From these photographs, we can see that Ian Curtis certainly owned a lot of shirts!

Immense.

"You should hear our version of Louie-Louie" Ah-ha-ha, was that a Motorhead joke? :)

Don’t stain the carpet, love this tune 1234

I do belive he stained the carpet in the end!!!

Somewhat like VU, influenced everything that came later though the fans of the mega bands had no clue

Trivia: This is the only cover version that Joy Division ever recorded.

Anyone know why the lyrics are different from the Velvet Underground version?

This is fantastic, better than velvet underground version.

Probably better than the original

This has a very Bowie vibe to it.
