petronia"Regret" is one of those songs I never think of posting, because I assume everyone has it already. Upon consideration, however, there's no real overlap between the New Order heads on my lj-friends and the, er, wild-eyed GB enthusiasts, and this is for the benefit of the latter. It's a mark of how much I like the series that I'd give it this song, rather than vice-versa.
So here's to the Get Backers with an S:
New Order - Regret
New Order - Regret (New Order Mix)
Get Up Kids - Regret
Color Filter - Regret
(Yeah, when I post a song I like it comes with all the mixes and cover versions. XD The mix is more danceable than the original, along the lines of what you'd expect from New Order, i.e. something like "Bizarre Love Triangle". The first cover is fuzzy-indie-rock-ish, with variable tempo and half the notes swapped out. ^^; The second is actually off a Japanese tribute album, and awash with ethereal Shibuya-kei electronica.)
If I could be in a band I'd play the bass. I blame this on John (oi,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
joliefolie, apparently he's going to tour with Duran Duran), but especially on Hooky.

XDXD
i have at least one live version of "Regret," from Reading '98. i might have more. shall have to check. i bet it's on the 316 DVD that just came out in North America yesterday, though. which has concert footage from Reading '98 and also the entire contents of the Taras Shevchenko video of one of their first post-Ian concerts in 1981, at the Ukranian Home in NYC. "Regret" itself might also be on the 511 DVD (which also came out in NA yesterday), which is the gig from...was it Old Trafford? eep, i've forgotten. anyway, it's from last year. so probably some "Regret," although i wouldn't guarantee it.
what i REALLY need to refind is my stupid BBC Live In Concert disc from Reading 1987. that set started out really well and then slowly fell apart and was in complete shambles at the end. however, there's a really good live version of "The Perfect Kiss" on, which they don't like to do anymore. it's REALLY good. and the cover of the Velvet Underground's "Sister Ray" is pretty ace, too. ^^
