1. Power, Corruption & Lies
Released: 2 May 1983
596 Points, 15 Votes, 0 Number Ones

Fuckin Pitchfork babies

I love Guilty Partner. One of Bernard’s best lyrics (seriously low bar there). I enjoy the songs that feel the most autobiographical, and this is one of those.

Zero number 1 votes.

that was crazy and still managed to come in first.

I should have voted in the albums poll, not sure if it would have made a difference.

Fuckin Pitchfork babies

lol. i had them both in there but Technique was higher.

Unknown Pleasures and Technique both had 5 number one votes, so that ended up being a draw. Unknown Pleasures did get an extra vote, 12 vs 11, so that is what tipped the scales. Power, Corruption & Lies was on just about ever ballot submitted.

Unknown Pleasures is the best, I think it made up 7/10 of my tracks ballot

I will always have a soft spot for Movement. I was the #1. Almost included 1981-1982 but disqualified it due to being an EP and opted for Substance (NO) instead.

81-82 EP is the best single piece of vinyl in their entire catalog to me. My favorite New Order thing to listen to is my expanded 81-82 playlist with this EP, plus Ceremony, and tracks from Peel Sessions and Movement.

Unknown Pleasures is the best, I think it made up 7/10 of my tracks ballot

6/10 of mine (but I started out higher).

well you don't get a tan like this for nuthin'

I love Try All You Want so much. It sounds so huge on a big system. It's too bad Kevin Saunderson wasn't asked to remix this one at the time. It has a great bassline.

It's interesting that the albums that ended up at 3 & 4 are vastly superior to the ones that ended up at 1 & 2.

I'd forgotten that PC&L finished a close second in the New Order poll, so I guess it's not that much of an upset ... but still, ahead of both Technique and Unknown Pleasures? Maybe because it's the perfect bridge between what JD was and what NO would become?

Technique was my #1. PC&L is more uneven, but the highs are pretty high. Your Silent Face", "Leave Me Alone" and "Age of Consent" are all top-10 New Order tracks for me.

i' up and ready to go

Released: 2010
81 Points, 2 Votes

i see Stephen Morris is also in the video playing drums but not sure if he is actually on this track. in fact i can't find any information in regards to this track. if anyone knows any history of this track please share.

that should read:

From: Hot Chip, Bernard Sumner & Hot City

19. Out of Control
From: The Chemical Brothers
Featuring: Bernard Summer (vocals, guitar)
Released: 11 October 1999

83 Points, 3 Votes, 1 Number One

sorry, 2 Votes

I think i need some coffee.

The music video of the song was directed by W.I.Z.. The video's cast includes actress Rosario Dawson and Michel Brown, and depicts a Mexican conflict between government and EZLN, a revolutionary group that appeared during the 1990s. Then is revealed to be an advertisement for a fictional Coca-Cola-type beverage. The camera pans out to reveal it being displayed in an electronic shop, before the storefront is smashed in and the video ends with shaky night-time footage of violent urban riots, shot on handheld cameras.

Interesting start and two songs I really don't know.

ok, i changed the formatting a little bit. you would think this was my first poll.

17. Feel Every Beat
By: Electronic
From: Electronic
Single Released: September 9, 1991
101 Points, 3 Votes

The A-side is a combination of rock and house music, and is a favourite of both the two members Johnny Marr and Bernard Sumner. Marr began an early version of "Feel Every Beat" with the intention of releasing it on a solo album. Sumner's lyrics are about the criminalisation of rave culture in Britain.

16. Spanish Heart
By: 808 State
From: ex:el
Featuring: Bernard Summer (vocals)
ReleasedL 4 March 1991
104 Points, 3 Votes

i saw this 808 State tour and according to my ticket stub it was on Saturday Night September 14, 1991. it was a rave, when they were a big thing here in Los Angeles. i will never forget as it was at where they housed the Spruce Goose. so here you have all these kids jacked up on ecstasy, watching 808 State and then it because one huge party. it was trippy as you were at a club with this huge gigantic plane in the middle of it all. i had such an advantage living in Los Angeles when the rave culture stated here. i have so many stories with other exotic locations like the Spruce Goose.

I've seen 808 State three times, every gig tremendous. "Spanish Heart" had the advantage of coming out at the same time as Electronic's debut and my discovering the New Order universe, therefore I love it.

105 Points, 3 Votes

Pleasant, inessential.

That video is so hilariously bad. But hopefully this means a top ten finish for "Selfish"!

i do like her voice. i know it really wasn't New Order's style but i would have thought they would let her sing on a b-side or something.

14. For You
By: Electronic

Single Released: September 16, 1996
116 Points, 3 Votes

damn there is no information about the video. i wanted to hear the story about the tank rolling over that camper.

Thanks for running the poll, Bee! This was a fun poll -- I wasn't sure what to expect from such an odd mishmash of mini-polls but the results turned out better than I expected.

I don't think Bee OK has posted since this poll, sad face.

I watched Control last night and made me think of this poll.
