Have you ever heard this soundcheck by the band in late December, 1985 (12 days before my 12th birthday!) , perchance?

I just turned 56y/o. I retired after 25.5 years at my last job(Graybar Electric Co) when I was 53.5y/o. Time to rest the knee's and the lower back. No more steel toes on concrete for me ever.
Honestly, this comment got in my head. It does hit hard. Longing for youth and all that. But I also remember that I was an alcoholic grad student with undiagnosed bipolar, an inability to be alone despite a need to live alone, a hoarder, & an absolute high functioning disaster. I can breathe now & am learning to appreciate that memories of youth are delightful, all sunshine & music & epic moments, but the reality was much less jazzy & id rather be the me I am today… We are beautiful in so many ways when we are new & fresh but terrible at being us. Now we are tarnished & cynical & less shiny but we are so much better at being the self that we are meant to be (ie maslow’s stage of self actualization for the science-minded).
Definitely one of the cleverest songs ever written. It breaks with nearly every classic convention of pop music. The different audio tracks at first glance seem to have almost nothing to with each other. Voice, rhythm, synth all playing along seemingly independent of each other. But the end product is a timeless pop song. It's crazy. Absolutely crazy. Pure genius and one-of-its-kind.
I wonder if it has anything to do with this song being expected at every concert. There are probably countless imperfections that are part of what make the song for everyone else, but drive it's creators up a wall.
@@MarMoif Not so surprising maybe after all. It's not your classic pop song. You really have to listen to it a few times until you understand it's not just some kid arbitrarily crashing into various instruments. The cleverness is not immediately appearant.
54 yrs old and I fell in love with a drummer named Dan who played this song with a local cover band in STL called "Paint the Earth"...love a drummer and love this songs drum machine.🦋
That's our life actually. You're actually experiencing your whole life in a blink of an eye. Time dilation is a thing when dreaming or hallucinating so we could be on our death beds right now just remembering our past life. L

My daughters have grown up listening to me rank my all time fav 80s songs. They can sing most of them having driven in the car with me when they were little. This song, without a doubt, is my #1.
So many brilliant bands of the 80’s, these are one of them, makes me feel fortunate to have been living my teens at the time .This era will never be bettered .
I am 20, I wish I could have been born during this peak of music. It makes me so sad that I will never be able to experience any of this culture! All of the bands I love I will never be able to see haha. The cure, new order, joy division, the smiths
35 years ago today this incredible gem was released. You can't help but to move and dance around to this. Such brilliance. Such emotion. Such a F'in great song!
My grandmother was dying of lung cancer and in her final days my father and I brought her home from the hospital so she could die peacefully in her own home.

The soundtrack of my 20's!!! 1987, walking all over Old San Juan under the tropical sun, in a sundress, soaking up the sunshine, with my walkman and singing and dancing like I was the only one there. Absolute, pure, intoxicating JOY!
This is one of those classic New Order tracks that you hardly here anymore but.... it's still concerned a true classic of they're's and still sounds as fresh today as it did way back in 1986!
This is one of those songs that sound really nostalgic to the point of it being melancholy for no reason even though the tune of it is so upbeat and calm.
I wouldn't say for no reason. The lyrics and guitar (particularly the outro) are very melancholic even though most the instrumentals are upbeat, that's why. Listen to any bittersweet song and there is a high chance they use the same kind of juxtaposition. It's very prevalent in 80s dance music.
@@GanjaBro99 People believed in love, which was the norm and tradition of humanity compared to what we have today. Which is why it was very prevalent. All music of yore is about love, romance, disappointments, break ups. The 80's just had that up beat to dance to while lip synching love lyrics.
I still have all of my records from when i use to dj house parties in the 1980s and 90s. This is one of my all time favorites songs from 1987 back when i was 20 years old. Not a day doesn't go by now that i am 58 years old, that i wish i could go back to the 1980s and stay forever!.
This song is like having a Frappuccino/mochaccino with chocolate, vanilla, caramel, wipe cream, and cherry on top, switching all intensity in flavors, from beginning to end, pure genius. One of my top 3 songs in this planet. I'm a Mexican from Mexico but thank goodness came to the US, and in Utah in 1996 and this song was played lots and my best friend loved it
That is good! It reminds me of getting my barback to cover my bar for 3 minutes. So I could run back into the walk in to do a big fat line. I was a bartender in 2 of the best bars on the planet during the 80s. I haven't touched that shit since 1990.
I think the reason is there was so many different artists and so much music and genres in that period. It just somehow got skipped over or pushed to the side, no room left in the rotation. Which isn’t a bad thing necessarily, people just had to dig a little harder to find. Now it’s all same 3 types of garbage music everywhere.
I believe you are absolutely right they are the bomb they are the greatest I love to hear this song my son dedicated it to me he always said that it not reminded him of me and he would always get down on his knees and pray for me thank you Brandon I love you my son I always will I miss you since 2000 when you died
Song reminds me of when I just finished school and ready to explore life as a young man the year was 1987.They played this all the time at the dance clubs, I wish I could never leave that time, those years were the best young free happy and simple
A lot of the new wave songs from the 80s are just absolute gold and they're so iconic that even to this day, they are being used as soundtracks. Lovin' it!!!😁😁😁😁
I am beyond thankful to my parents for raising me on great music. I remember being high school in 2011 and having the same music interests as my teachers who grew up in the 80’s.
It's my favourite song of all time. It was, is and will be! I'm so glad my grandpa used to let me listen to a cassette of the Brotherhood album when I was a little boy. I loved all the songs on the album so much, but the one I looked forward to the most... I still have that tape and the Walkman itself from the late 80's, which my grandfather gave me because he didn't need it now. Side B, the very first one is Bizarre Love Triangle. Thank you, New Order for your work and this song in particular. And thanks to my grandfather who introduced me to your great song. I love you!
Love this song, I have the 12inch vinyl of this song and I listened to it over and over back in the day. It knocks spots off todays music with some notable exceptions! Even today it sounds brilliant and very contemporary. A classic .
I heard this today and it instantly takes me back to wonderful times in my youth. Carefree summers, a bizarre love triangle or two, enjoying life with friends.. what I would give to go back to those days.
I wish they use a lot of keyboards in modern music but still not as much as the 80’s. They used them a lot and really well too, the songs from the 80’s also have bttr lyrics with stories or love
So hard to believe how much the world has changed. This is very nostalgic for me as a kid growing up in the 90’s. The innocence of no technology is gone and it will never come back.
I remember hearing this song about a year and a half ago and I realized how nostalgic it was for me. (My mom was a teen in the 80s so she raised me on all the good stuff) Since I rediscovered it, I have been listening to it almost daily and I never get sick of it. This is the only song I've ever heard where each time I listen to it it feels like I'm hearing it for the first time.
EXACT SAME HERE except I'm 63 now. And I'm STILL ALIVE and thriving even though I've had a condition for 39 years that could've killed me during any of that time. Weren't those times on the dance floor some of the ABSOLUTE BEST, MOST BELOVED TIMES we've everrrrrrr had😁🤪😎⁉⁉⁉
As a very young clubber with one foot in the indie band scene, this tune opened all the doors and brought all the people in those scenes together and led us all into the amazing few years that changed us all forever.
The kids who ideated Adult Swim as being the surreal tail end to Cartoon Central was have been seeing the SUBSTANCE Anthology video while.... perhaps using a substance or too. But it's the stuff of legend!
Same here. I was born in 89, grew up in the 90s and 2000s but there’s a hold the 80s has on me. It’s so amazing, the music, the movies, the style, all of it. I wish I lived through it.
Lots of respect to you! I never really fully appreciated the edgy grunge 90s compared to what came before! To be fair there is music quality all around us, but I feel like the good old days will be hard to replicate, especially since, food for thought for a fellow music lover, Led Zeppelin used to highlight pop stations :(
It's not that obvious now, but back when this came out, it was one of the first music videos to use digital editing in that way. At the time, there was nothing like this, not just musically, but also visually. We mostly saw music videos the same way, on a little television set, usually less than 17 inches or so, maybe in color, usually broadcast from a little UHF station, because the networks would never, ever play this, though MTV did. None of us had internet, we had the music when we could get it, and we had those nightclubs. This song was like a window into an unimaginable world, one that stood for so much more than the heavy metal and classic rock of the day. It was music of acceptance, kind of music of the future that we saw in front of us. But often it was just these little videos that we saw, especially if we were too young for the clubs. And this song with this video was the most important one of all. The song and the video feed off of each other, and the images that Longo chose, like that little girl running with the doll, or his iconic businessman walking, they burned into our memories in a way that regular music videos couldn't, he was (and is) an artist that has done something nonderivative, something unignorable, even as he humbly claimed that he just copied what he loved. I think that even in another hundred years, people will see this video and wonder how NO and Longo could had possibly rewritten the rules of artistic engagement as they did here. It amazes me now, but I had met Longo at Hunter College about 30 years ago, I didn't know at the time that he was the vision behind this.
Alternative bands had THE best music videos bar none. I remember most mainstream groups had just concert footage, or just them lip syncing, and/or movie scenes from whatever film they provided part of the soundtrack for spliced in. Lame. Music videos should add another dimension to songs IMHO.
LYRICS: Every time I think of you I feel shot right through with a bolt of blue It's no problem of mine But it's a problem I find Living a life that I can't leave behind But there's no sense in telling me The wisdom of the fool won't set you free But that's the way that it goes And it's what nobody knows well every day my confusion grows Every time I see you falling I get down on my knees and pray I'm waiting for that final moment You say the words that I can't say I feel fine and I feel good I'm feeling like I never should Whenever I get this way I just don't know what to say Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday I'm not sure what this could mean I don't think you're what you seem I do admit to myself That if I hurt someone else Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be Every time I see you falling I get down on my knees and pray I'm waiting for that final moment You say the words that I can't say
That’s what classical composers do. Each sections is playing their own sub songs / parts that are beautiful on their own yet layered together form something else entirely.
It's why 80s music (and movies, think anything by John Hughes) is the best, ever. I was beyond fortunate to come of age during the late 70s/early 80s. I feel pity for the youth of today.
I was in 7th grade.. the coolest chick in school hands me a cassette during lunch , I grab my Walkman and I hear this for the first time... Today I am back in 7th grade...
Just for record: for all those that did not experience living through the 80's while in your 20's...this decade was and is everything you can think or dream of how great this decade was. The combination of music, people, attitudes - harmonic convergence defined - it all came together in the 80's. Ask anyone that lived it just how great it was...
Yep . . . he's right, the 80's were frickin' killer awesome. The clothes were on point, the people were ahead of their time, and it influenced the next three decades.
totally I feel it has some sort of mystical quality like it's about life and death and the afterlife every time I see you fall I get down on my knees and pray basically every time you die, I miss you but It ends up fine in the future
+archer hmm all right well thanks for sharing buddy I suppose the intention with the song is often diffrent then the multiple perspectives about the messages of the song I'm really interested in reincarnation and simulation theory so I suppose that's why I think about song lyrics like this sometimes
I'm 39 and have had a Happy Hardcore version of this song for over a decade now without ever knowing this original existed. This is amazing and glad I finally know the original as well.

I agree with you!!!
yes they are better. Bristish
British for the punk and new wave era, the US for what's today's Classic Rock format, both mixed made it awesome

Lyrics:
Every time I think of you
I feel shot right through with a bolt of blue
It's no problem of mine, but it's a problem I find
Livin' a life that I can't leave behind
There's no sense in telling me
The wisdom of the fool won't set you free
But that's the way that it goes and it's what nobody knows
Well, every day my confusion grows
Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You say the words that I can't say
I feel fine and I feel good
I'm feeling like I never should
Whenever I get this way, I just don't know what to say
Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday?
I'm not sure what this could mean
I don't think you're what you seem
I do admit to myself that if I hurt someone else
Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be
Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You say the words that I can't say
Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You say the words that I can't say
Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You say the words that I can't say

What about the 2000’s? 🙄
Heard this song many thousands times when I go to high school, love it!
I’m only 26 and still think this is the type of music our world needs again
I'm 24 here enjoying this song
In the Synthwave genre, there are some artists that bring it back a bit, whenever they involve singers.
Most Synthwave is instrumental, though.

Smart man!!
It's never left for some of us, great to see younger generations appreciate the genius of new order
The soundtrack of my 20's!!! 1987, walking all over Old San Juan under the tropical sun, in a sundress, soaking up the sunshine, with my walkman and singing and dancing like I was the only one there. Absolute, pure, intoxicating JOY!
JOY division
New Order is a band with former JOY DIVISION members! Good catch@@MrCrowely
This is one of those classic New Order tracks that you hardly here anymore but.... it's still concerned a true classic of they're's and still sounds as fresh today as it did way back in 1986!
I left my soul in the 80's , there was magic in the air those years, hard to move on without looking back. Brazil 2024!
I left my soul in the 80's too ❤
You can go back....
This song is eternal. The melody will be used as long as man lives. A masterpiece.
My moms whos passed loved this song and i cry on her bday singing it to her . Mom your the greatest eternally. Love all moms 4ever.
Sorry for your loss 🙏
Masterpiece, 80’s best decade ever.❤️
Changed my life forever, not to mention those cool af drum beats and bass playing. Thank you Bernard, Peter, Stephen, and Gillian
This is simply a masterpiece. Agree with everyone else. Never ages. A true timeless classic.
This is one of those songs that sound really nostalgic to the point of it being melancholy for no reason even though the tune of it is so upbeat and calm.
I wouldn't say for no reason. The lyrics and guitar (particularly the outro) are very melancholic even though most the instrumentals are upbeat, that's why. Listen to any bittersweet song and there is a high chance they use the same kind of juxtaposition. It's very prevalent in 80s dance music.
@@thegrinderman1090 Basically 80s people want to be emotional but still want to dance
@@GanjaBro99 People believed in love, which was the norm and tradition of humanity compared to what we have today. Which is why it was very prevalent. All music of yore is about love, romance, disappointments, break ups. The 80's just had that up beat to dance to while lip synching love lyrics.
The melancholy hits here: "Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday?" That's the bittersweet nostalgia.
Here for a nostalgic upbeat song

One of the best songs ever made, and just makes think of how much time has flown by. Suprised it doesn’t have more recognition as it’s my favorite.
I still have all of my records from when i use to dj house parties in the 1980s and 90s. This is one of my all time favorites songs from 1987 back when i was 20 years old. Not a day doesn't go by now that i am 58 years old, that i wish i could go back to the 1980s and stay forever!.
This song is like having a Frappuccino/mochaccino with chocolate, vanilla, caramel, wipe cream, and cherry on top, switching all intensity in flavors, from beginning to end, pure genius. One of my top 3 songs in this planet. I'm a Mexican from Mexico but thank goodness came to the US, and in Utah in 1996 and this song was played lots and my best friend loved it
Olá sem querer sem intrusa, quais são as outras 2 melhores na sua opinião? Saudações do Brasil
That is good! It reminds me of getting my barback to cover my bar for 3 minutes. So I could run back into the walk in to do a big fat line. I was a bartender in 2 of the best bars on the planet during the 80s. I haven't touched that shit since 1990.
You have a good taste, man.
This song is IMMORTAL.
I am extremely lucky i was from this era.
Eterno temazo,forma parte de la banda sonora de mi vida lo amo💜💜💜💜💜
Indeed ..It is
Yup ^^ (1977 boy )
I’m very jealous!
i find myself lucky i was born in the era of now so i can find all the music from then i want without trouble
The energy in these 80s songs was so fun
This is one of my favourite songs ever. I cannot even begin to describe how I feel when the chorus plays… just wonderful
When I get married I want this song as loud as possible! Thank you New Order, you are awesome
A song about love triangle for your wedding song...hmmm
Me too!🔥
New Order honestly deserves more recognition and views
Oh yeah!
I think the reason is there was so many different artists and so much music and genres in that period. It just somehow got skipped over or pushed to the side, no room left in the rotation. Which isn’t a bad thing necessarily, people just had to dig a little harder to find.
Now it’s all same 3 types of garbage music everywhere.
I believe you are absolutely right they are the bomb they are the greatest I love to hear this song my son dedicated it to me he always said that it not reminded him of me and he would always get down on his knees and pray for me thank you Brandon I love you my son I always will I miss you since 2000 when you died
Song reminds me of when I just finished school and ready to explore life as a young man the year was 1987.They played this all the time at the dance clubs, I wish I could never leave that time, those years were the best young free happy and simple
Defines the 80s
Pure magic! Thank you New Order for this masterpiece!
The instrumental version of this was my floor routine music when I was a gymnast in college 🥰
Our cheerleaders in High School did a routine to this song with the band.
You don’t say… I remember a girl in SC that was a cheerleader named Stephanie
@@Maxumized hmmm, well I finished up college in SC and was a co-ed cheerleader 🤔
If you're listening to music like this while in quarantine, keep going!
I have coronavirus
@@raulgarcia8063 You alive bro?
One of the very few immortal songs ever written.
one of the greatest bands ever.
💯 facts
This song defines my youth. Child of the 80's that I am. I've seen them live so many times.
Me too classic my first school kiss at the school youth centre
We live 4 decades, the best 80s and 90s🎉, wishing if gimme a second chance no doub about it to back of our days the 80s
So many of today's artists owe New Order their careers. This song is perfection.
A lot of the new wave songs from the 80s are just absolute gold and they're so iconic that even to this day, they are being used as soundtracks. Lovin' it!!!😁😁😁😁
This is the most 80s thing I've ever heard, and for that I love it.
Agreed 👍, it's such real 80s music...
This song has something strange. Has hooked me for 34 years.
My mom said the same thing except she’s 37😂
SAME!!!
It’s a special moment
Lydian mode.
I'm 25 and this here is my shiiit....💜💙💜
I am beyond thankful to my parents for raising me on great music. I remember being high school in 2011 and having the same music interests as my teachers who grew up in the 80’s.
It's my favourite song of all time. It was, is and will be! I'm so glad my grandpa used to let me listen to a cassette of the Brotherhood album when I was a little boy. I loved all the songs on the album so much, but the one I looked forward to the most... I still have that tape and the Walkman itself from the late 80's, which my grandfather gave me because he didn't need it now.
Side B, the very first one is Bizarre Love Triangle. Thank you, New Order for your work and this song in particular. And thanks to my grandfather who introduced me to your great song. I love you!
Brotherhood is a curiously underrated album.
Timeless classic!! This song is sooo ahead of its time. Still relevant today.
Love this song, I have the 12inch vinyl of this song and I listened to it over and over back in the day.
It knocks spots off todays music with some notable exceptions! Even today it sounds brilliant and very contemporary. A classic .
I heard this today and it instantly takes me back to wonderful times in my youth. Carefree summers, a bizarre love triangle or two, enjoying life with friends.. what I would give to go back to those days.
Boa Batista Brasil
Amen, well said
I heard this on the radio today and couldn't believe what beauty my ears heard.
They still play this song on the radio?! I'm really missing out!
If you have Sirius XM they play this kind of music a lot (at least relatively)
I wish they use a lot of keyboards in modern music but still not as much as the 80’s. They used them a lot and really well too, the songs from the 80’s also have bttr lyrics with stories or love
🤣
U got good taste my friend
80s.. the greatest decade. Ever
Y los 28
So hard to believe how much the world has changed. This is very nostalgic for me as a kid growing up in the 90’s. The innocence of no technology is gone and it will never come back.
This song is everything. It speaks to my soul.
Same
Now 2021, still listening.....
Listening ....and still makes me dance in my kitchen. Not much changed there 🤣🤗💕
Casual drive to the store, with a smile as this classic plays... 💯 Peace All.
Hello from indonesia 👋🏻
One of the best feel good song ever made. Always gets me pumped 😁.
Everyday 😀😀😀
I remember hearing this song about a year and a half ago and I realized how nostalgic it was for me. (My mom was a teen in the 80s so she raised me on all the good stuff) Since I rediscovered it, I have been listening to it almost daily and I never get sick of it. This is the only song I've ever heard where each time I listen to it it feels like I'm hearing it for the first time.
Danced to this in the club when I was young and beautiful I'm 57 now.
EXACT SAME HERE except I'm 63 now. And I'm STILL ALIVE and thriving even though I've had a condition for 39 years that could've killed me during any of that time. Weren't those times on the dance floor some of the ABSOLUTE BEST, MOST BELOVED TIMES we've everrrrrrr had😁🤪😎⁉⁉⁉
Same .. but this song easily transports me back to those glorious days!
@@HandleChanged-z9c YYYYYYYAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSS!!! His REAL NAME IS SHITLER, THOUGH!!! And he is SHATTERING AND LOSING, AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT!!!
@@kaakampucheaexactly what I was gonna say 😊
I'm 53 and dancing a lot.....❤❤
This song never gets old. Timeless classic
30+ years and I still love this song.. To an old HS friend R.H. who said it was one of their best songs.. You were right buddy.. You were right...
Remember dancing to this in the clubs back in college!? Doesn't get any better...
Born in 1996, and I always respect the classics. We wouldn't have the electronic music today if it weren't for these guys
The difference - Eletronic was mainstream that era.
Nowadays only garbage owns the charts. Some exceptions...
It's Very sad! ☹️
They were influenced by the house and techno from the clubs in New York, Chicago and Detroit, and Kraftwerk obviously
I was 17 the first time I heard this song, I am 18 now. such a masterpiece!
lmao
Lmao²
@@Syntvx_error why did you bother even coming up with a flop of such monumental flopacity
@@snowiecore Huh(? Do u mean the comment or what? 🗿
Nice
This song wil never get old, a timeless classic for all time!
I was 18 when this was released! Still my favourite song and play it every day, never get tired of it! Love it!
Same here
As a very young clubber with one foot in the indie band scene, this tune opened all the doors and brought all the people in those scenes together and led us all into the amazing few years that changed us all forever.
80s Baby!!!! So glad I grew up in this decade.
this is original 30 years later, new order should be so much more famous nowadays, possibly a pinnacle aof pop music
Most of electronic, indie, pop music today owe their success to New Order
I know, living legends
The kids who ideated Adult Swim as being the surreal tail end to Cartoon Central was have been seeing the SUBSTANCE Anthology video while.... perhaps using a substance or too. But it's the stuff of legend!
I think New Order and JD should be in the rock and roll hall of fame ffs.
New Order owes a lot to Disco ,especially Italo Disco
Oh wow!! Totally took me back to the 80's!! Haven't heard this in forever!!! Love it!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
QUARTOU!! COM ALEGRIA FINALZINHO DE OUTUBRO...2024. 😊QUEM MAIS! ESCUTANDO ESSA RELÍQUIA 🤌🏻
Eu aqui 😍
Eu também.amo muito
Eu toda semana escuto essa e outras obras de arte dos anos 80 e 90
Eu aqui em Dezembro de 2024!
Underrated gem from the 80s. I'm a 90s kid, the magic I find is one decade earlier.
Same here. I was born in 89, grew up in the 90s and 2000s but there’s a hold the 80s has on me. It’s so amazing, the music, the movies, the style, all of it. I wish I lived through it.
Lots of respect to you! I never really fully appreciated the edgy grunge 90s compared to what came before! To be fair there is music quality all around us, but I feel like the good old days will be hard to replicate, especially since, food for thought for a fellow music lover, Led Zeppelin used to highlight pop stations :(
It's not that obvious now, but back when this came out, it was one of the first music videos to use digital editing in that way. At the time, there was nothing like this, not just musically, but also visually. We mostly saw music videos the same way, on a little television set, usually less than 17 inches or so, maybe in color, usually broadcast from a little UHF station, because the networks would never, ever play this, though MTV did. None of us had internet, we had the music when we could get it, and we had those nightclubs. This song was like a window into an unimaginable world, one that stood for so much more than the heavy metal and classic rock of the day. It was music of acceptance, kind of music of the future that we saw in front of us. But often it was just these little videos that we saw, especially if we were too young for the clubs. And this song with this video was the most important one of all. The song and the video feed off of each other, and the images that Longo chose, like that little girl running with the doll, or his iconic businessman walking, they burned into our memories in a way that regular music videos couldn't, he was (and is) an artist that has done something nonderivative, something unignorable, even as he humbly claimed that he just copied what he loved. I think that even in another hundred years, people will see this video and wonder how NO and Longo could had possibly rewritten the rules of artistic engagement as they did here.
It amazes me now, but I had met Longo at Hunter College about 30 years ago, I didn't know at the time that he was the vision behind this.
And then, there were THE SMITHS ..
Peter Gabriel?
I went to Hunter, too. Much more recently. Respect to Longo.
Alternative bands had THE best music videos bar none. I remember most mainstream groups had just concert footage, or just them lip syncing, and/or movie scenes from whatever film they provided part of the soundtrack for spliced in. Lame. Music videos should add another dimension to songs IMHO.
MTV belongs in history like Roman classical statues. Important but overtaken
The music is pure energetic happiness, juxtaposed against lyrics of uncertainty. I’ve loved it always.
LYRICS:
Every time I think of you
I feel shot right through with a bolt of blue
It's no problem of mine
But it's a problem I find
Living a life that I can't leave behind
But there's no sense in telling me
The wisdom of the fool won't set you free
But that's the way that it goes
And it's what nobody knows
well every day my confusion grows
Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You say the words that I can't say
I feel fine and I feel good
I'm feeling like I never should
Whenever I get this way
I just don't know what to say
Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday
I'm not sure what this could mean
I don't think you're what you seem
I do admit to myself
That if I hurt someone else
Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be
Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You say the words that I can't say
Obrigado 😁😁
THANK YOU💜🙏
¡Gracias!
♥️♥️🖐️
Thanks!
Born in 89, just missed the 80s. Love this song, always come back to it.
That’s what classical composers do. Each sections is playing their own sub songs / parts that are beautiful on their own yet layered together form something else entirely.
One of the greatest songs of all time! I remember dancing to this in college. So awesome!
I love this tune more and more as I get older. I'll be 74 and BLASTING IT LOL
An absolute classic 😝
👍🏽 great.
Definitely a tune to be blasting!! Good for you!! Blast away!
Me.2
It's 2022, this song is almost 40 years old and still better than anything on the popmusic charts.
It's why 80s music (and movies, think anything by John Hughes) is the best, ever. I was beyond fortunate to come of age during the late 70s/early 80s. I feel pity for the youth of today.
one of my favouirite songs ever) together with "slave to love" and "lovesong" are always in my heart since 2010-s
@@jeffreywolfe1 this isn’t even an opinion clear fact
💯
This song is so eighties, love it 😍 the 80s is with no doubt the greatest decade in music ❤️🔥🔥🔥
Very pop upbeat music, very dark lyrics. This is what makes New Order so good.
New Order son de lo mejor!!! Crecimos con su Música!!! Saludos desde Colombia!!!
I was in 7th grade.. the coolest chick in school hands me a cassette during lunch , I grab my Walkman and I hear this for the first time... Today I am back in 7th grade...
What a moment
Did you marry her?
New Order Brotherhood 1986
New Order Bizarre Love 💘 Triangle 🔺️1986
I was in grade 7 as well. I remember at our graduation dance I handed them this tape to play, great memory.
The most beautiful song I've ever heard
Just for record: for all those that did not experience living through the 80's while in your 20's...this decade was and is everything you can think or dream of how great this decade was. The combination of music, people, attitudes - harmonic convergence defined - it all came together in the 80's. Ask anyone that lived it just how great it was...
You arere so correct. I am one of the lucky ones who spent my 20's living through the 80's.
Amen, my friend. Amen.
QBCzar and politics was a distant thought
True... but I turned 20 in 1992... this was still so futuristic and full of possibilities. So glad I was young then too!
Yep . . . he's right, the 80's were frickin' killer awesome. The clothes were on point, the people were ahead of their time, and it influenced the next three decades.
You can release this song now and it wouldn't seem outta place.... This song is TIMELESS!!
totally I feel it has some sort of mystical quality
like it's about life and death and the afterlife
every time I see you fall
I get down on my knees and pray
basically every time you die, I miss you but It ends up fine in the future
+mercurialmagictree Not according to songfacts. www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=8794
+archer hmm all right well thanks for sharing buddy
I suppose the intention with the song is often diffrent then the multiple perspectives about the messages of the song
I'm really interested in reincarnation and simulation theory so I suppose that's why I think about song lyrics like this sometimes
Lol yeah it would
Of course it would lmao it's amazing and from a country that isn't Japan
Heard it for the first time in 1987 on the radio, I still love it.
I'm 39 and have had a Happy Hardcore version of this song for over a decade now without ever knowing this original existed. This is amazing and glad I finally know the original as well.
When I was kid, I would wait by the radio just to hear this song. This is my favorite song ever written.
When I was a kid, I had a mixed tape - of only Bizarre Love Triangle front and back! lol
