New Order's seventh studio album, Get Ready, had been in the shops since June 2001 when "60 Miles an Hour" followed "Crystal" out as its second single on 19 November, through London Records, with "Someone like You" next in line. Steve Osborne produced it and mixed it with Adrian Bushby, and the writing credit is split four ways between Bernard Sumner, Peter Hook, Stephen Morris and Gillian Gilbert.
It sits where alternative rock meets alternative dance, and it did respectable business: 29 on the UK Singles Chart, and 37 in Australia the following year.
