I've been a fan of JD a lot longer than U2 and I'd just like to say fuck you to the fans who think JD is some sacred cow. Just look how the legacy has been shat on by far more inferior artists, look at it this way, Bono's favourite band is JD if not one of his faves, and if you were in his position wouldn't you want to do the same thing? Don't be elitist wanker's over something that belongs to everyone.

I love how most people have a mindset of : "Right, I'm NOT going to like U2 anymore", and then they come out with an absolutely AMAZING song, it just makes them go "Awwww shit..."

Every band who covers a song from another band shows a kind of respect with this. I`m a great fan of JD, New Order, Tears for Fears and so on. I like the TFF Version of Radioheads`Creep.

I'm not a fan of U2, just find them boring, I am however a massive JD fan. As people have said earlier. Bono is just as much a fan of Ian Curtis and JD as anyone else. I like the fact that he does covers of it. Shows that JD have been influential to one of the most famous bands in the last 30 years.

Bono tried too hard....

@thlap Yikes! From what I see here, you doth protest too much... I think (?) the point is U2, Joy Division AND New Order are great bands

@thlap it is true but people are too dumb to understand it :P

@woodyfurball accept that it's a matter of taste and not a matter of what you think
secondly, yeah U2 sounds better than Joy D but it's still a matter of taste and Joy D didn't really want it to sound that good
they were punk musicians and therefor they focused more on the energy in the show
btw i don't think they had nearly the same amount of money as U2 have so i don't they could effort it
What is it with Joy Division fans...they get soo fucking angry. U2 were fans of Joy Division and worked with Hannet. Just showing a little respect. Joy Division could have had all of this...mind you if they did it would of been very fucking depressing! Joy Division fans have to relax a bit!

stop your crying They have been doing this since 86. Who are u to say what Bono and u2 stand for. They show respect by doing these covers. Ian is just as much a hero for Bono as he is for u. You will have to share.
