It's the best song ever.

This is the theme song that we chose for Madai Kings

I first heard this song on vinyl many years ago and it moved me, now it has more meaning to me than ever .

This recording show exactly why Joy Division was so very upset about the production sound of their recorded albums. It took their "edge" out, softened, and made the sound much more ethereal. Here you can see the power they had live.

[GoldIsFreedom]

This has power and pathos - enjoyable and impressive.

[LondonDada]

Ian was tall.. in every sense.

[bripable]

wow

[esmilner3]

bouncy... presages New Order perhaps? A different side of JD or Ian Curtis? Maybe he wasn't always such a downer? (don't get me wrong, I love the melancholy, but it's different.)
