It's true- not sure how I know this, but I do.....lol
I think originally it was only released as a 12" and it was on the chart for an eternity.
..Yes it is the biggest selling 12 " single of all time...unfortunatly for New Order ,Blue Monday 12" was packaged in a die-cut sleeve designed to look like an old 5" floppy disc. A combination of excessive production costs and a record deal that favoured the artists meant that the record actually made a financial loss - the more copies that were sold, the more money Factory Records lost....
Magic Moments on Phillips 12"
The Queens favourite record I'm told.
