1. Best bit: The synths and guitarts
2. Worst bit: It's too quiet, you can hardly hear it
3. Why I like it: It's OK

1. when both the drums, the bass, and the guitar come in. i like each one.
2. gets a bit repetitive, but not long enough to really tick me off. the vocal effect during the chorus rubs me the wrong way a bit.
3. one of the great early singles. the lyrics are good stuff. i wish it was faster.
4. 90%


My life ain't no holiday. I've been through the point of no return. I've seen what a man can do. I've seen all the hate of a woman, too.

I could gush about this track all day. I first heard it at my school disco (i was about 11 at the time),i wasn`t too fussed on music before this night. The track stuck in my head all night so i asked the DJ what it was. I begged my mum to buy it me-my first NO record! I`ve still got that copy now,admittedly i had to buy another years later cos its knackered. If it wasn`t for the DJ that night who knows what i`d be listening to nowdays!.Great!

1. One of their better early 'dance' sounds!

2. Procession is the A-side?

3. The singing Skeptical

1. the rhythmitic, pulsating sequencer. i absolutley love the long instrumental outro after Barney sings "show me," and how the sequencer gets louder and louder as Barney's guitar fades out, and how the sequencer slowly slips out of sync with the drums near the end. i think this was the first song New Order used a sequencer, and it woks brilliantly. Everything's Gone Green really is the blueprint for 586 and Blue Monday... one could really see the progression from live shows as they perfect EGG, 586, and BM one after another.

2. Martin Hannet's surprising dull production. not up to his usual standards. he made the song sound flat and lifeless, with no bass extension.

3. it's dark, pop, rock, and dance all rolled into one. a very important New Order song as they got progressively more confidant in their self-production and songwriting abilities. it really is the first song they broke out of the Joy Division mold after "Movement," and i think that's really important. my favourite New Order single.

Best--the haunted bass sound
Worst--bass could be louder, needs cowbell
Why--kick ass song all the way. Makes you move, makes you think. Clearly one of the prototypes of modern dance/techno music
Rated 93.5

Great Hooky bass.Great lyrics.But i agree the production is a bit flat and it could have been a lot better if they had kept it more true to some of the live versions like on the Taras Shevchenko vid from New York 81 or the Kilkenny gig April 83.The sequencer on those live performances is much superior.
