Joy Division- "She's Lost Control

[maiuslover]

I LOVE YOU IAN <3 R.I.P.

[ItsJustAlison]

I think i'm in love.

[elfholm]

Thankyou jd. Thankyou Ian. Your music, your lyrics spoke to me like no others ever has. Rip mate.

[Florcitax]

i love ian's dancing he is just feeling it without thinking ok lets make somethig catchy

[KingYazuyaTheThird]

Stephen Morris' machine-like drumming is amazing, and so are both guitars; they repeat the same thing over and over but never get tired and never lose the rhythm. Nowadays no band can produce such a constant ongoing sound like that, they use bloody computers and synchronisers for for anything that's too difficult to play manually...

R.I.P Ian and well done Joy Division for all the great work you've brought into this world.

[robertschelly]

I tell you, no one could pull off those kind of moves unless they were utterly sincere; and Ian ultimately demonstrated he was.

[snakevids]

what a riff

[mojoman541]

@snakevids dam man so right, as soon as that guitar comes in, just cant help nodding...fantastic song

[agameofhearts]

it amazes me how Ian is dancing around like a lunatic yet the crowd at the front are just...stood there, I think I would have felt the need to dance like that myself...

[noneisall69]

yeah, all video's back then are like that. Just look a concerts of Zeppelin, Sabbath, the Stones, Joy Division, people didn't figure they could dance at concerts until sometime in the 80's

[MikeyMasked]

he has epilepsy.

[Mattfletch001]

his dancing is amazing great band

[dragoon84]

I wonder if that crowd understood just how fucking privileged they were to be watching Joy Division live, in that time, in that place.

Lucky bastards.

[PostcardKittenMeow]

I used to go and see JD before + after this show - yep we knew they were a bit special...

[julieswahn]

When was this video made? He's amazing.. the band is as a whole, of course, though naturally he is a stand-out for his uniqueness.

[PostcardKittenMeow]

1979, BBC, 'Something Else' - The Jam were on the same show ... just before The Buzzcocks tour and then the album Closer, followed by the pretty rapid decline of IC on 18th, May, 1980

[julieswahn]

Ah, thanks. It's so odd because I was and am a fan of The Jam and Buzzcocks back then but never heard anything from Joy Division. Could have been the fact I was living in Texas maybe :)

@dragon n84 dont think so! they look as if they could t have been waiting for a bus

societies children all the way!

[BMGStammer]

@dragoon84 in the film "24 hours party people" rob gretton's first line (played by paddy condislne) was "it doesn't want to come back, it wants to go away so it can becoem a legend." the people who were at this performance may not have cared then, but im 100% sure they will never forget it now

[doctorwho43]

@dragoon84 my old tutor was in that crowd

[kalisteboat]

Shamanic trance ! No cinema here ... authentic diving in madness !

[jerilyn1984]

damn he felt the music at that point

[desasterz]

love the way the guitar sounds like a toy! uneek!

[guitar19904]

wtf toy?bernard rocks my world

[kusraback]

30 yrs after and JD's music is so original, unique and fucking amazing. Just fucking amazing, no other band sounds like it.

[marekhhh]
