"Blue Monday" came up. "Oh, is that New Order?" the woman next to me said. Her companion said, "No, no." Prat. Nothing is more New Order, eh?

The guy's probably only heard the Orgy cover that was all over the radio a few years back. Apart from a few harsh tones, it was pretty hard to tell from the original (thus rendering it completely unnecessary).
