Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Here are the young men, the weight on their shoulders
Here are the young men, well where have they been?
We knocked on the doors of Hell's darker chamber
Pushed to the limit, we dragged ourselves in
Watched from the wings as the scenes were replaying
We saw ourselves now as we never had seen
Portrayal of the trauma and degeneration
The sorrows we suffered and never were free
[Chorus]
Where have they been?
Where have they been?
Where have they been?
Where have they been?
[Verse 2]
Weary inside, now our heart's lost forever
Can't replace the fear, or the thrill of the chase
Each ritual showed up the door for our wanderings
Open then shut, then slammed in our face
[Chorus]
Where have they been?
Where have they been?
Where have they been?
Where have they been?
#JoyDivision #Decades #Closer - เพลง
There are songs that aren't simply songs, but something else far more powerful, that's why this band's so unique.
A song that stays with you during your life time.
I have been listening to them for 30 years. A dear old friend they are, along with my depression. It never gets better, only life goes on until it doesn't....
and beyond
Sure does.
So true. I haven't heard it for years but got irresistibly drawn back to it today.
Listening to the Closer album is an event that you plan for. You settle into your darkness and feel.
This song blurs the line between beauty and pain.

@@stormfromxmen3701 Shut up please
Yessss😢
These guys were in their early twenties when they wrote this magical ever lasting beauty of a song. Incredible.
Martin Hannet gives it that oomph factor as well
Joy Division had an authenticity that has been unparalleled before or since.
Im from Brazil. Ian is so special, many people from Brazil love Joy Division.
Closer is not an album of songs, it is a journey
It's a Poetry Compilation in Motion
But a journey to where? Unfortunately we know the answer. RIP Ian Curtis.
@@camillab7 For some people, life is hell, and salvation is another world. There is no death, we just continue elsewhere.
Closer (adjective): nearer. Closer (noun): finished.
An absolute masterpiece ❤.
I agree here 🖤🌹
The most beautiful, haunting song ever made.
This is definitely the best song written in history since the world began to exist ...
Over 40 years later now and it still makes me ...can't find words for it..an everlasting moment in time
After loosing my mum to cancer at 59 in 2018 , I found this track and it helped me grieve 🩷 Haunting but beautiful ✨️
It is nearly impossible to listen to anything else after this. It is so emotionally draining. There couldn't have been a better closing track for Closer.
It’s like church music played in hell
@@jayts81 Good way to put it. There's a preachy, ominous and cathartic element to this song.
Agree
@@polderdebanjan thik ble6is bhai
I agree friend it truely is emotionally draining too listen to anything else to get to the state this song puts you in an exeptence of darkness as a beauty
I love what happens around the 4:00 mark. It just feels like the culmination of everything that preceded. It's the final rumination or acceptance of his unfortunate fate.
Да
Так и есть
My favourite song. By anyone ever. Pure genius. Has made me cry 1000 times
So dark, but ethereal and beautiful. Feel the same here.
Head of his time, I was 21 when this song came out. Still a classic
JD lyrics are so inspiring, they are the most elegant and beautiful lyrics, forever. My soul will pick them up in my next life
How can a 20 something Englishman come up with these lyrics? Absolutely beyond his generation, RIP Ian.
Totally astonishing.....
These genius come, send a message and vanish
Intelligence and suffering
Alma antiga!
So dark, so beautiful ... such an outstanding song.
This song is so haunting, it gives me chills and a feeling of foreboding. What a master craft
a masterpiece

It's just like reading a Dostoyevsky novel ...beautiful...!!
❣ of course. Right on !
Hadn't thought of it before. And Dostoyevsky is one of my favorite authors.
4:01 that incredible synthesiser. Things just got even more serious...
I think few, if any other, moments in music have struck me with awe like that.
This song may be simple in structure but it's like a requiem in depth.
That, my friend, is the sound of Ultimate Despair.
I’m not sure who came up with that part, either Barney or Hannett but it is incredible
the perfect Joy Division song... each skeletal element arriving piecemeal as the song proceeds...the synthesizer that sounds like it was dropped on its head at birth... and when the real drums come in... one of the Great Moments in Recorded Sound... there's nowhere else to go after that song ends...
It’s Ian’s melodica. It’s a wind instrument with a keyboard not unlike an accordion
What a song, what ending, absolute masterpiece
The first song I ever heard with Joy Division (I was eleven years old). Knocked me out completely. Still in love!

Got tingles listening to this today. It hits home in so many ways, you can almost feel the universe expanding, ready to spit us out.
That does not alter the fact that the melody bears close resemblance to the 1976 track Le corridor from Canadian band Harmonium.
I saw this song live when Hooky played Unknown Pleasures and Closer live last week. Absolutely incredible.
GREATEST band of all time. Peter hook and Ian curtis are legands. Rip ian
don’t forget morris’ amazing drumming skills and sumners great riffs.
13 when I got into Joy Division my interest was stoked listening to the John peel Sessions another legendary person then I got to see them supporting Buzzcocks at the Rainbow Theatre in London then later they did a small gig at the High Wycombe Town Hall supported by my Killing Joke. I even hustled money in the street to get a friend in I absolutely loved that band . absolutely pissed over everything that was going on at the time way too dark for most people but absolutely legend . Ethereal aesthetic combined with Ian curtis's crazy dancing very abstract and intense reading of n m e e and sounds magazine I bawled my eyes out when I found out out about his suicide. I think by then I was 14 or 15 then I stopped buying my usual music magazines however always find myself coming back to their tunes watching drum covers some of them done very artfully done . got proper cult status hall of fame Legends
Barney is so underrated one of the greatest songwriters ever with New Order

You forgot Martin Hannett - no Hannett, no Joy Division.
Just a total classic
My favorite band of all the time is the The Doors and my favorite musician is Bach. And believe me, I really love music and I have listened almost everything, from Classic Music to World Music. Rock, Pop, Soul, RB, Funk from 60, 70, 80,90 and so on. Soft, hard and heavy. One thing Ive discovered, Ian Curtis is the most important lyric writer of all times. Too much for the rest. He was the lyrics Bach.
👌👍🏽🤙
👏👏👏👏👏
For sure
Ian Curtis loved Jim Morrison aswell the fact he burnt out at a young age..
Never underestimate joy division !!!! They are amazing
The ultimate proto-goth tune. Always my favorite Joy Division song, and probably always will be.

My favourite JD track also👍
This song was with me through one of my many depressive episodes, and I don't listen to it pretty often bc of the bad memories
But is such a beautiful song, and once I play it is like traveling in time
Same. It also not only a travelling in the bad times of your life, but also a travelling to the mediaeval Europe or ancient Greece

I listened to this song after a suicide attempt and just felt so understood. I wish I could save this man as he had saved me.
Feels like looking into the past and the future simultaneously.
This is still way ahead of any curve .... amazing. What a legacy Ian. Thank you.
This song makes me think of soldiers coming home from war and suffering from ptsd.
I'm currently suffering ptsd and this sums the whole flash back senerio awfully well , pregabalin and serious counseling x
It took me far too long to appreciate this band. They really were the blueprint.
I recently discovered the Great War poet Wilfred Owen was Commissioned into the Manchester Regiment in 1916. His poems often detail the horrors of his experiences of the war, including the deaths of the young men in his battalion. All Manchester lads, many from Salford. Around 1,000 or more of his comrades were killed in that war, probably most of them from the Manchester area. It must have been a huge blow to their families and the whole of Manchester. All those decades later, when I hear Ian Curtis sing ‘decades’, it is almost as if he is channeling the suffering, the loss of all those soldiers and the grief of their families. “Here are the young men, well where have they been?” Our own generation also are grateful for Ian because he articulated how many of our own lost generation felt in the late seventies.
Questo pezzo è di una bellezza devastante.....ti scava dentro... La voce di Ian Curtis è incredibile. Oltre il capolavoro..
Quelle puissance ténébreuse déployée . Je n'ose imaginé quelles chansons Ian nous aurez gratifié si il serait toujours parmi nous . Vraiment une masterpiece . R.I.P Ian 🙏

I went through a depressive episode almost a year ago. When i tried to commit suicide i put this song as a way to say goodbye.
Right now i don't listen this song very often but when i do it doesn´t hurt anymore :')
Stay here.......
👍🤗
hope you ok now,,,,im in that mode just now,,,,,sorry peoples.
I'm happy that you're better now. I was diagnosed with severe depression when I was a kid, I lost my father to suicide when I was eight years old. When I was 14 I drank for the first time, when I was 15 I smoked weed for the first time and after that I started to experiment with DXM cough syrup and pregabalin and other stuff. At some point I started with codeine and got addicted to iv subutex when I was like 20. I had already tried methylphenidate and amphetamine intravenously before that. I tried to commit suicide when I got drunk a few times, alcohol really worsened my depression and anxiety. Now I'm on suboxone treatment, and will be switched to methadone this fall. I'm 10 or 11 months sober from alcohol now. 🙂 Hang in there! Things will get better. I have ADHD too and maybe bipolar, but they haven't been able to sort out if I have bpd because I haven't been able to stay sober for long enough. There is a lot of bipolar on my fathers side of family. I also have OCD, but I don't know if it's been diagnosed. Things are going better for me now. 😊
@@ianmccrae3391 Hang in there buddy, it will get better at some point. I hope you are better now. 🙂 Please don't kill yourself.
Dark and beautiful. One of my favourites for sure.
The chord progression into, and repeated in, the chorus is sheer genius
this is the best Joy Division by a country mile!

I find Joy Divisions music theraputic and perhaps this track might even be the best Joy Division song? I wonder....
Li ascoltavo quando ero ragazzina ed ora dopo 40 anni, penso ancora che closer sia un vero capolavoro
"Closer" found me at one of the lowest points in my life. It felt like God was "rubbing salt into the wound".
A work of profound emptyness and brilliance, "Decades" took it to another level.
NO OTHER BAND CAN EVEN TOUCH THEM.
NONE!!!!!!!!!
You only understand this song in depression scary been on the edge of a cliff once don’t know why am still here
Me encanta Joy Division😊
This is my favourite song! The best of my heart
So beautiful, so depressing, so everything...
This track is amazing and it really touches my soul, especially from the 4:00 minute mark. That synth is just so meaningful. OMFG!!
An anthem, for all
I love this song so much that I learned to play it on my harp ❤
MASTERPIECE

"Portrayal of the trauma and degeneration". Damn, that line always get me, I guess I'm getting a tattoo of it.
I’m getting “We knocked on the doors of hell’s darkest chamber “
If you got that tatted , that would be corny af

Really resonates with me as well. I'm literally both traumatized and a degenerate
2:47 vi no twitter que "malandramente" teve uma interpolação tirada daqui, e que a Billie allish pegou esse mesmo sample
É nos tmj
Шедевр. Это лучший закрывающий трек из всех которые я когда либо слышал.
Ian got me through worst so long ago. I can go on, strong, through him.
Those sounds of keyboard are so dark and cool
I lost three cats in a split. They were my best pals. This is the last song We listened to out on the porch.. .
That's sad :(
I saw new order play at heaton park this Friday, and they played this just before they finished with love will tear us apart. One of the most mesmerising moments of my life. I can’t fathom what it’d be like back when they played this as joy division.
Better.

Ian Curtis RIP , genius
Ian Curtis Taugh us "NOT TO DO IT" with his Death he shows us the suicide. This is the song for suicide people, which remember us that it is always Hope in this life. Stay safe and be always good with human being.
Masterpiece
One my favourite songs of all the times!
maybe the greatest Joy Division's Song. or at least One of the best. so intense, so melancholic, so....
That whole track is pure genius, thats martin for the foresight to hear it in youre head, but the last 5 mins is a epic journey to heaven.
as a kid this album skitzed me out but now I can appreciate the beauty of it all. Righto. Goodnight .
Not many people know that the synth/mellotron part of this song bears a close resemblance to the instrumental outtro of Harmonium’s Le corridor from 1976. There are more Joy Division songs that sound like other songs. Check out New dawn fades and Dirt by the Stooges or Interzone and Keep on keeping on by Nolan Porter.
I get chills down my spine everytime I hear that last minute or so... 😰
My uni sound track in Brum. RIP Ian. And all of you. Saw New Order 3 times while I was there. All great concerts but I wanted to see Ian. Never mind.
Masterpiece 🖤 Ian Lives

Aww this is just sublime!!! Again my youth, saw them with the Buzzcocks and was blown away, they would have went to do some magical tracks but sadly no but, Closer is one on my moments from my life! Just stunning and with age its so much more haunting!
So beatiful.
