    Lyrics:
    [Instrumental Intro]
    [Verse 1]
    How does it feel
    To treat me like you do?
    When you've laid your hands upon me
    And told me who you are?
    I thought I was mistaken
    I thought I heard your words
    Tell me how do I feel?
    Tell me now, how do I feel?
    Those who came before me
    Lived through their vocations
    From the past until completion
    They'll turn away no more
    And still, I find it so hard
    To say what I need to say
    But, I'm quite sure that you'll tell me
    Just how I should feel today
    [Instrumental Break]
    [Verse 2]
    I see a ship in the harbour
    I can and shall obey
    But, if it wasn't for your misfortune
    I'd be a heavenly person today
    And I thought I was mistaken
    And I thought I heard you speak
    Tell me, how do I feel?
    Tell me now, how should I feel?
    Now I stand here waiting
    [Verse 3]
    I thought I told you to leave me
    When I walked down to the beach
    Tell me how does it feel
    When your heart grows cold
    (Grows cold, grows cold, grows cold, grows cold)
    [Instrumental Outro]

      Ok ok, it does not sound very good, I agree. But you (we) are all thinking in the album "canonic" version, 1000000000 listened in our lives. But, lets remember the song was really new, I feel they were a kind of training-testing the song, instruments, keyboards, Bernard´s voice tune, etc. Just listen to the weird (and nice) ending (3:45)

      They actually played quite badly on purpose and were quite frankly making fun of the entire situation they found themselves in. Keep in mind that at that time they still thought of themselves as being a punk band (despite all the electronic equipment and dance beats), and all of a sudden they are performing on the most mainstream music program on UK television.

      It took several attempts by TOTP to get them on. Each time the band said no to miming until TOTP relented to NO playing live….and the results were…..not great.
      The band would change their tune about miming in the later years when they were being offered trainloads of money.

    This isn't nearly as bad as most people make it out to be. Yeah, the synth goes out of tune and the sequencers go out of time a bit, but this is a real performance of a song that at other times was very robotic and artificial. The band were having a bit of a laugh, which endears them to me. It cut through the plastic of the miming culture on Top of the Pops, which Nirvana would also eventually do with "Smells Like Teen Spirit."

      @ThreadBomb 3 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Although New Order are seen as a synthpop band, they took pride in playing live, varying setlists every night and frequently improvising. It's worth checking out live recordings of their songs just to see how varied the performances were. That said, they did originally conceive Blue Monday as an encore that a sequencer could play while the band was drinking in the dressing room. You see a remnant of that idea at the end of the video, when the music changes and everyone stops playing.

Liked??? Listen to the songs of this other Brazilian band here that was very successful in the 80's too, I hope they don't remove it and that you like it ...
      I had left a link with another Brazilian band that was very successful here in Brazil in the 80s, but again they removed it, that group is so slutty, because it is not competing with English music, then I will make a list with the best bands, singers and songs on my channel, then if you want, go there and watch, combined English friend ???

      New Order, Pet Shop Boys, Erasure, Yazoo, Depeche Mode, and many English bands from the early 80's fulfilled a musical gap that didn't exist in Brazil and many other countries. The Brazilian song from the early 80's was a typical soft rock, boring and not interesting to dance.

    The synthesizer melody is out of sync with the rhythm, it was programmed in manually, each note had to be input which was done by Gillian, she missed a single note out of the programming and this threw the whole melody out. Few people know that Hooky's bass line is copied from the film A Few Dollars More!!! The drum line is from Donna Summers Our Love and the monk choir sound is sampled from Krafwerks Uranium!
