Posted January 28, 200817 yr Results of RetroClash #53 New Order - Blue Monday [ 6 ] [50.00%] Martha & the Muffins - Echo Beach [ 4 ] [33.33%] Alphaville - Big in Japan [ 2 ] [16.67%] Blue Monday finally triumphs over Martha & the Muffins and beats out Alphaville as well. In an effort to get away from the 80s for a while I will be going for tracks from earlier decades for the next few clashes. First up is Slade. While it may not be the best of their songs but I have certain affection for it so next up is Slade with Coz I Luv You. You have until whenever I get round to announcing the results to vote! Previous Wins 9 wins Love Will Tear Us Apart (Joy Division) 8 Wins Take On Me (A-Ha) 5 wins Running Up That Hill (Kate Bush) Waterloo Sunset (The Kinks) 4 Wins Enjoy The Silence (Depeche Mode) 3 Wins I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For (U2) Paint It Black (The Rolling Stones) I Feel Love (Donna Summer) Blue Monday (New Order) 2 Wins Won't Get Fooled Again (The Who) 1 Win With Or Without You (U2) Living On A Prayer (Bon Jovi) Like A Prayer (Madonna) Paperback Writer (The Beatles) Another Brick in the Wall (Pink Floyd) Life on Mars?

January 28, 200817 yr New Order easily. Put up Human League's Human for a proper synth-pop battle. :cheer:
January 28, 200817 yr New Order. If it had been Far Far Away, How Does It Feel or Cum On Feel The Noize it could have been different for Noddy & the boyz. :lol:
January 28, 200817 yr I'm not sure what can topple New Order..... something similar in the same genre? Hmm..... maybe their own 'True Faith'? Maybe a Depeche Mode classic?
January 28, 200817 yr hell i went for Slade as well, first record I ever heard by them :lol: still like New Order too though
January 29, 200817 yr oh god can we get rid of 'blue monday'?.... 'cos i luv you' was imho slades best... what a superb track which unusually had a 'fiddle break'
January 29, 200817 yr ......... id vote for bob the fcukin builder to get rid of blue monday.... booorring.
January 29, 200817 yr Probably Slade's greatest track right enough, but you're kidding if you think it's going to beat Blue Monday.
