Separate from the rest, where I like you the best
Its heartbreak time on 'The World Won't Listen'. Another theme you lucky reader. Great songs to feel miserable by. I've shed a few tears over these thats for sure.
First up is New Order with 'Love Vigilantes', track one on 'Low Life' probably the finest of their albums. When thinking of favourite New Order songs it nearly always is the first on my list.
Second is 'Between the Bars' by Elliott Smith. Such a talent and such a waste, this appeared on the 'Either/Or' album. They say that the geatest sad songs occur in a state of abject despair. Poor Elliott must have been in perpetual misery for he produced some of the very finest.

As a bonus you fortunate person I've included the Hungry Lucy version of 'Love Vigilantes' for you to compare.
