I remember I was on the dance floor with my favorite girl - I loved her so much, we never came together... 💔 When I hear this 12inch today I'm in another world - on the dance floor with her for 12 minutes...
Who says so? It is as "synth" as (or less than) I Feel Love, the latter being of universal importance to music, this one here is the most overrated by internet/youtube song ever.
@@jafetrodriguez6446 , Lol ! You called it ! I almost brought that up ! We would carry over to Tijuana at around 3am ( 15 minutes away ) and go clubbing, more drinking, and eating ! Thank you for your comment !
This track was way ahead of its time back then. So far ahead of its time that it almost seems like the remixes that were made only aspired to be comparable to the real thing at best. This is a masterpiece of musical creativity. Hell Yeah!

ALL TRACKS are way ahead of their time - whenever I play-with (operative word = WITH = play-with) any music - as I do NOT play it the way countless others have followed along the blind commercial system - of playing a two channel stereo system by way of ONE CHANNEL - on the left-hand side & ONE CHANNEL on the right-hand side?

Why ? Because then I not only get the old-school (original) MONO SOUND of summated R+L channels, at the TOP Of the speaker tower stack - but I get a completely unheard HIDDEN track - that plays near the floor - whilst the summated SUB-WOOFER is summated between the normal MONO and the OTHER 90 degrees out-of-phase MONO - being the one I get out of the hidden content within any stereo recording (from the rear of studio / rear stage effects) - which when combined in full noise - actively give me a LOT MORE audio content - than you will ever get - playing forwards OR backwards any of your music - whether in direct analogue players - or from any digitized "virtual" sound delayed frontal system of "front surround only".

New Order "Blue Monday", Depeche Mode "Get the Balance Right", B-Movie "Nowhere Girl" and Trans-X "Linving on Video" 12" vinyl are masterpiece. Also, Depeche Mode "Shake the Disease" They were so far ahead of their time... listening to the 12" singles which are extended version in today's time and you'll think its a remix.
Nina Eikenberg I have that 12 in. version...... I bought 3 vinyls when I was in Junior high school... I have never played them, they're still sealed. I consider them a treasure :)
It's silly to ask trivia questions on the internet, but who knows (or remembers) who these guys were before New Order, and what happened that caused the change?
I bought the 12" when it very first came out....wore it out literally....and bought another. I was a teen and this Tune was the best thing to ever hit my ears and i still love it now, and forever. ❤
back when night clubs were night clubs! the smoke the lasers mirrors all over the place. there was a special connection made on the dance floor. 🥺😘😁💯👍🏼
Me and my mates in hull North England did 100s of mushrooms to this in mid 80s, it grow everywhere, what can I say, quality times, also human league unlimited orchestra. Wow
I was sitting in a lucky seat at an MLB game in the 80s and I won a box of records. Inside the box of records was this New Order album Substance 1987. I still have it somewhere.
I bought it back in 1983, small record shop, called "Music Man" in Bruges Belgium. Those were the days. The "Maxi single" is next to me here, kinda proud.
Like all perfect songs, they over played it on the radio, I remember... took me until today to revisit it! Brings back so many fun times, back when I was young and stoopid.
Holly dam..this is timeless sort of electronic / dance music... legendary tune !! dance music would not be what is today without it ,ahead of its time 80s the best
I never bought it in 83 but bought it many times over since then… but found the original 1983 die cut version in a record shop today for £2.00, it came home with me ❤
When this came out I was a 11 year old trying to bust some moves now I'm 44 year old still trying to bust some moves - blue monday has not aged apart from me xxx
Saturday night 2am a loud party in the flat under mine. Grabbed my 2 Speakers face side down and gave Blue Monday a blast. 10 minutes later... Silence!
Holly dam..this is timeless sort of electronic / dance music... Today is 1-26-15 this is blue Monday. I play this version every blue Monday of the year since 1983 Substance is vastly underrated, one of the all time best albums.
Bass test wow!! Sherwood 4109 receiver 8 Cerwin Vega earthquakes 15-in woofers in the cabinets Only 40 on the volume pod equalizer and mixer with preamps installed on the receiver makes this thing sound like a thousand watts per channel power amplifier totally awesome with this song the window shake the walls move and the highs cracked eardrums

This 12" single was at the time and after the biggest ever selling 12" mainly to the night clubs playing it and popular demand. I wonder if it is still? Way ahead of it's time A timeless classic
This is my favourite rendition of the song. Love how minimalistic this first version was, but still incredibly good and catchy. The 88 version's got too much sound effects for my taste.
Back as a spotty teenager, smothered in 'Blue Stratos' aftershave, dressed in the 'club gear' giving it some in a smokey, grotty night club!. 🤣 Still have my original 12 inch of this in a plastic cover. Played once and 'taped'.... If you know you know that last bit!. 🤣
Jan 21, 2019 #BlueMonday A good opportunity to say that the original version (the one we're listening to...) is still way better than all the Remixes done for years now (incl. New Order's ones). And God knows how much I love Remixes and other Reworked versions... When this 12" has been released, I played it for all my friends and people I knew; except my best friend, they all told me I had to be insane to listen to this weird electro sh!t 🤣 Today, most of them say they always loved this title (and group)... smfh RIP Ian Curtis 💫
Yes, I have the original Floppy-Disk shaped 12 inch. My copy came with a black inner sleeve instead of silver. I bought a second one with the silver inner sleeve. Yes, The Beach (b side) is as good as Blue Monday...
J'ai acheté mon exemplaire (12inch) lors d'une excursion scolaire en Hollande, un disquaire le passait et la porte était ouverte... Je suis entré et ai dit :" CA, j'en veux un ! 🥰"

41 years in rotation !!! Sound fresh like 1983
It didn't need messing with. I only knew this version in the 1980's. This is and always will be the best version.
With you on that....I bought the 12" twice when it first came out, blew me away and still love it.
@@1WillowMoon agreed. still a fantastic tune 40 years on
Always hated the 88 version, stopped watching MTV cos they always played that version
40 years old today & sounds as great as it did in 1983.
"sounds as great..." No it don't
Uh, I'm 50, so I was 10 in '83 and I don't remember this song from back then, so no way did you.
The tune is 40 years old, not me lol. I'm 54, so was 14 and did remember it very well 👍
still makes air move on big speakers at the good parties

Too damned right it is!!!!

I actually can relate--somebody on a long-gone radio station stated something along that line. Think back in 1993.

@@krasteff Stop talking out your arse you massive ponce
this makes me feel young and old all at the same time
Still remember..I was a young teenager on the school trip bus...one of the kids started playing this track...all jaws dropped...just bliss
When this was played at clubs in the 80's it was epic. Best of times.
How lucky we were to experience that !!! The 80's ! Thank God for the 80's ! The Universe had enough disco, and it was time to move forward . . .
What's all that white stuff on the counter top?

As soon as you hear that first few seconds of that bass drum it was dance time!
When someone ask me how 80s music is, I simply show this to them
Amazing, it's amazing
The Birth of Techno! New Order; Pioneers
Yesss
This track was way ahead of its time back then. So far ahead of its time that it almost seems like the remixes that were made only aspired to be comparable to the real thing at best. This is a masterpiece of musical creativity. Hell Yeah!
Joy division and new order where well ahead of the times and so influential
However - not only did they "do" this tune - but on the flipside of their extended vinyl LP .. re {quote] New Order - Blue Monday (Full 12-Inch EP) [1983] [unquote]
THEY PHYSICALLY REVERSED THE SONG
Thus the flipside of the 12" plays the other way & thus plays this exact song = sdrawkcaB..
It's title HAD to be different - so they called it "THE BEACH" !!!!!!
OBVIOUSLY THIS SONG IS ALL ABOUT THE BEACH ANYWAY - thus easily plays in reverse
Compare the two versions and the "reversed" flipside track - pre-echoes itself, because when played in reverse - anything that gets "played" on the original side that delays any echoes - these echoes now precede the tune (played in reverse) - hence it's got "altered" singing digitized inverted vocals in it too ... and all other echoes PLAY BEFORE THE SOUND - as they now precede the active signal that created them..

This is for my grandpa Joe he said it sounded urgent.he liked it.I miss him.
Substance is vastly underrated, one of the all time best albums.
Played to death 👍☺️
I just love it, why is underrated?

I'd forgotten about B-Movie. Thanks.
I'd also put Relax the "New York" mix on there
It's still THE DADDY after all these years. Incredible piece of work.
1983 version by far the best love it
Always been and forever will be the best.
It's the one I grew up with. Wasn't there a remix called "The Beach", or is this it?
There was a version named "The beach", it was on the B side of the 12 inch single. It was a brilliant remix of a brilliant song.
Nina Eikenberg I have that 12 in. version...... I bought 3 vinyls when I was in Junior high school... I have never played them, they're still sealed. I consider them a treasure :)

Fresh every single listen - and I was here from the start.
i can't believe i gave this away...what a dork!
Indeed!
If you look in a charity shop you might find a copy, still loads of deluded people throwing away the best part of their lives, fact
I did too 😢
I bought the 12" when it very first came out....wore it out literally....and bought another. I was a teen and this Tune was the best thing to ever hit my ears and i still love it now, and forever. ❤

My all time favorite song 4ever.
du sagst es,mcpot77...war einer der besten maxi's aus den 80's...waren immer super altstadt.besuche...geile mucke super spass
This song will last forever
Deep synth-bass is the sound of the 80’s ❤️👈🇬🇧
91X / nevers get old this song.. just amazing
One of the rare examples of a band going forward after losing its front man. Manzanarek and May tried, but obviously didn't succeed.
Manzarek... )
That's because they didn't want to change things up, they wanted to continue with the formula but forgot it was missing a piece
They should have created a new band from the ashes..
Always a blessing this and always gives you verve!!!!
Timeless classic it is it was of the Biggest selling records that never charted sadly for it's time
This should have no 1 how many times over
hypnotic time warp beats endlessly!
This 12" single was at the time and after the biggest ever selling 12" mainly to the night clubs playing it and popular demand. I wonder if it is still?
Way ahead of it's time
A timeless classic
Anthem of the 80s.
They did it and it changed music in my opinion - stunning and have the white label - still sounds as good today - talent :)
2 Words = Fucking Classic
Always will be and for the future
Holy shit. Bring it to me 80s!!! I love you and all your max headroom headband headshaking beats!
This is my favourite rendition of the song. Love how minimalistic this first version was, but still incredibly good and catchy. The 88 version's got too much sound effects for my taste.
Robin v. E. I agree, the cool minimalism of "Blue Monday" is what made this track so awesome.
Pure brilliance !
I like the other side too. This song f n rocks.
Yes, the B-side is called The Beach...awesome!!
Finaly got my copy today ! It plays beautiful im my turntable. What a tune!
80s the best
There will never be a song to match Blue Monday....
of course they will and there is, almost every joy division song
Back as a spotty teenager, smothered in 'Blue Stratos' aftershave, dressed in the 'club gear' giving it some in a smokey, grotty night club!. 🤣 Still have my original 12 inch of this in a plastic cover. Played once and 'taped'.... If you know you know that last bit!. 🤣
BLUE MONDAY is by JOY DIVISION with IAN CURTIS on vocals
I love this version!!
WAIT! WAIT! WAIT! WAIT! WAIT! WAIT! WHAT WAS THAT?!
Um, I think it's Blue Monday.
Man that was the original pressing!
For fuck sake.
13:18 LOVE that picked guitar bass!
ESTA CANCIÓN TUVO MILES DE IMITACIONES.
Summer 1983. Scotland. ⚡️⚡️⚡️
0:00 Side A - Blue Monday
7:30 Side B - The Beach
I think of 1986/87 when I hear it... but it was shoved in many a radio hotmix all the way through the mid 90s.
Was there a better track that this released in the '80s? So innovative, so catchy, so memorable and just so damm good...
You look back and ask yourself how this was even possible in 1983.
a drum machine made it possible, plus some very clever people
MDMA
Because we were generation X , THATS WHY!!!!
