I am totally , totally going really feeling cold playing these songs. The words somehow do bring into reflection the things that's bothersome or discouraging. It's the same tinge, that New Order sound. At the moment I unusually have this free time so I tried to listen closely, I did try to listen closely, to try to find out how the songs came to be. Now that the original bassist (Mr. Peter Hook) is out of line, New Order still has not lost its spunky soul, continues to bring and lift the hearts of listeners who believe in their magic. For hundreds, thousands, if not million listeners who reside here in my own home country Philippines, decrepit, solid and strong homes shall remain with the spirit of the city we call New Wave.
Spunk Back Home True
by Ryan Avellanosa y Cervantes
What do we have here? It does seem kind of surprising how bands reunite themselves to form another set of songs that they would eventually have to set free and keep in motion. Peter, Stephen, Bernard and that chic. I could recall their past groupings, satellite recordings and other stuff. We or I got to listen to Bad Lieutenant, Electronic and The Other Two.
What can I say? They were some sort of like a fraud in the 80s that had us dancing and clouded, dazed in our teenage years. The stuff that produced a world that's renowned to somehow make us feel young again,or just to stop time and keep us abreast of the memories of that piece of heaven we fought to own and stay, unmindful of the other reality that somehow should not dominate other notions cultural. I and every each one of us should find time for self culture. Such is this type of music that somehow stuck and remain.
All along this stride, and the music culture of college music, new wave, modern rock,.. new music, one can't deny how good New Order was before, and still is anyway not mentioning their roots which we somehow seem to forget how or might need to be deleted from memory.
There's Joy Division, Monaco , and some other stuff they're associated with. Spunk, spunk, and the spunk.
It does semm kind of obvious and thus has made one feel psychicly or cyclicly stupid for we found ourselves strange or might feel estranged on moments we felt free in our singularities. Every once in a while when
one does need to do be so, and these moments shared for a generation that remained strong and high strung.
And before this release, I must say though that this could blow up in your face. In honor for the friendship, I took the time to listen and write the lyrics of this wonderful single. Take heed for it might just change your way of thinking.
Singularity
winter came so soon
and summer never happened
with players on a stage
with roles already scripted
working for a wage
we're living for today
on a giant piece of girth
spinning in the universe
I can hear/feel your presence/cry out there
and I can feel you close to me/everywhere
(winding softly through the air)
one day at a time
inch by inch
for every kiss
on lovers' lips
for all the souls
we can't conform
for friends that aren't here
we shed our tears
and all i wanna do
make the right impression
an instrument of truth
a soldier with no weapon
I guess so much for you
I crawled a thousand miles
in deserts full of sand
for love on every land
Hey, you, what is the matter
Tell me the truth, I won’t laugh at you.
Were his words cruel
Were they unkind
That guy’s a fool, he’s crossed the line.
I’ll stay with you
Till hell freezes over.
We are to each other
Like sister and brother.
You’re one of a kind,
High on my agenda,
Oh, I’ll change your mind,
When will you surrender Remember that day,
Your world fell apart
It cut like a blade
Right through your heart.
And where were your friends
Just when you needed them
They were not there
Why did you believe in them

For his first major mix album, Jacques Lu Cont assumes the role of the listener's coolest, most in-touch friend, who's always making great mix tapes chocked full of great obscure tracks and familiar classics, meanwhile bending conceptions of style and genre by placing radically different artists in the same context. As expected, Lu Cont's tastes are impeccable, and he has no trouble choosing excellent tracks that undoubtedly influenced electronica producers (however indirectly), from Chaka Khan's "I Feel for You" to the Pixies' "Monkey Gone to Heaven" to Grace Jones' "La Vie en Rose" to the Beach Boys' "In My Room" to Salsoul Orchestra's "Nice 'n' Nasty" to New Order's "5-8-6." Lu Cont also shows he's got his finger on the button of what's happened more recently, with a deft cover of "Ashes to Ashes" by Atom Heart's Lb, Felix Da Housecat's "My Life Musik" (from his Thee Maddkatt Courtship project), the electro-D.I.Y. group Ladytron's "Playgirl," and a DMX Krew remix of Cylob's "Rewind," which apes the unlikely results of Stephen Hawking jumping on the mic at his favorite club space. As far from the trance-happy mix series Global Underground as could be expected, and leagues better for listeners interested in hearing a great thematic compilation. - allmusic
