1- Best bit: The chorus "It takes years to find the nerve....." 2- Worst bit: I have to agree with Mr. Eastwind. What the heck is a "literasite" BTW? 3- I hate the nerve Big Fat Bob Smith had had a couple of years earlier in plagiarising this beautiful song with a very inferior ditty. 4- 70% 5- Major, tell your dad we have being waiting far too long for his next movie!

  1. The 'illitracites' line: c'mon, he's taking the piss out of his own lyrical shortcomings!!

  2. Doesn't have a 'worst bit'.

  3. Love it 'cos its got that schoolboy petulance/defiance about it. And that 'orchestral' synth riff.

Ok Major here ya go :D

  1. Best Bit,

Hookys intro The way Barney delivers the line "i dont a damn about, what those people say"

  1. Worst Bit,

It weighs in at a measly 3min 24sec

  1. Why you love / hate it,

Love it cause it comes in after the tragic fine time and precedes one of the songs with my all time fave lyrics, guitar, in fact one of my all time fave tunes :)That harminca sounding thing.

  1. A percentage rating,

87.9%

  1. Thing you love most about Major Tarantino

You can always find him in the crowd at a NewOrder concert :D

Could've sworn this song had been done before, but I'll review it again.

Best thing about it is the intro, Hooky's bass, plus it's fairly short.

Worst thing are the lyrics.

It's an okay song, and I don't have it on many compilation tapes, just listen to it when playing Technique.

Rating 70%

He's got a good-looking avatar, plus he originated this thread concept. Good job on that.

  1. The fact it's a bit 'rocky' perhaps helps it along.

  2. Unfortunately it sounds like it's trying too hard. Maybe it's just the production, I dunno, but everything on the A-side of Bro'hood had bags more character, and the likes of Sunrise and Age of Consent before that proved that New Order can do raaack so much better.

  3. Really think I've missed the point entirely. Probably the weakest moment on Technique, IMO. Oh no, that would be Guilty Partner. So call it 8th in a 9 horse race. But only by a head.

  4. 30%.

  5. I bought shares in bleach on Major's recommendation. He hasn't let me down!

  1. Best Bit, 2. Worst Bit, 3. Why you love / hate it, 4. A percentage rating, 5. Thing you love most about Major Tarantino

Best Bit: The opening vocals, the chorus, the guitar playing

Worst Bit: One of the rare songs where I simply don't like the bass playing. Doesn't work for me in this.

Why I love it: Love the lyrics, for the most part, love the confidence of the song, it sounds like a man whose come to terms with himself and in Ian Curtis' words, "...[isn't] afraid anymore...". Love the song.

Percentage Rating: 90%

Thing I love about Tarantino: The moniker.

Seems that the week when this song was reviewed is long past but anyway, just in case:

  1. Best bit: the lyrics, the main bass riff (for the rest part, the bass is doing a bit too many solos, even for hooky), the vocals, the drums;
  2. Worst bit: the synths in the middle of the song, the guitars - both of these are quite tolerable though and help make a great song;
  3. The chorus makes a perfect soundtrack to drinking yourself silly and singing along.
  4. Rating: 98% - but I'd give this to just about any NO / JD track on earth (maybe apart from Bizarre Love Triangle);
  5. Who is Major Tarantino? Pardon my ignorance.

  1. Best Bit, Very good chorus with clever lyrics "To find the truth inside yourself, not depend on any one"

  2. Worst Bit, Could have been ever better with better production. Seems a bit flat

  3. Why you love / hate it, Along with Run the best bit of Technique. Much better than the overated Vanishing Point and the dreadful Dream Attack

  4. A percentage rating, 90%

-Should have been the pilot single instead of Fine Time

I sorta have to agree with you. It never really grabbed me either. I always found it a bit pedestrian & ordinary for a NO song.
