Got to disagree, TEK. Blue Monday was revolutionary, and while Tainted Love was a good cover version, Say Hello wasn't, too me, very memorable. Almond and Ball weren't great writers, but rather will be remembered for performances.

So it has to be Blue Monday, many aspects of that song were innovative, including the packaging.

Guilty pleasure say hello wave goodbye for me...but its met its match in blue Monday...new order for me

Blue Monday fir me

New Order - Blue Monday

Ps tek,sorry to be arsy about whats not included again...but had album from 87 on my ipod yesterday that i hadn't listened to in donkeys and had me thinking there was at least 3 tracks on it that could have graced your fine comp...the joshua tree

I was actually very close to putting in a couple of songs from that album (Where The Streets Have No Name+With or Without You).

But normally admitting you like anything by U2 on a football forum is internet suicide,so i bottled it.
