[kj] Lists....always fun!

[Nick Scott]

Well, I managed to know about 10 of that selection 😳 and can also tell you that
the number 20 Calvin Harris is not a cover and has some truly terrible lyrics.
 Anyone know if Benny is still drumming for Calvin?

As for New Orders album, personally I find it shocking, truly shocking (well
perhaps marginally better than Waiting For The Sirens Call)...there again I have
found NO to be a mixed bag since 'Technique'.  Seeing live footage of them from
Maida Vale for 6 Music as well as on youtube they have somehow become dad rock
and the worst tribute act to New Order.   I was embarrassed to hear one of my
favourite songs 'Lonesome Tonight' bastardised in their live set.

Peter Hook & The Light do a far better job with old New Order songs in my
opinion, having dual bass helps emulate the high and low bass patterns on a good
number of songs..
