What I'm about to say has probably been said a thousand times about this song. There is no better song about love and the terrible things it can do to you. No words can communicate so effectively, so beautifully, the terrible, heart-wrenching feeling of severed attachment. Everything in this song... happened to me... you just have to stand in awe at this fucking genius songwriter. Ian...goddamnit. You really were a very special person.
Joy Division has help me through my life at the most miserable state of my life it's amazing what Ian can do even after death, but his music and the band will live on within our hearts.
This is THE version of the song imo. The way Curtis croons "Just that something so good/just don't function no more" like he's Frank Sinatra gets me every time. Some of his best singing was truly ahead. Sigh.
i've literally tryed to find this song for years hearing the classic guitar in it and adoring it and now my life is fufilled, fucking brillaint, never ever going to stop playing this :)
Joy Division was an amazing band ! I loved ’em very much. Great music and great musicions, what else could’ve sked for? Nuthin’ ! Grat band ! 😊 - jon fisher
Absolutely love how their studio and live sounds were very different. They had an intensely raw, visceral live sound. Steve is a brilliant drummer. Not technically flashy but his fills are just perfect.
always has, always will.. the way of it is just a memory now. safely guarded and kept locked inside my heart. I shall never forget the taste of it for the brief time it was.
This song has NEVER been off any audio device I have ever owned. From an old C60 mix tapes , vyinal, CDs, all the way thro burnt CD,s to my ipod. A true great.
I'm sure Hooky and Bernard would have said the same back then at least. However, I think Martin Hannett's production made Joy Division a band that was deeply influential across all genres in the years that followed rather than a band that was simply better than most other bands of their time :)
This is by far the best version of the song in my opinion. I think the production and the tempo being more "messy" and faster reminds me of Bowie's Low, I also think Curtis's singing being more distant instead of personal like on the main version also improves the song. A main problem I have with the original is also the mixing of the snare where it's louder than the mix seemingly and the drumming is perfect here.
i'm a life long fan of joy division and new order. its quite sad llstening to this as less that a year after this recording ian took his own life, a tragic loss not just because of his musical legacy being cut tragically short, but also because of the fact the guy was suffering from chronic depression and no one could save him. also, RIP john peel and tony wilson
The drumming here is incredible
Stephen's one of the best underrated drummers
Only Death Is Real Agree with you .Drummer is really fast..just perfect
Completely agree. Been trying to drum to this version well hard.
He is so underated as a drummer
Also this drumming was before drum machines.
Steve is great. His drumming was the foundation of band
This is the first version of this song I heard and for me it will always be the superior one
I heard this back in 2010 after seeing a skateboard video have their Pennine version. I found this one, Peel sessions always rule.
Fun fact, this is also the first time they recorded this song
@@IchMagEssen13 the live version was earlier

Agree
Damn
Fuck yes dude.
so true
The chaos theory of drumming. Sounds all random and all over the place, but everything is where it should be. Incredible drummer.
The drummer just banged along with the sound
@@hector3730 ...Lol...Yeah if you say so !
"Peel Sessions" has the best versions!
a la Napalm Death
A la the Smiths
Peel session is the best version of 24hrs too.
That's because the musicians had no labels and filthy managers that dictated their sounds, Peel let them do their own thing
@@erebousdeFactory Records also let them do their own thing but Martin Hannett was definitely a bit controlling with the production.
Best version in my opinion so raw talent
Joy Division has help me through my life at the most miserable state of my life it's amazing what Ian can do even after death, but his music and the band will live on within our hearts.
The best bass line ever, Awesome.
One of thee best songs that has ever graced this little planet of ours, simple genius by ian curtis
Completely raw love this version
It's still my favourite version. The British music scene really misses John Peel.
Beautiful version... vocals, synth, drums and bass all on point.
My favourite rendition of this song. It's so powerful.
This is THE version of the song imo. The way Curtis croons "Just that something so good/just don't function no more" like he's Frank Sinatra gets me every time. Some of his best singing was truly ahead. Sigh.
+Jay Coburn Even with some of his later performances of "Atmosphere" you can tell he was just learning how to properly sing
i hear a Jim Morrison vibe...deep + poetic
I think this was the time when Tony Wilson gave Ian Frank Sinatra records and he actually grew to like Sinatra.
@@maritheresereyes yes and thats why the version of this song that was finally released had more legato and smoother phrases, just like sinatra.
TOO GOOD. Amazing mixture of pure energy and fragile, beautiful interpretation.
Best version of the song. I choose this over the single version every time.
Ian, you were young and vulnerable. You left us with a limited, deep masterpiece of music. Thank you!
Outstanding music
God, Ian was absolutely superb on these tracks, Can you imagine what he might have done if he lived?
He did what he was sent here for
no new order lol
The intro is so fucking good. The drums speak for themselves
Great live John Peel Session version of the classic tune.
I remember having such fun taping the Peelie Session's,alas the got lost in a move , Traumatized! Loved Joy Division Amen💚🎶
Best version in my opinion
THE BEST VERSION
Well, yesh the drummin’ is fantastic ! What a feelin’ in the drummin’ ! Wow! A great member in Joy Division.- jon fisher
I to think this guys drumming is frigin amazing it makes my hair on my arms stand up its unbelievable.

Listened to it back in the day! (on John Peel Show) Finally bought these sessions on vinyl in 1989! dx
this is one of the best songs ever made...so uplifting!!!
i've literally tryed to find this song for years hearing the classic guitar in it and adoring it and now my life is fufilled, fucking brillaint, never ever going to stop playing this :)
This song will sound awesome in any decade it is played it's ageless music.
Joy Division will live on....
Joy Division was an amazing band ! I loved ’em very much. Great music and great musicions, what else could’ve sked for? Nuthin’ ! Grat band ! 😊 - jon fisher
Wow. This version is so beautiful, love how raw it is
Absolutely love how their studio and live sounds were very different. They had an intensely raw, visceral live sound. Steve is a brilliant drummer. Not technically flashy but his fills are just perfect.
One of the best ever drummers in my opinion. Original and inventive and technically perfect.
@@stevetaylor317 The way he plays the hi-hats is crazy good
LWTUA Peel Sessions is my fav one. Drums more powerful and an uptempo rousing beat in relation to album version.
Great song for an awesome band.
Peel sessions really rock, for almost every artist,
This is the best version of this song. Powefull,clean,.
Awesome!.. Peel always enhances everything he gets in on
always has, always will.. the way of it is just a memory now. safely guarded and kept locked inside my heart. I shall never forget the taste of it for the brief time it was.
This version is how this song should be .so impressive
The best beginning and intro to a song i ever heard - up there with purple haze-....
tfw you have been with someone you loved so much and he loved you back more than anything and you both end up hurt because of this
awesome. the mix is great. morris's drumming is ultra heavy.
12;00 del día aquel hermoso día. paseando en auto con mi broother. Love will teart us apart a todo volumen mientras nuestro viaje terminaba.
Best version ever. Period.
I've just realized that the peel sessions are brilliant recordings. I will have a good week!
Best version of the song.

Perfect start and end.

One of the greatest era's of music

This song has NEVER been off any audio device I have ever owned. From an old C60 mix tapes , vyinal, CDs, all the way thro burnt CD,s to my ipod. A true great.
fk me, almost 40 yrs ago. still sounds ace
Always love this... always.
I love this version more than the original tbh (don't hurt me)
Depending on what you believe this is the first version
this is a spectacular version, i agree with you.
This is closer in style to how they played it at gigs , imo
I'm sure Hooky and Bernard would have said the same back then at least. However, I think Martin Hannett's production made Joy Division a band that was deeply influential across all genres in the years that followed rather than a band that was simply better than most other bands of their time :)
i like the two lol, and the pennine version
Yooo It's the music from the Nookie Man created by Animan Studios
the good old days! back at the kitchen club -joy division is one of my favs!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like this more than the album version. this ones more real sounding
Amazing version!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lembra bem meu estado debutante do meu estado de adolescer em nroll nos anos 80 um marco!
LOOOOOOVVVVVVE, LOOOOOOOVE WILL TEAR US APART AGAIN.

Ian was the greatest!So haunting and meaningful. Love Joy Division

Danke,danke .danke, auf meiner Beerdigung läuft diese Version .
Pure energy
I adore Joy Division and this song. Broken Social Scene did a hauntingly beautiful cover if this that I also love.
Best version ever! Super RAW!!!!
love this song so much!
will be 30 yrs ago tomorrow (18/5) since the sad loss of Ian Curtis (RIP) please take a moment tomorrow to remember what he gave us all
Un track movido, un Ian que no se siente atormentado...Está es para mí de las 3 versiones la mejor sin duda...
i'm a life long fan of joy division and new order. its quite sad llstening to this as less that a year after this recording ian took his own life, a tragic loss not just because of his musical legacy being cut tragically short, but also because of the fact the guy was suffering from chronic depression and no one could save him. also, RIP john peel and tony wilson
Peel sessions is relatively post punkier than the original substance one . Sad but Punk .
essa é a melhor versão!
Melody, lyrics, bass, and synth: 😔
Drums:😄😜
the best version of this song
love this version
Thanks!
Ian Curtis I never get tired of this song...why the great ones have to go like this.
Es por lejos la mejor versión de este tema
Awesome song
