If only I could have seen them live, saw New Order twice which was great but to see Joy division. Sigh....

With cold steel odour on their bodies, made a move to connect
I could only stare in disbelief as the crowds all left.....
Classic Joy Division
Thanks for the upload had this first time around when it was released and we wore out the video!

Ian Curtis invented the Moonwalk

I would say God Bless Ian Curtis, but he would be blessing himself

I had such a crush on Ian in the late 70's. This performance was one of his very best and he rocked hard.
-
back then we called the dance the dying fly...
but I think it was a kind of spasmodic northern soul dancing.
Maybe someone with northern soul 'experience' can put me straight on that?

One of the best live performances of Ian.

があああああ!!

if people tossed stuff at them and ian started dancing it would be like the matrix

@CobaltNight Great comment!!....They only kill great music xD



Yknow, watching this video, the obvious comes to mind that Ian was so bizarre in his style of dance, and people always say that shite, but I'm here to defend him. It's more or less mesmerizing to watch that crap, and if you really pay attention you'll realize that he was just feeling the music when he went into spastics. Imagine the way you might react if you had such a great band backing yourself and then rethink your whole idea about the ian curtis epilepsy dance inside joke or whatever.
