Hoping this will be an easy one for someone to answer but I was tidying up my NO music library in a wave of post-Music Complete enthusiasm when I realised that what I had tagged as "Player In The League" was actually no such thing It's a 2:32 instrumental with a prominent Hooky bassline. I should know what it is, but my mind is compltely blank! Unknown NO SongSo what is it??

Dunno mate.Never heard it before.Might not even be Hook, could be a Hooky copyist , like that bloke out of The Cure or something.But if it is Hook maybe it's something from the studio Get Ready or WFTSC era that got binned but still made it out in to the world
So basically to answer your question - i've no idea what it is or where/when it's from, no.

Now you mention The Cure - you've got me thinking, it could quite easily be The Cure couldn't it?

Well the keyboards sound like NO but in that meh, uninteresting way some of them did in the 2000s.Which just highlights the fact that thank god Hook left and Gillian came back as he'd still be holding them back and the band would be creating those uninteresting keyboard sound within the songs.

I don't think it's New Order.
Although I am far from an expert on NO rarities.

This is actually a track named "Naked" by a Riverside, CA band called "The Flir". Here's the vocal version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEROuxSzz5gHere's the message from Sébastien Boisvert (NOOL webmaster) back from the day (2000, I think): "And, for the record, the Flir track is the one I had chosen two years ago for our April Fool's joke, when we went out and said we had an exclusive new track from New Order and it was called "Synthesized". It was probably the biggest number of downloads/day the site ever had in its history. HAHAHAHA".
