New Order: In A Lonely Place @ Berlin 1981

New Order playing In A Lonely Place live in Berlin at the SO36 Club on May 27th, 1981.
The video and audio quality is not the greatest, but such were the camcorders at the time.

Caressing the marble and stone
Love that was special for one
The waste and the fever and hate
How I wish you were here with you now

Body that kills and hides
Matches that awful delight
Warm like a dog around your feet
How I wish you were here with you now

Hangman looks 'round as he waits
Gullet stretches tight as it breaks
Warm like a dog around your feet
How I wish you were here with you now

What's that instrument bernard's playing?

[VanishInFright]

It's a melodica.

I am 50 years old and I feel like I am suspended in time. I feel like I was still a 20. No other band made influence the way Warsaw/JD/New Order did on my brain/mind/. I will never forget ¨In A Lonely Place¨ when I heard it first time on the 12¨ incher I was transfixed. So powerful. And the lyrics of Ian made me respect life. Each day is a gift......I have nothing to prove to anyone. I was there while it was happening...¨Past is now part of my future. The present is well out of hand¨

Is it only me, but it seems that every time New Order performs this song, they try to avoid the word 'hangman' as much as possible, singing it more quiet than other lyrics.

[TaraClubKidz]

the lyric is body that curls in and hides

This was originally done by Joy Division. New Order did it as a tribute to Ian not long after he passed. Amazing song, gives me goosebumps every time...the drums, the lyrics, the feeling...Incredible!!!
