stuff. perhaps one of the catchiest songs ever....gotta love that synth line...the "last fooking time" line live is just super.
2. a tad long in some versions; i like the original version or the 98 version.
3. one of the top 5 Order songs of all time, i think it's safe for all to say
4. 98%
5. no comment.

The best New Order song period!!!
