Round and Round

“Round & Round” is a song by the English band New Order from their fifth studio album Technique (1989). The song was written by band members Gillian Gilbert, Peter Hook, Stephen Morris and Bernard Sumner, and the album version was produced entirely by New Order. “Round & Round” was re-recorded for a single release, with Stephen Hague as co-producer.

Musically, it is one of the band’s most dance-centred songs, with few guitar or bass lines. Like the majority of New Order songs, the song’s title is not mentioned in its lyrics. “Round & Round” was selected as the second single from the album by Factory Records’ Tony Wilson over the wishes of the band, who wanted to issue “Vanishing Point” instead.
