Putting this song up may get you thrown out of the forums! Best: When Hook plays the first notes on his bass. This is the joy of New Order encapsulated in a few small seconds. Worst: The doo-do-do-do-doo etc. It kinda fits and kinda doesn’t. And it always makes me ask, “where are the colored girls?” Why Love It: One absolute treasure in the song – to repeat myself - is Hooky’s bass. The sound and melody are in such a stark contrast to the apparent triviality and humor of the lyrics. Love the ending – how can the CD be scratching like an LP? Bernard cracking up is great. The, as you so well put it, lovely synths following the pause are always a highlight (another joy of New Order). New Order’s strategic use of the hand-clap is terribly underrated. The one drawback is the potential novelty factor. Percentage Rating: 77%. Favorite Movie: too tough to pick a single favorite (and too many yet to be discovered and enjoyed to place any finality on the question!). But one of my favorites: Miller’s Crossing, the Coen Brothers. Just a delightful film. Never get tired of Albert Finney and Gabriel Byrne. Just look into your heart.

1. The ending synths, crazy outro effect, Barney pissing himself over the lyrics 2. A bit dull 3. Shows they still have a sense of humor 4. 90% 5. I really have to pick ONE?! I'll get back to you on that... Edited by: 2005 > 2010 on 24/04/2005 1:53:15 PM - 1:53:15 PM
