Oh, you've got green eyes Oh, you've got blue eyes Oh, you've got Poll eyes: NEW ORDER Artist poll #37 (voting ends May 26 Midnight Pacific)

That is the sound the sun makes as it rises. If you listen closely and you're up at that hour, you can hear it.

they were so cool they hired "the Killers" as proxies for the "Crystal" video.

I still haven't voted. My ballot looks like a 15 year old made it. I might leave it that way.

As I've been thinking abt NO it strikes me how arbitrary my line is for lyrics that are too trite/corny/bad. Love Less is ok/Every Little Counts is not ok.

six hour are left

Yeah!! Ballot sent!! I just couldn't rank the 40 songs. Dreams Never End is my #1 followed by 1963 and Dream Attack. After that it would have taken me forever to rank the rest. Could I put Leave Me Alone before Sunrise? Where's Weirdo place? Temptation vs Touched by the Hand of God? Sleeper track is Mr. Disco. Hope it places high!! Most New Order video by long shot - Round and Round.

i expect my #1 to be at least top 5 - but i reckon i'll be well on my own with my #2

we so far have 37 for artist poll 37, not including mine.

VOTING IS STILL OPEN

and one more!

i have sent confirmation emails, if you haven't received it than re send it please.

I wouldn't vote the same way again. I did what I hate and voted strategically to ensure post Regret tracks got fair representation. Kind of fitting that I'm now filled with regret.

i hope it's not too late

voted!

you guys sure love "Crystal."

i'm going to bed, so if you are a bit late i will still count it.

finally voted

Yep, me too.

I wanted to vote but am on holiday. Ballot would have had a lot of 'technique'. Looking forward to the results.

I voted for 'face up' as my #2 too

oh if only that was it

I'll be amazed if my #1 appears on anyone else's ballot tbh

nah I voted for "Sooner Than You Think" too

You shouldn't joke about that. You're getting my hopes up.

no one has mentioned my #1 afaik but i'm confident it'll squash the competition
everyone loves "world in motion" right?

the elephant in the room, surely a #1 contender

that was in my top three, yes

might as well admit it... that's my number one. On some days, I really do feel that it might be my favourite song of all time.

And this is still one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen on the Internet:

foreeeeeeever

I admit I didn't vote for it, because to me it's more "Joy Division", the b-side sounds especially like Ian. (The a-side, less so)

the 12" does credit the song to joy division

maybe but who will take credit for "world in motion"?!

ASCAP lists both 'Ceremony' and 'In A Lonely Place' as being composed by Curtis/Hook/Morris/Sumner.

'World In Motion' is worth it for this bit:

and the way Peter Beardsley badly mimes "express yourself" in the video.

i always wondered who The England Man was!

you mean En-ga-land

He reprised it for a Mars Bar advert later on...

Allen wrote the Barnes rap, right? It's a clear precursor to the England's Irie rap

Yeah, I think so... I think he had a hand in the lyrics generally, though, not just the rap.

huh, listening to Lost Sirens again and I may have made a mistake in not considering "Hellbent" for my ballot

i am digging that album. just listening to it on spotify. there is nothing brilliant like eg bizarre love triangle of course but even the leftovers of their last album are pretty solid and mostly quite lovely. are they ever going to reform? hooky doing joy division and early new order albums live is really sad, recycling and reviving the past, what a waste of time.

The pristine mix helps "Hellbent"

I must be the only one who thinks "Hooky had a point" and that he's O.K. Really.

this is coming together quite nicely. i have seen a few of the photos that Millsner has put together for us. looking outstanding.

results will start to roll out in about 24 hours with the actual tracks starting around noon California time on Thursday.

Mark - you might like Hooky on the Sound Opinions podcast last week.
