WHAT REALLY HAPPENED TO CRYSTAL
"Crystal was originally planned as a track exclusively for mfs which bernard
gave to mfs label manager mark reeder. he wrote the song for mark and also
sang it and i and a couple of other mfs artists made the music for our versions (not remixes). but after pete tong heard them he thought it was the best new order single he´d heard since blue monday (not knowing that bernard had given the song to mark as a present)and the project was then rearranged to become a new order record.
what that meant was that mfs were not actually allowed to release it as originally planned - in june 2000 - until new order knew what they were going to do with it.
