New Wave Outpost Forum

I'm kinda' new to New Wave, but after visiting this hub for a few weeks now, I know that New Order is the king of New Wave. What is their best song? I just saw them in California, and they closed with an encore of Don't Forget Me When I'm Gone, which is now my favorite by far!

Runners-up: Bizarre Love Triangle & Blue Monday.

Agree about New Order though - definately the kings of club music.

I picked Ceremony, but my heart goes to Temptation, the older version (not on the list).

And I've always loved Mesh deeply, but it's not as memorable as the others.

uh, let's see...

Your question is what is their best song?

You've got "both of their full length albums" but you list songs off of many different albums.

You don't include "Blue Monday" or "Temptation" or "Bizarre Love Triangle" but include a U2

I suggest you go out and buy some more New Order cds and then re-submit this poll.

Wow, I figured I might get some grief here, being new and all, but there has been more non-voters than voters! Every forum has their elitists though, so that's to be expected I guess. People seem to like Grayson's list better, but I just don't agree. Most

How can anything be the "Best" when it comes to music.

What's the standard of measurement?

Best = record they sold the most of - 12" Blue Monday
Best = song most # of people know - Bizarre Love Triangle
Best = ?

My personal favorites, for many
