joy division,the only mistake

[bowlandboy]

pure music,if you dont like it lump it

[slangshotstudios]

tendency just to take....

[33BottlesOnMyDesk]

this song is so deep

[Q3Cyrus]

The simplicity of the basslines and their effectiveness within Joy Division tracks inspired me to pick up a bass. Here I am a couple of decades later. Cheers Hooky !

FAQ about this song:

This song is an 'outtake' from the 'Unknown Pleasures' album sessions.

They decided not to include this song on the album.

[deathrockunion]

@derty2atYT i wonder why they chose to leave it off..though the album is perfect the way it is.

[LiveJoyDivision]

Lollipop stole this rift... FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU D:<

3 n'aiment pas! comment ne peuyt-on pas aimer ça? ah,si! quand on est habitué depuis la naissance à la soupe "politiquement correcte" proposée par les grandes maisons de disques et leurs groupes de merde préformatés et asseptisés!

[hammertoejoe]

Many of my faves are in STILL and WARSAW: The only Mistake, Something Must Break, Glass, Leaders of Men, The Kill... and from UNKNOWN P/CLOSER Wilderness, Twenty-Four Hour, Insight, New Dawn Fades... Komakino... but some of my strongest influence comes from Heart and Soul

[mangaspiked]

this song explores my mind

[guitar19904]

3 YEARS and such great art

[arnie61]

I must say my fav is New Dawn Fades,i don't know why but i seem to have a lot goin on in my head when i first heard the track silly isnt it,but there you go thats life i suppose..my best band of all time ......

[blocpartyband07]

[mojaroar]

about 15 !'m 46 this year.... what's wrong with that... tell me,,, were u born just an arsehole or do you have to get up reeeeaaalllyyy early to practice coz u r afully good at it...wanker.

[MissImproperio]

love JD ♥

[mojaroar]

I've been a JD fan since I saw them perform transmission and she's lost control on "something else" way back in the day. They are my favourite band of all time. Every song is a classic...

[TheOldEchoes]

@mojaroar So you were THIRTEEN when you saw them perform them songs? ANOTHER frign lard.Talk about mistakes - work it out..

[TheOldEchoes]

@mojaroar Sorry- you must have been NINE - fucking idiot.

[burtr]

I rate The Only Mistake high on the JD list. It's also the only song I've ever written a car off to.

[harrychalcraft]

Fuck Ian Curtis was depressed.

[TheOldEchoes]

@harrychalcraft Well, CAPTAIN OBVIOUS is here. Frign' LARD.

[maverickMAQUIAVILE]

para todos los fanaticos de esta gran banda no permitire que este album se termine con 2 canciones... el 2 de enero colgare mi primer single no me fallen acabemos con la basura comercial trivial por M M pasen la voz

everybody waiting the album complete for just 2 song wonderfull

my band is same style because i am influence about this but

need speech if you liked this band then i am sure that you will my band 2 january my first song on youtube i called trivial by M M

[TheRoseanne58]

Greatest music and voice ever - thank you for sharing this treasure!

[akira543]

It's glorious how such ominous and depressing music can actually uplift you. Bands like Joy Division speak to me on so many different level. Dont glorify the tragedy just the triumph that this band can to do so many people generations later...

[bilicana]

incredible!...as ian curtis it make us pass along an inhospitable and oppressive atmosphere in the song and at the same time thrill us!!! a few singers could got it.

and the solo final charles (of drums) its outbreathing!!!! awesome,there is no words....

[johnoXdamage]

is that a suicide note? or just a groceries list?

[missescookie]

Love this. Thanks for posting.

[slangshotstudios]

the only mistake, birth

could have made it before

[AttractedADA]

this is too good to my ears..

[beautydaddy]

Is there any such thing as 'ageless" modern music? if there is, J.D. must be it.

[ResidentPoo]

the chorus sends shivers down my spine every time - theres just such an ominous feel, an aura to it that no other band seems to be able to produce. r.i.p ian, you were the greatest musical genius that this world has ever seen, and probably ever will see.

[ZLUGGO]

Absolutely brilliant.

[ZLUGGO]

@zek262

Who cares about your insignificant drivel?

[ZLUGGO]

@zek262

You, obviously.

[K3nL13L]

these days... we love

[cobijaband]

ian wrote a part of my life

[MsSonic1972]

@cobijaband ian wrote my life

[cobijaband]

ian escribio parte de mi vida......

[tempesthunder]

the words speak a loud truth..

[deadAmandA1990]

Have you seen "Control" (2007)? It's about Ian Curtis and his band Joy Division. It's perfect! Just like this song...

[ResidentPoo]

@deadAmandA1990 Amazing film, I was on the verge of tears at the end titles...and then the fucking killers come on and completely kill the atmosphere. What a shit cover of shadowplay.

[guitar19904]

@ResidentPoo

LOL SO TRUE the killers song was to upity for the melancholic atmopshere. it just tuined it LOLs. but still a great film

[JOAMdude]

this track is amazing

[johnbyronkuhner]

The liner notes for Still (idiotic rock writing as usual) attack Hannett's production of this song. I think it's great - the bass put up front and everything else recessed.

[NinetiesYouth]

Always loved 0 2 3 5

[loopytaru]

theyre ahead of OUR time too..

sorry this is way more advanced then fitty cent

[intrepidvs]

unique music diverse and brilliant.

[foreverfree]

Sounds superb on Vinyl.

[darthartie]

lucky you :)

[intrepidvs]

i think they were way ahead for their times,what a unique style

[ZLUGGO]

I love these songs and this band!

[thimble288]

I'm pretty sure this is my favorite joy division song, but that's a tough call.

[SKIZINGDRUG]

This song is really big...its a pitty that its not far well mixed...sounds noisy sometimes..first seconds from the intro are amazing

[EmotionBleuPetrole]

amazing song, like any other JD's song...

[HuStLaHoVa750]

And the only mistake, led to rumours unfound,

Led to pressures unknown, different feelings and sounds,

Yeah, the only mistake, like I made once before,

Yeah, the only mistake, could have made it before.

[autohardy]

awsome....

[theodoros44]

there is music,and there is Joy division !!!

[karziflora]

Dark, deep & poignant. This is therapy 4 the soul.

[naivesincerity]

Fuck me their songs are so spooky.

[wilfrid55]

my wife just made the only mistake last month, now i'm a free man and i'm gonna cash in for half da house...

[JoeClipso]

fuck yea! fuck that bitch, you can find someone that sucks twice as hard as that whore!

[knownpleasures]

LMAO!!

[ps3sucksassballs]

oh modern culture

[veganshred]

if you listen closely, at around 0:27 there's a weird howling sound

these amazing nuances are what sets joy division a class apart

[JoeClipso]

howling? (WTF are you talkin about)

you mean "feedback"? right?

BTW whats up with the emo kids liking joy division, i never knew they had taste... shows how much i know

[Phuckaducker]

must be 'in' to listen to joy division

[JoeClipso]

wow, do you ever get out at all? or are you just really fucking high ;-)

who the fuck gives shit about a "in" crowd?!?

[Phuckaducker]

chill out mate, i'm only assuming. i'm not actually a part of any 'in' crowd myself, especially not the emo! also yes, i am high.

[tweedledumb]

The howling sound you're refering to, is a lift that was part of the recording studio. Martin recorded it & thought it sounded cool to use. Forget where i read that, but it's apparently true!

[Q3Cyrus]

The pitch shift on the hats is superb and innovative. This is one of my favourite Joy Division songs. Irrespective of what albumn it appears on.

[SKIZINGDRUG]

joy division sound like a full emotive orchesta playing... and I love how all their songs reach a huge emotive point near the end... got to catch that

[CloudesleyShovel]

like the shake of the dice at the beginning

[Paladinofboozlebub]

It's an amazing song... Hearing it brings me back to when I first heard Joy Division in '95 in the darkroom, printing pictures under the amber hue of the safe light... Joy Division Is... just incredibly powerful...

I know it can't be helped, but I really wish I could have been around when they were on the scene... Stoopid birth in 1977...

[JamezBaller]

"Still" is an underated album, in my opinion. This song is great, as is "Walked in Line", both found on "Still".

[tomsega]

Would be in my top 5 Joy Division songs.

Might me sacrilage for me to infer a criticism, here, but I think Closer would have been a superior album if this track and Transmission was on it.

[brokery999]

I haven't heard this in years. Thanks. One of the great bands.

[izabelabar]

These Days...

[the13thmoon]

Very underrated song

[citycas]

hideroad, the word is spelt their, you illiterate fool. I note the same mistake in the picture above.

[jmvahl]

I'm looking for the bass tab....

[theOBSIDIANhorse]

this is one of my favorite joy division songs...

[sor7en07]

Absolutely stellar bass playing in this track. Talk about a rhythm section!!!

[COUVELOMBARDA]

Joy Division 0wns everything... Ian youre missed, god damn you are!

[hideroad]

ive been listening to JD none stop since october and i come across a differnt one of there tunes every minute and eveyone of them are unbelevable and they were only a band for 3 yrs.greatest band of all time

[mclovett95]

@hideroad what are on about Justin Beiber shit is

[danielafilippini]

Stupenda song! Una tra le più belle anche se dei Joy Division mi piace tutto

[tomsega]

Sort of a 'forgotten' Joy Division track, as much as it'd make my top 5. Neither on the albums nor substance.

Stunningly good production.. absolutely stunning. Martin Hannett deserves as much credit as Ian. I mean it.

[contraplete]

it's on Still

[tomsega]

[SlowDown101]

Joy Division's best song? Honestly to me it depends on what mood I am in at the time. Joy Divisions songs are all my favorite songs I can't help it I love the band.

[suburbanreptile]

a great song in a catalogue of great songs. in fact, in my opinion, the best all time joy division song.

[chrthegreat]

Gotta love Joy Division
