  • As everything made by new order that's a must

    

  • "Caught at a bad time so why don't you piss off"

    Just a classic line.

  • I play this in my car everytime I drive off to see my favorite stripper, a hot redhead named Athena. Oh, yea, I also do the Bronson strut (when he walks out of prison) as I walk into the strip club.

  • BRONSON :D

  • Kraftwerk runs in the veins of this song

  • Thumbs up if Winding Refn sent you here.

  • THE SONG.

  • Summer of '83 and finally a massively cool band had made it to the top of the charts, a band that came from our corner of the world, a band that hated Thatcherism and shiny suited crapitalism. Loved it then, still love it now.

  • @Happysundaze Marry me.

  • Another song brought to me thanks to the movie Bronson :)

  • i bought this album when it came out in 83 along with the b boys cookie puss thought it was lame then grew to love it then lost it.

  • the reason poeple listened to this album in the dark is cuz there were no cell phones or good vid games but it brought you there

  • @CHELSEA9636 Do your parents know you're a whore?

  • I was 18 it was Sept '83 pissing it down just come off a bit worse in a scrap in town. Wet hair and bloody mouth laying in bed in the dark with Ruth in my bedsit listening to this on vinyl sobbing on her breasts .............

  • @ChadHesdon im sure ruth is getting a good shagging as we speak, so dont worry be happy , mmmm

  • @Proxylfc Nah she ain't, I saw her down the Co op the other day and she was wearing a nun's habit. Strangely enough, looking back sex with Ruth was always a religious experience especially when we did in the graveyard.

  • @ChadHesdon I remember hearing this when I was a sperm cell in my Dad's right testicle. Me and the boys would invite the boys from the left one over for a party. Fond memories.

  • @jockle1986 Interesting, I had a spell in Iraq '84 to '86. So I can say" I was listening to this in Bahgdad when you were in your Dad's bag"!

  • @CHELSEA9636 Funny you should say that... any cultured individual who knows shit about music will have heard of New Order. They're pretty famous.

  • Peter Saville... Possibly the most overrated person ever...

  • @3LARI without wishing to bitch, that is a very fair comment, and he tried, unsuccessfully I might add, to steal my girlfriend. She went off with someone considerably richer than me anyway, but it was not Peter Saville...thank the Lord.

  • Gay Bar!! Electric six!! wake up Oasis fans!!

  • I love a bit of Oasis, but the depth and breadth of New Orders emotional, spiritual meanings and musical ambiance are greater than any gobshite ego the Gallaghers could throw about. "we see things they'll never see!" ha! how Ironic......I need a beer and a fag....and some rope...

  • "You caught me at a bad time, so why don't you piss off!" Brilliant!

  • @CHELSEA9636

    just people havent heard of new order doesnt make them rubbish

  • I love new order...... Best band... Bernie i luv ya!!!  Only just a girl xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  • oh yes!!!!!

  • @CHELSEA9636 Wow, the comment you made really shows your ignorance. New Order has been one of the most influential bands that rock, pop, and electronic music has ever seen. Oasis has even cited New Order as being a huge influence on them and their music. Step outside your small minded little world and check it out. You just might become amazed also...

  • :-| Very Funny Boys :-) ... :-|

  • @ResetAvistar It's been a pleasure.

  • Lol, Kraftwerk meets Vangelis.

  • The UK does music best, Thats just my view, New order,Depeche mode,Pink floyd,the beatles,the Who, The stones, Zepplin, Genesis, Dire straits, the list goes on, The yanks have there gems Like Elvis, Dylan Buddy Holly and a few others, The UK is still king and always will be.

  • ice cool song

  • sounds like kraftwerk

  • enjoy the tune - a beautiful sound. Us 40 somethings are blessed to have been accompanied on the journey for the last 30 years by this brilliant group. Some skill to turn a blank sheet of paper in to this song.

  • iceybleu sent me here. Album artwork looks like Craft Spells 2011 LP Idle Labor

  • Silence...

  • @CHELSEA9636 maybe you had never heard of new order but they've been very popular for a very long time

  • 2 people can't stand silence.

    New Order RULES :D

  • @CHELSEA9636 PS Oasis is terrible.

  • @CHELSEA9636 HAHAHAHA WHAT?!?!?! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA That's the funniest thing I've ever heard.

  • i miss joy division.

  • what the fuck are you talking about dick ? noel fucking gallagher has only ever written one song every one sounds the fucking same !

    LAMEDICK

  • Always thought this would sound even better if played in a huge church,on a huge synthed church organ....atmospheric.

  • this and Temptation are the best New Order songs... love them

  • Comment removed

  • Bronson.

  • Anthemmic and oh so proper! New Order is simply amazing afer all these years!

  • I first heard this in 1987, my son had in on tape and we were in Tunisia and he asked the coach driver to play it. Where had I been? He loved it and converted me from the first playing. I started listening to more of Matthew's music from then on in I think. We started to exchange views and I listened more. How I long for those days. To quote Joni Mitchell from Big Yellow Taxi, "you don't know what you had till its gone".... how true!

  • Comment removed

  • I think this song works very effectively in the soundtrack to "Bronson", i.e. the part where Bronson is released from prison and strides slightly self consciously towards his parents. It's vaguely surreally funny and an ingenious choice of music for that scene.

  • Just fucking yummy, Kraftwerk,Joy division/New order then Depeche mode in that order and lets not forget omd everybody else na.

  • @Justdisco2

    Gina XXXXXXXXXX

  • @stadtrade102 Gina you look great. LOL

  • such a lush and lovely song...

  • Was the synth part in this ever sampled in another song? It seems so familiar...but then again, I could have just heard this at a young age and forgotten it was New Order until now.

  • Amazing stuff.

  • Para it is possible to like Oasis and New Order, but as you say one's an infatuation and the other is a lifelong love. Where Oasis gave us glorious bombast New Order gave us timeless, majestic mindscapes, a new way of seeing things. New Order are surely one of the top five British bands of all time, Oasis struggle to make the top 30.

  • bronson

    

  • a comb. very funny boys

  • Haunting,moving song,lovely.

  • @garcondor you said it best

  • I love Kraftwerk.

  • @sodomye ..this is sooooo kraftwerk

  • I love the part that swells in at 4 minutes. Gorgeous.

  • i like oasis...

  • so cool, simple, sporty and amazing is this composition

  • Loved JD and NO growing up... For some reason this one always resonated with me... Bernard wasn't Ian as a vocalist, but he always connected....

  • "so why don't you piss off" great! all the attitude of punk but much more realistic and believable.

  • What I miss about Walkman's are the way that you could hold down the rewind and then by listening to changes in the motor's sound, guess when a well-worn cassette had returned to the start of your favorite song. There was a rise in the pitch of the motor as the tape spooled back past the right place.

  • Inspirational! Always loved this song without doubt best song on Power,Corruption and Lies.

  • best song on the album by far

  • I think that Ian´s lyrics were more spoken from his heart and Bernards lyric is not to take serious, its just mainly stuff which has just come to his mind.

  • new order's atmosphere

  • What I miss most about Joy Division, as distinct from New Order, is the genius of the poetry of the lyrics. Not that I wish to buy into the debate, such comparisons of art and artists being more by way of corruption toward empowerment that belies art than an art in themselves.

  • @Lieu3C4 i usually listen to JD first then NO to get my spirits back up again.

  • @Lieu3C4 Joy Division and New Order are both incredible... and you are putting way too much thought into this.

  • I love New Order but miss the sound of Ian's voice when they were Joy Division.

  • Oh man. This song. This album.

  • wonderful song. reminds me of a simpler time in my life. these guys were so great! i saw them at Jones Beach with Echo and Jean loves Jezabel.

  • MTV didn't know shit back then & look at it NOW it should of been swallowed or flushed right out the door. Now go and play some Machines Of Loving Grace You Weirdo!!

  • The movie "BRONSON" brought me here. lol...I love New Order..and i love the music selection for "BRONSON"

  • This was ALWAYS my favourite track on this album... especially "Why don't you piss off" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

  • Quiker, quiker, quiker, quiker, FUCK OFF, SIT DOWN!

  • i never notice the disintegration similarities,but have you noticed the ending guitar in LEAVE ME ALONE was borrowed by the Edge on the intro to Pride(in the name of love)

  • Joy Division frontman Ian Curtis was a fan of Kraftwerk, and showed his colleagues records that would influence both groups. New Order's song "Your Silent Face" has some similarities with "Europe Endless", the first song on Trans-Europe Express

  • amazing how it evolves into something so epic.

  • The Cure's "Disintegration"... is this song an influence?

  • @TheDoctor394 I never thought about that but it actually could be :)

  • @8scatterbrain8 It just struck me that it could be.

  • @TheDoctor394 disintegration came out about 3 years after this.

  • @twox2nasty4u Six years. :-) The Cure did eventually move in a New Order direction as their career went on, like with such songs as "In Between Days". But this song in particular just sounds like something that could have come off "Disintegration".

  • @twox2nasty4u 6 years after PCL actually

  • @twox2nasty4u around 6 years after PCL actually

  • @twox2nasty4u '89 for disintegration, '83 for power corruption and lies. i'll let you revisit the math ;) sadly i never did get to see NO live, but i did catch the cure on the disintegration tour with the pixies and love and rockets. i think shelleyan orphan opened.

  • Can you get any more epic than this

  • @lunarbluesmusic You really can't.

  • @805JohnTheRevalator, that's what i thought

  • All the songs on this album are pleasantly hypnotic.

  • One of their best, but not outside of the circle of knowledge.

  • one of my NO's favs! quality!

  • An eternal Classic to me from the 1st time i heard it. When I spun this track @

    The Twilight Zone Import Vinyl > Highs smooth hairs on the back of the neck bass that warmed your soul controlling lights to audio / and manually perfect to the feeling of the song . Memories and vibes from the dance floor to this track still remain after all these years.

  • Wonderful.

  • I here because of BRONSON!

  • this song is pure poetry. seem there's a light that never goes out... uh? in the first vocals... Oasis fucking losers, new order better than an hamburger.

  • 2 ppl who clicked dislike. need a good slap. thnx for uploadin. some memories for me in this tune :)))))))

  • timeless..........i remember mtv playing this.......120 minutes with paul king.....14 channels back in the day.....still this is new order really making their stamp....pushing away from joy divison.........who were sooooo good.....but new order were the next gen.......and they were mint live and made such great tunes!........................­...................x70

  • oasis is dope

  • This song seeps into you. Unlike those songs that hit you in the chest like rusty roofing nails, this one creeps up alongside you and slips up your pant leg and before you know it you're dancing. Shit, I love this song!

  • When i saw them in 89 at the universal amphiteater in Los Angeles they reversed the chorus. Have it on bootleg vinyl from that night too. priceless!

  • Ralf Hutter aparrently asked how they made the thump in Bblue Monday- on being offered the sample he responded (think cod German accent) "NEIN!!! I am only interested in the PROCESS". It was more than just inspiration, it was dialogue....

  • Kraftwerk heavily inspired Ian Curtis, leading Joy Division and New Order to have songs frequently sounding like this. Funny how one of my favorite bands is closely bonded with another favorite (I'm a bigger fan of Joy Division than New Order personally).

  • Haven't heard this song in years until it came up on Pandora. soooo cool to reconnect with it. Dreamy and deep.

  • nice to hear on this miserable night

  • music from the head, the heart, the sould and the gut

    marvellous

    we will never hear the like again

  • Great ...just great....

    movemnet...harmony

  • listening to it for 20 years. still a masterpiece.

  • Pretty awesome when this plays during Bronson.

  • This song is in my top100 of all time songs.

  • I can hear Ian knocking on the door, let him in...............

    A Ravel symphony relocated to 1980's Salford.

  • their loviest album after the first thank you for posting 

  • ...my personal fafourite on this vynil...

  • Bronson led me here.

  • @DVROFFMAN lol ah have you been too petition.com ? do it 4 charlie!! cheers mate!

  • Did The Rules of Attraction lead anyone here?

  • yes ahhh synth nightmare

  • no we are not old just experienced and clever

  • Oh, Please, how dare you put Oasis on par with New Order? Oasis was a fad and one that sucked balls. New Orders endures.

  • @ParisSpleen74 I like Oasis and New Order. Oasis had a great album.

  • @ParisSpleen74 i love how easily those who just don't get it make it obvious for all to see. ;)

  • @ParisSpleen74 Preach on! Oh, yeah!

  • @ParisSpleen74 Exactly, Oasis are trite bullshit pedlars! 

  • @ParisSpleen74

    New Order, not New Orders.

  • who else could make telling someone to piss off sound so pretty?

  • you've caught me at a bad time, so why don't you ...

    XD XD

  • sounds like the early kraftwerk

    oh god how i love nnew order

  • @ffm20zaheri actually...check out Wikipedia statement for Kraftwerk....mention of New Order directly influenced by Kraftwerk...listen to the similarities in Kraftwerk song "Europe Endless"

  • @jackwilson9000

    I don't see anyone could deny the Kraftwerk influence. Not knocking New Order at all, but the influence is staring us in the face.

  • dreat band..lovely song....

  • bronson:)

  • take 1 part "Joy Division" and 1 part "Kraftwerk" and voila! you have instant masterpiece!

  • @iamtahoe Great observation.

  • ....fuckin mother fuckin bravo.......

  • i remember when mtv used to play stuff like this. honestly

  • @millbrook79

    me too...we're old now, apparently :)

  • @millbrook79 yeah i remember when mtv was cool too

  • @millbrook79 LOL! Everyone says that but I've never seen a single music video on MTV. Is everyone dreaming?

  • @millbrook79

    i remember when mtv played music videos

  • this is the mozart and beethoven of the 20th century

  • just had to comment on this song its a masterpiece.

  • Fucking jolly good show!

  • this just blew my fucking mind

  • The orchestra that Mr Sumner makes on all the records with the bass as a rhythm really makes New Order. There really should be a greatest hits of all the songs they made like this. Beautiful.

  • bronson slapping time!

  • Trans Europe Express

  • this track is simply great....any new order fan/joy division fan has to understand that this track really defines the magic sounds that came out of the northwest in the 80s!

    soon to be followed by the stone roses,happy mondays,and oasis!but without them we would not have the kind of music that we take for granted!and lets not forget the wedding preasants george best album hey!mint as

  • awesome.......................­..........

  • I was so taken with Age of Consent & Leave me alone when I got this album, that I forgot about this song. Great New Order song

  • One of those songs you know you like, but have completely forgotten. Thank you Radio Paradise.

  • Nice ,nice people don't get fresh,I slap you ,you like,I like.Thanks this very nice like Maria Bamford.

  • just think of all the best things youve ever done or seen, sit back and think of them all again.

  • A track for eternity!

  • Am I the only one who believes that this is a bit influenced by Kraftwerk? :)

  • @PSBelectronica

    I think the bit right at the start which lasts from 0:00-0:17 is influenced by the start of Franz Schubert by Kraftwerk.

    Whatever the case, New Order have always acknowledged that Kraftwerk were a massive influence on them.

    They were an influence on a hell of a lot of bands - they're arguably one of the most influential ever I think.

  • @nim7rod Yeah,right :)

  • @PSBelectronica Sounds more like Joy Division with pretty bells on.
