Speaking as someone who is (much) older than the internet , this is the sort of thing I appreciate most about it . I would never have been able to hear this interview and so many others that I've enjoyed but for the kind people who post these gems . Thanks for sharing !
It is like life mate. I have issues with my family, step - Sister & Brother. It got worse When my Mother died. I am 54, so I don't think I worry so much emotion and frustration about seeing them. It is the same in any Band, that are together for many years. Bernard Sumner, born in January. A Capricorn : worries about money. Can be self centered. Loyal to close friends. Hates any confrontation with people. Peter Hook, Aquarius: A person with a playful mind. I loves the experience of being on stage. The partying and socialise. Just a Man with guts and passion for his life. As it is and when it was 🤝
Hooky is a brilliant writer too. Reading his book Unknown Pleasures: Inside Joy Division was like sitting down and sharing a pint with him. Couldn't put the book down
Have seen New Order many times between 1982 and 1990. Then saw the current New order line up in 2013 ... great sound but same songs you always expect from them. I've also seen Hook live twice (2011 - Unknown Pleasures) and 2013 (Movement and Power, Corruption, and Lies). Hooky was true to the original recordings and managed to get a great sound! Can't wait to see the Low Life/Brotherhood show in 2014 November in Toronto.
Had to choose between seeing Hooky or NO this last year. I chose Hooky, was definitely the best decision I've made in a while. Peter was the heart of the band.
I saw both the New Order show and the Peter Hook show within 6 weeks of each other....New Order was good....Hook show was great, the best club show I have seen in a decade
@@kevcatnip7589 I’ve got a theory on that….. maybe he had fkt Caroline Aherne. In hookys book he said she had been with lots of her peers….. maybe there was history there
John Gregory It was amazing growing up with the Buzzcocks and Joy Division and the Smiths. There was a scene and I truly believed punk would change the world. I went down to London in the eighties, couldn't find a vibe. Missed baggy which was ironic considering I was friends with one of the Happy Mondays and went to the same schools. Salford and Manchester have contributed greatly, obviously, to music and the late great Tony Wilson was a superb cultural ambassador. Did go to the Hacienda. Visit if you get the chance. City centre in parts a bit pretentious now, though
Peter Hook may say that Movement was difficult, etc, but it produced - I think I'm right in saying - Procession, which is one of the all-time best tracks of all time. And a mere B-side!
Procession was an A-Side, the b-side of the single was "Everything's Gone Green'. 'Everything...' was the A side of a twelve inch single, but Procession wasn't on it (Cries & Whispers and Mesh were on the 12" flip).
It's so sad that people feel they have to choose sides. Even sadder is the fact that eventually when they get older they'll probably look back and think….what the fuck did we do that for…what was all that about…the things you do in this life are usually given their worth by the people you share them with and yet people can fall out over the stupidest of things (normally brass and egos)…..shame. Great Bands all of them !
Such a lovely guy. Met him and the rest of New Order in Islington at the Synthesizer service centre years ago, when they were having their Moog Serviced. Was really down to earth and chatty.. much like he is here in this interview. Shame all the current and post members of New Order can't all shake hands. Life is too short, guys.
@@revol148oh, and Hooky doesn’t?! 😂😂😂😂 He’s all about himself. It’s not just about Bernard when the other two agree with him. It was Hooky choice to leave and to write terrible things about his former bandmates. He doesn’t get along with anyone, what does this say about his character?
Peter , come on your nearly 60 , you and Bernard - get back together. You are opposite ends of the same piece of string. You obviously love each other. Just get it sorted That's an order ( a new order) Steven
No, it's like Waters in Pink floyd,...it's very clear to me after reading Bernard's book,...he is still waiting for Peter to tell the band what's its all about...
There are 2 sides to a story. I have read both Hooky's and Bernard's books. They are both good reads, but I feel that Hooky's books are filed with anger directed at his former band mate and doesn't skirt any issues. Seems he doesn't miss out on any opportunity to knock Barney for everything that went wrong in his life within the band. Barney might skirt a few things in his book, but he seems to take the high road and not delve to much into stuff that to him should stay within the confines of the band and not be for anyone else' s ears. Shame they can't work thing's out for the sake of the fans.
Most 'famous' Manchester musicians are insufferably pretentious Northerners but Hookey seems genuine and those iconic basslines especially the JD stuff are truly iconic and have really stood the test of time.
One of the most truly down to earth punk bands has to be Manchester's very own Buzz cocks?! Come on, as a Manc myself I cannot stand that Oasis swagger bullshit, or Morrissey pretension. Just give me good music...from wherever!
It’s interesting, I was growing up when New Order, the Smiths and then Morrissey were in their prime. FM radio NEVER played any of the amazing music from these amazing bands. That is criminal. I never discovered them, and so many other great bands from that era until well after that time period. I feel robbed. But the good thing is, I have discovered them and I appreciate the music so much. The Light sounds amazing doing those Songs. There is a 7:00 version of “Thieves Like Us” out there that is excellent.
We were very lucky in Toronto, we had CFNY 102.1 FM blasting all these tunes in the 80’s. Made all our mix cassettes and heard all the new music from that radio station. it’s not the same station anymore...
Lucky for me at school in the early 80s my mate brought me all the tapes saying "ya gotta hear this" he brought me joy division, new order,mondays,smiths and then some ,we went to see happy Mondays at the octagon Sheffield 1989 😅
_"I find that.. this is the only fuckin' business in the world... where a bunch of people can't get together to make millions of dollars.. What the fuck is wrong with everybody? Does it suck to play music? _*_NO..."_* - Doyle [The Misfits] When one takes all the BS out of the way, there is no real solid reason for most bands to not get back together to make music. It's so damned frustrating when bands/bandmates can't simply just bury the hatchet and just come together for their fans and just play music, especially those bands with large fanbases - even if it's for one last time. Before you know it, one or more members has/have passed away and the opportunity is lost forever. New Order and The Smiths, along with many others out there should take a look at the past and realize the precious opportunity they are discarding. One of my all-time favorite bands, The Chameleons, is a prime example of this. The bickering in that band was insane and though there was a reunion in the early 2000's, everything fell apart again. Despite fans calling out for a truce and another reunion (to no avail), early last year, John Lever (drums) passed away and now, the book on a proper reunion is forever closed. Even if they would set aside their massive differences and reunite, it will never again be a "proper" reunion. The clock waits for no one and the biggest regrets in life are usually the would've/should've/could've type... Time is ticking boys...
@Keith1974 If you see the making of money as a good impetus to make music, then you're missing the whole point of music making *_BUT,_* since you brought up $$$ to begin with and you say they're making "millions", then they'd probably make double or triple that amount if he came back... *_GUARANTEED._* So, if again, if $$$ is so important a facet for you, then you should see his coming back as hugely profitable to the band and a very good reason for him to return...
Peter is Sooo much cooler, and more pleasant sober. Guess most people are, but some more than others. Met him five times..3 while he was a Boozehound and 2 sober..very cool chap.
Hooky's a genuine fella. My mates and I were walking up the steps of The Apollo (Manchester) going to a Psychedelic Furs gig and he stopped to have a word. Half of us were Tunnelvision and I was Section 25. He knows and remembers his family (y)
I adored The Smiths. Then Morrissey for the sake of continuity. Even I can see that Morrissey disliked Joy Division because they did exactly what Morrissey wanted to do. They got there before Morrissey. Plus, they were really bloody good from the beginning. RIP Ian Curtis
Such a shame the bands tended to hate on eachother. I didn't experience anything of the sort in the Florida scene, teasing if anything, but ultimately, we look out for eachother.
I saw them in London live. Shite really. On disc another story. Don't you remember them doing Blue Monday on TOTP live. Peter's lockdown recording were brilliant. He doesn't need New Order now.
When I lived at home, back in the early 90's. My Mum, rang up Factory records office. I believe She spoke to Tracey. My Mum, bought me for one Christmas Revenge T-shirt, Electronic T- shirt, Video of Cities in the park ( festival 1991, Music of new order songs Republic. Durutti Column album live New York. Badges of hacienda club (51). Talk about mail ordering.😇
Odd, they mention a Manchester Cathedral concert, so strange,,, as far as i know, a famous rock band would never be scheduled to play (as a public venue) in a cathedral or church here in usa.
yeah i have seen 65daysofstatic there!..it has a great sound!!..funnily enough there is a joy division picture taken underneath a willow tree outside Manchester Cathedral
I don't think the smiths would ever get back together and I don't think that hooky would ever get back with new order because of his band the light, I think hooky is comfortable in that role now. Morrissey and Mark E Smith sound like total Knobends that would never give you the time of day!
Interesting that Tony Wilson, ( had turned down The Smiths), 🤔 He was either being very picky, or just a personal reason other Morrisey. I can understand why he never signed Soft Cell. He could of signed The Smiths for their first album. It was a real shame about James, but they were getting more commercial and successful. I don't think the Railway Children had more than 2 studio albums released by Factory records. Happy Mondays came last in a unsigned competition. Tony, signed them for a gamble. Cath Carroll, singer was from the South (uk), got signed to Factory label. Album ' England made me' Probably another gamble to get started, but lack of promotion was the main problem Factory had with the music industry/business.✒🤝
Have you ever wondered that both Bernard and Peter could be weird personalities and just clashed because their characters didn't match? Neither of them may be right, they just have strange personalities and do not want to admit their mistakes ...
They lasted longer than most bands, if you were told you had to work with the same group of people for 40 odd years it would probably be a daunting prospect.
That's what I think, just mismatched agendas and personalities. They both seem like good people deep down although hooky seems a bit more of a loose cannon.
@@jmancali no one said his playing is shitty, hooky was great in new order. I simply said, I find what Bernard is doing now more creative than simply playing your past LPs. I don’t agree that people aren’t up and dancing or singing along, I’ve recently seen them twice in the last few years, both times I witnessed people up and dancing and singing along. As for ego, both Bernard and hooky have those, that’s the problem.
When you get divorced you get to argue over the dog, furniture and the car etc! Bernard got Jonny Marr and he got Mike Joyce! Meaning Bernard got the better deal as in most divorces! Hope it clears that up?
Hi it would have been nice if you had just reviewed the new album but the fact your response was mostly positive was. Cool after the smiths imploded the media then the NME have Tried to kill Morrissey off due to his so called right wing sympathies today it’s the guardian and every other TV personality sticking the knife in.morrissey is many things but racist is just silly Alex Baldwin is black and Morrissey has his image all around .l believe it’s the loss of British culture that’s slowly been disappearing but if any one makes a comment on immigration or the number of places of worship in Luton he is declared a racist when in fact is just talking about something that is not allowed to be discussed. Morrissey is a living icon only after his death will his true contribution to pop culture music be truly appreciated we will not see anyone do what he has done with the smiths and his solo work .. the secret of music. Indeed
Rob Gretton was right, despite his constant whining about wanting to be dead, he hasn't the guts to actually do it, so he will just hold up in his Beverley Hills "Spanish style estate" and cry about cheeseburgers, and how life is so cruel and how he wises he were dead...as the cash rolls in.
If you mean in the songs, there's hardly any of that. And the speakers in the songs are characters. I can only speak for the Smiths songs really. Anyway, I don't think anyone, you or Rob Gretton, should turn around and criticize someone for not doing something they definitely shouldn't do, whatever they said before.
Morissey is a shame as human being. Spending most of the time denying his homosexuality is the worse example for gay kids and teens who need role models to help them to assume who they are. As an artist Morissey lacks sincerity, he is finally a fake. Shame on him!

I'm going to guess you're not a lick over 60.
@@chocomanger6873 wow that looks just like Peter Hook
he looks like he swallowed something with a hook still in it
Say what you want about his playing but he had his own unique sound. You can tell a hooky bassline a mile away.
Absolutely.
He often used his bass like a lead guitar and left the actual bass playing to the keyboard...
His playing is great.
Clone Theory
"Bernard got him in the divorce" - Amazing. Haha.
Brilliant quip there. When he talks about Barney, as much as they have issues, I do get a feeling like he still loves him on some level.
It is like life mate.
I have issues with my family, step - Sister & Brother.
It got worse When my Mother died.
I am 54, so I don't think I worry so much emotion and frustration about seeing them.
It is the same in any
Band, that are together for many years.
Bernard Sumner, born in January.
A Capricorn : worries about money.
Can be self centered.
Loyal to close friends.
Hates any confrontation with people.
Peter Hook, Aquarius: A person with a playful mind.
I loves the experience of being on stage.
The partying and socialise.
Just a Man with guts and passion for his life.
As it is and when it was 🤝
@@juju5568 thank for telling it. People get so caught up in the smells. Bands are relationships on many levels. Divorce happens right?
Quality.
That bit made me cackle poor hooky lol
Hooky is a brilliant writer too. Reading his book Unknown Pleasures: Inside Joy Division was like sitting down and sharing a pint with him. Couldn't put the book down
It was written 4 him not by him numb nut
Sorry credit were due. He did write it. Only a man admits he is wrong.
Hearing it actually being read by Hooky really makes you feel like your sitting having a pint with him.
That is a great way of putting it. It captured exactly hpw he talks. Though he doesn't drink anymore, so it'll be a Virgin Mary.
@@deanluff2874 "Only a man admits he is wrong"....and unnecessarily rude.
I love Peter's bass playing.
What about his drum playing though?
Love the comment about Bernard getting Johnny Marr in the divorce! Hooky is hilarious and his book Unknown Pleasures is brilliant.
Hooky’s New Order book is great as well!!
It's telling he has to laugh it off that way
I love Hooky, he's one of my heroes. Great interview !

I saw new order, then hook and the light within a month. Also just saw hook last night. Got to say the light was 10 times more amazing.

It seems like the title of this video is misleading, it mentions "his legal fight with New Order", this is Peter Hook's fight, not Morrissey's.
The comma before the 'and' takes away any ambiguity.

their record barely scratched the Top 20, I don't know if they would've been worth it financially. New Order went to number one that year

They lasted longer than most bands, if you were told you had to work with the same group of people for 40 odd years it would probably be a daunting prospect.
That's what I think, just mismatched agendas and personalities. They both seem like good people deep down although hooky seems a bit more of a loose cannon.
ngl i thought that was alex jones
What happened to Monaco, Hooky? And were you guys trying to sound like New Order?
New Orders latest cd Music Complete is perfection.
"manchester so much2answer4" ::: :
Edward see those alluring lights
tonight will be your very last night.
A woman said "I know my son is dead, I'll never rest my hands on his sacred head"
Such a top geezer
Nice one
I find Bernard is a creative, he wants to move forward. Hooky less so, he's happy to relive past glories. I personally prefer Bernards direction.
@@jmancali no one said his playing is shitty, hooky was great in new order. I simply said, I find what Bernard is doing now more creative than simply playing your past LPs. I don’t agree that people aren’t up and dancing or singing along, I’ve recently seen them twice in the last few years, both times I witnessed people up and dancing and singing along. As for ego, both Bernard and hooky have those, that’s the problem.
@@karaloca it was a personality clash
It makes me so sad that I know a bunch of nietzschean bass lines what I wrote and poor Peter don't know none of them
It's pretty egotistical to act like they're not new order without him when its three of the originals, doesn't happen with other bands
Hooky is great.
I wish you guys could settle your differences :(
its pretty pathetic at their age, in a way
ogfunk187 In what way?
spats67 Howards Way
They are rich now, so they don’t need each other anymore. They have ‘artistic’ differences...
No. The Pixies aren't being 'dissed' at 7.15
mrm cairns Agreed...Dissing Tony's bad judgement.
Hooky.. the lad next door ;)
wow that looks just like Peter Hook
Can someone please explain the divorce joke? Please?
Whereabouts in the interview is that ?
When you get divorced you get to argue over the dog, furniture and the car etc! Bernard got Jonny Marr and he got Mike Joyce! Meaning Bernard got the better deal as in most divorces! Hope it clears that up?
@@shaunescott2050 Yes! Thanks!
the only thing we have left as a city is that the smiths are not coming back together lmao
Happy 58th birthday, Peter Hook!! :)
The Man
A one minute plus advert at the start? For fucks sake fellas sort it out.
I didn't know how funny 'ookie is.
Mmmmmm!!!!.....wonder what the truth is as regards,..... 'sitting down and talking about it' ??.....
Love MORRISSEY! I wish he would get back with NO. Saw NO 5 times in the 80's. Morrissey about 70+ times.
Er what? Morrissey was never with New Order. Morrissey was The Smiths' singer and they're even less likely to play together than Pete and Bernard are.
@@jennyjohn704 Duh. Ik that. I meant I wish Hooky was back with NO
Derek Hatton benefit gig?
Nearly 60? Fucking hell. Top, top bloke
chronically bad as a dj hooky
manchester is the best City in the world. 💗💗
I thought this was Alex jones!
Honest to a fault.
Hey bad man where are you going to go when you can’t go back to the life you know?
Hi it would have been nice if you had just reviewed the new album but the fact your response was mostly positive was. Cool after the smiths imploded the media then the NME have Tried to kill Morrissey off due to his so called right wing sympathies today it’s the guardian and every other TV personality sticking the knife in.morrissey is many things but racist is just silly Alex Baldwin is black and Morrissey has his image all around .l believe it’s the loss of British culture that’s slowly been disappearing but if any one makes a comment on immigration or the number of places of worship in Luton he is declared a racist when in fact is just talking about something that is not allowed to be discussed. Morrissey is a living icon only after his death will his true contribution to pop culture music be truly appreciated we will not see anyone do what he has done with the smiths and his solo work .. the secret of music. Indeed
I get your point and agree. It's James Baldwin by the way. And he's a big fan of Dick Gregory. Definitely not racist.
Rob Gretton was right, despite his constant whining about wanting to be dead, he hasn't the guts to actually do it, so he will just hold up in his Beverley Hills "Spanish style estate" and cry about cheeseburgers, and how life is so cruel and how he wises he were dead...as the cash rolls in.
If you mean in the songs, there's hardly any of that. And the speakers in the songs are characters. I can only speak for the Smiths songs really.
Anyway, I don't think anyone, you or Rob Gretton, should turn around and criticize someone for not doing something they definitely shouldn't do, whatever they said before.
Hasn't the guts to kill himself ...? It takes guts to live you silly bitch.
Morissey is a shame as human being. Spending most of the time denying his homosexuality is the worse example for gay kids and teens who need role models to help them to assume who they are. As an artist Morissey lacks sincerity, he is finally a fake. Shame on him!
He may not have felt comfortable with himself. It’s unfortunate though that he is obviously a narcissistic person.
hi Peter I'm Martin From Rhyl Tony Sweetmans sons partner in business, do you have any work in Landscaping or decorating?
I love New Order. I love Stuart. I hate Mark.
Peter Hook is very similar to Robbie Williams but without the Mellotron.
looks like my landlord
Hook, you're mad. You never accepted Sumner, why did you end it. Bernard was a total asset. Why?
@You Tube viewer I'm sure you're on intimate terms with them both
Please go back to New Order
Why? They were done almost 30 years ago
Hooky what can you say about those fellow Mancs??? Meh dont even say that lads Stephen's stage name😂
