Whoever said New Order were a singles band? Bollocks.
Bernard Sumner - when you get NO together again without Hook´s whiningly tedious bass droning on, howzabout you start using the old rattling synths again like in the mid 80s, rather than ´rocking out´cos it´s just not as good.
I love this so much,as Bernard said in Dublin SFX,'86,your country is a fuckin awful place,if i lived here...,I'll never hold that again't you Bernard.

Is Hooky out of tune?! this video is hard to watch. I thought they were much more talented than this. It's like watching beginners practicing in the garage. SO LAME :( Guess it was all the "studio magic"... they are just a shadow of Joy Division.
I can remember the excitement of seeing New Order on TV that very hot day in 1984. They were a favourite band and watching them live was fantastic but also I could see there was a great new order lp coming and indeed Lowlife did not let anyone down.
@ManilaSyndicate REALLY? Since when does dressing have to do anything with the artist's musical experience? I would have thought some people don't feel the need of wearing sparkling outfits to stand out more as long as their music is all right.
I know of people like 'The Smiths' who didn't feel the need to wear sparkly dresses or show off their clothes. The same applies to New Order, and that made me admire them more because they didn't feel the need to show off like that.
@ManilaSyndicate no way man. this style fucking rocked! i bet you look like a frumpy househusband now and your wife isn't wearing any pants. she was hot!
In answer to a previous post, no way was any of this shown during Live Aid!!!
It was part of one of the "Whistle Test" marathon shows, I vividly remember watching this New Order session during the afternoon and taping it from the radio at the same time. I can't get my head around it being 25 years ago!?!!!
I have read all the critisism about New Order being out of time and all that stuff... These people miss the point of New Order and the reason why they became so big and copied all over the world..
They developed slowly, they never did what a major record label wanted them to do and for that reason we will be searching in 50 years time for another band to match their origanal idea's..
It was a long hot summer and the ABH was the same. The story was that New Order were late arriving and had driven a long way to be there ( like the first line ). Being late for a live gig at the beeb would have been bad.
I watched this on my bed drinking and enjoyed the songs but the performance was poor. Nice to hear a few from Low Life before it was released in 1985.
this honestly sounds like my high school band at practice. Not that I'm any better of a musician, now, but seriously, these guys were touring and making a lot of money to do this. That is admirable.
wow they sound horrible live, better stay in the studio where you can re-record and edit everything over and over because when put on the spot they sound pretty spotty. Are these guys tone deaf everything is out of tune and off beat! I would have been pretty embarrassed to have made this in BBC studios. Still love New Order because they try so damn hard to keep it together while the whole track sounds like a derailing train that's about to fly off the tracks
Too bad I didn't know about these guys back when I was in high school. I could have been the only one on campus who knew who they were, and maybe some would have thought I was "cool" because of that. But, alas, I was like all my fellow schoolmate schumcks who had no idea they even existed.
This was done right in the middle of their best ever tour which started in Sunderland and ended at Heaven in London. Those were the days. It was one crazy few weeks for us lunatics who followed them everywhere in those days!
They had wanted to play other tracks but due to technical problems they could not. Bernard was not in the best of moods even before they started, and you could say it got progressively worse as the performance went on!

Favorite song from Low Life. Well maybe tied with Sunrise. Really like the outro to this song. So brilliant. The flip side to Perfect Kiss.

While it looks similar, bracelets with the name Lance Armstrong were non-existent in 1984.
So, while yellow bracelets may have existed, remember that the Lance Armstrong thing was recent.
