Love Will Tear Us Apart - with choir - Peter Hook & The Light @ Manc Cathedral 

A song which deserves its own church.

Holy crap this is incredible. The choir, the venue, the energy, even Hooky’s voice. It’s just perfect

I, for one, like his voice. The gruffness and passion he sings with is genuine; he means the words he's singing.

In the end, when he plays those last chords at 4:42 to 5:12... beautiful

This is the way song should be played. Hook is a rock n roll god and kept the spirit of Joy Division alive.

The ending is extremely emotional. When Hooky just playing those simple notes again. Part of a massive important song. He has a moment to reflect himself. Hooky god bless mate wow.

Hooky tells us to pray for a happy ending. I like to think it’s because Ian (Curtis) never got one, and that we should count our blessings in his memory.

The choir and Cathedral acoustics add a beautiful element to an already stupendously gorgeous song!

I have been watching anything I could get my hands on from Joy Division since 1983 and listening to all the odd releases my record shop in New Mexico could find. To see Peter Hook in this way is an emotional moment for me. Regardless of performance, to have a member of the original band on stage playing original songs may not be "pure" but it still has the ability to move me in ways their music only could. I am grateful to be in an age where I can bring this up in seconds on my PC and watch with excellent sound and video quality

It's always those people who crap on a person's voice or sound, but in this particular sound, its cool to have a drolling, rough, deep feeling type voice to compliment the lyrics. Especially as u get older, u soak in it. Props to hooky and the light and to all of us who still enjoy this music. All the ones that don't get it... listen again and do your homework.

This is a wonderful version of the song. The original is unbeatable and ians voice will never be replaced as thats unthinkable but at least hooky is passionate about playing the original songs from the band that started his career. respect to him. RIP Ian Curtis the lyrical god.

hooky has just as much right to do this song as anyone in Joy Division and New Order... and this is pretty good...

Such a great song through the ages. People will still listen to it in 2079. Great performance by Hooky, and that Choir is awesome.

A piece of history, thanks Hooky

"you know what I'm gonna pray for? A happy ending" :(

" And other time you like pray ? Now Its a good time to do it . Where you gonna pray for ? Nothing ll gave you´ve everything you need. And I ll gonna pray for a happy end. We should know all have a happy end ! " AMAZING !! God Bless You Peter Hook !!! IAN FOREVER !!

Absolutely magnificent, the backing singers add a fantastic touch coupled with being sot in black & white, well done Hooky, wish I could have been there to see this live

Compared to the " let's change the key of the original so Bernard can sing it but by by doing this, completely ruining the feel of the song" by far the better version. Don't get me wrong, you can do with your own songs whatever you want, but in this particular case, Peter Hook understands, better than the New Order cover version, where the emotion from this song comes from.

epically beautiful!!!!!!! Probably Ian is smiling from above....

Raw and heavenly at the same time,love Hookeys vocals and well his Bass playing is another level.....!

Hooky siempre recordando a Ian en cada concierto, es el mejor ex componente de Joy Division homenajeándole y un bajista magnífico. Su voz desgarradora y fuerte es la mejor para cantar estas canciones que nunca morirán. ¡Grande Hooky!

Sounds WAY better than Barney at least, plus he's playing it in the original key unlike New Order.

this performance makes me cry

sounds totally natural, the spirit the man was part of the creation of this song in the first place, he knows the song in a way only a creator can....obviously he & Ian have different voices.

Amazing performance, often come back to listen again...the combination of the song, the black and white, the choir and setting...it's just magic for such a meaningful song. A shame so many City fans have to leave negative comments about Hooky.

Brilliant Hooky- this is totally brilliant. Can wait for Boston. This is much better that the "New Order" version the others are touring with. Love the new choral backing -really awesome version

I went to a concert recently. And I saw this incredible bass playing guitar man with a great band. And I saw the light. I'm hooked now.

One of the most magical things I've ever heard. Good for you, Hooky.

Beautiful. Good luck to all talented youngsters in disadvantaged areas.

I wish this was on Spotify! I absolutely love this recording of Peter Hook and The Light performing LWTUAA

So much energy

Look, as retired drill instructor and punk drummer (briefly w/an iconic punk artist). I don’t typically cry. But the moment this started I almost burst into tears uncontrollably. I mean damn, Hooky! I just got emotionally punched in the face.

Great to see Hooky keeping the songs alive, fantastic atmoshphere

After all these years, this bass is killing me, thanx Peter!!!

This song gives me the goosebumps!! It’s perfect & Joy Division forever!! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🎶🖤🤗🔥🏆

The chorus makes this version angelical....forever Joy Division!!!

Immaculate version....wonderful!!!

well it gave me goosbumps :-)

I still cannot hear any cover of this song without getting a goosebumps.

Brilliant song, Great group, Orchestra brill Love to see them live.🔥👏😀👌😄❤

As a musician myself, it never ceases to amaze me the people who criticize artists and yet no doubt have never picked up an instrument or fronted a band , stepped onto a stage in front of thousands... But they think they know better....

Peter I love what you have done. Joy Division has always been my all time favourite band! ♥️👍💋

You know Ian had to be looking down, with pride...

Thanks Hooky just brilliant.

F***ing brilliant!!! Love the vocals!!! Manchester Blues...

total talent behind new order, him and ian talent behind joy division

Never saw an music video with such high contrast in black and whit.,Just fenomenaal, well done. Suits to the music very well.

Love the octave, dark, fearful and hopeless. Very surreal!

very fortunate to see peter hook and the new light live. great artists

Better live version than New Order has performed in years

I have been listening to joy division all my life, saw this fine man play in wellington NZ when he last was here, got so close I could smell him, but this version of LWTUA moved me to tears.

Wow, what a brilliant version, you can feel the passion 👍👌

I’ve seen Hooky twice in Portland and both shows were incredible. It’s time for another.

Love his voice, he gives real depth to the song.

Essa versão com Peter Hook é fantástica...excelente..ele estava com a gota serena..

Outstanding 👏👏👏👏

I cant thank him enough for cranking out the #joydivision classics like he does. I get to hear them in the beautiful present!

It's just a miracle...as always when I hear this song

Brilliant remember those times again 👊

Saw mr hook in Whitby, absolutely amazing. Very emotional time too. RIP mr Curtis

Tremendous. Brilliant no-nonsense performance, lads. 👏

That is beautiful hooky ☺😘😘

woww his voice is tuned really well with this song..Great!

Hooky, living legend! Big fan from Brazil since 80´s (Joy Divison, New Order...) and counting!

God bless Ian Curtis whose memory lives on. Amen

Awesome! This is a special song!!!

Had the distinct pleasure of seeing hooky in Dallas may22, 2018 and it was a fantastic show, started off by playing all of New Orders Substance album, then they took a break of about 10 minutes then proceeded to play all of Joy Divisions substance album. After the show we loitered outside us and about 60 other fans and he took the time to sign anything and take as many pics as we wanted and just hung out and didn't act the least bit of a star but instead as a humble man who understands his lucky and talented stars and that without us fans he wouldn't be able to do what he loves. And for that I will always love and admire Peter Hook, he connects with every day people on multiple levels

remember he closed his set in Mexico City in 2023 with this song and blew my head off that I couldn't enjoy The Smashing Pumpkins afterwards

dont see new order doing this with that much energy

Thanks for bringing great memories sir Peter Hook x

Absolute MAGIC!

Bravo Bravo Beautiful don't give up, go go go go !

peter hook, thanks for all the years. you are a great example of what passion is for musician. i wish you can become producer and be a mentor and produce album for new young groups in manchester.

Beautiful

Perfect!!!!!!!!!

Love this version, Hooky you legend 🙌🏻

God, I hope Ian knows how many of us their music has touched. Especially decades after his passing. Joy Division has gotten me through some horrific times dealing with autoimmune diseases and not wanting to be here.

I like the way Peter says, "You know what I'm gonna pray for. A happy ending." (I can't stop thinking of Mrs Palmer and her five daughters when he says this.) Poor sod, he was flummoxed with that blokes answer so he had to think of something pretty fast onstage. Went to see him when he was in Syd 2019. Great concert and well put together with a full Orchestra. Brilliant, he is thinking outside the square.

This is great!!

beautiful choristers' background voices

Wow, Mal ne richtig geile interpretation des Liedes.......Daumen hoch

Best Cover of this song I've heard!

Never knew Hooky played at the Cathedral. Wish i was there

This is a kick ass version! Damn!

he sounds nick-cave-esque, quite enjoy it tbh

Love it, he's so cute with his addidas....so hooky

My inspiration

What a start. awesome

What a legend !

Necesito escucharla todo los días

This breaks my heart wish ian was still here 🖤

Oh Hooky my dear friend.... if Ians watching from a bove he would be laughing his head off...lots of love bro Kitt...

Love it

Great bloke. Great band.

Immortal song

Nice! Saludos desde Argentina

great version

I really like this cover, odd to see people criticizing Peters vocals in the comments, I thought his vocals were spot on and captured the feeling of the song, wtf do you want.. Bono murdering it again? When you're young and this song means the world to you and you are playing it in your bedroom singing along as loud as you can get away with, or when you're parents were out so you could play it as loud as the stereo would go, you would imagine yourself doing a Ian Curits impression singing this live. I feel this is what Peters doing here, but instead of pretending to be live and just singing along in the bedroom, he's actually doing it live. Good work Hooky.

Majestuosa interpretación

Não consigo imaginar algo mais belo...
