This does not really cut it, sort whiny and repetitive at the same time.

Yep, you're not wrong there, but the vocals on this suck the big one. I'm a New Order fan and have a few of their albums, but I really can't be doing with the singing on this number.
Man, I dropped out of music listening for a long time, but this is certainly not the New Order I used to groove to. It's OK

Might have something to do with the singing Sirens that lured sailor to crash on the rocks of their island? Maybe?

wow. this is the only New Order song I've ever DISLIKED. Weird. Maybe I just need to get used to their "new sound"...

This song is fantastic as 99% of New Order songs are... This reminds me ALOT of Lightning Seed's "Crowdpleaser" for some reason. I love it!

This jams! I've never heard New Order before, although I've heard of them for a long time.

This song is definitely a different direction for the band, but I don't think Barney has the voice to really carry off this style of singing. It needs someone with more "oomph".

Wow - talk about a stylistic shift.
Not bad, though.

Came over to say about the same.
