LOVE this performance. Ah, my heart aches as I would have loved to hear Ian’s powerful baritone on this tune after the new wave glory of “Love will tear us apart” - but Bernard stepped in and the rest is amazing history!
People need to understand that this is one of the most important songs of all time if you ever would have said that that was going to be the outcome of this song you would have been laughed out of the building but the fact is this song right here is beyond important
It's also perhaps the wildest band transformation of all time. Watch these guys perform on some of Joy Division's earliest TV broadcasts and it's hard to believe the main players in New Order are the same guys (minus Ian, of course).
I wonder how things so changed. Watching this video is one of the proofs of how we live in a tasteless time in the world of today ! I cannot thank you enough for sharing this video.
It’s still the top selling 12” single of all time - saved Factory records (for a few years anyway)…I always wish Ian had lived to sing it but it’s still an absolute work of art!
Toda vez que eu escuto parece ser da primeira vez ... e me emociona e me dá vontade de chorar essa música tem esse poder de me fazer sentir assim.... Agradeço todos os dias por existir essa banda é chamada New order ....
Energia pura che già quella lunga musica iniziale ti trasmette e poi c'è la grande sorpresa di una bellissima canzone e naturalmente anche di un bravissimo cantante
@@admi908 a peccato perché a sentirlo così effettivamente si capisce che è un brano nato come singolo però successivamente secondo me si poteva ripristinare in qualche album. Cmq non so se posso farti una richiesta mi piacerebbe qualche live di Battiato in voglio vederti danzare. Naturalmente solo se puoi e anche se vuoi
Great band.... their use of what sounds like Gregorian Chants is amazing.....Gen Zers have no idea how great ''80s music was, but it will endure. The Killers are definitely the best nouveau-80s band out there. The piano and drumwork in this song is so good.
Music is AGELESS, i.e. music has nothing to do with age. I, myself, am 100 years old, and still "literally" living in the glorious sounds of the immortal 1980s !!!
At university my flatmate learned how to rig the land line phone to play this song whenever the phone rang. We ended up never answering the phone so he never found out his sister was pregnant for 18 months
This is actually a good live version. I wonder if this was before or after the ill-fated TOTP live performance? Also, Bernard still laughs during the song, I'm wondering if there's a reason for that?
