I feel like it's the little things that keep us going. My job sucks. My girlfriend cheated on me. I live in a shitty, noisy apartment. But I get strength and happiness from the small things in life. The sun. The rain. Helping an elderly person. Saying hi to random strangers. Holding the door open for someone. It makes me feel good.
I lost a best friend to an intentional Heroin overdose, and we both attended the Tom Savini , Special Makeup Effects Course. I was crushed , when I got the call , that Billy had died. I miss him , so much . We use to listen to Joy Division every day. We both worked in the film industry.
Now 40 years since their last concert, Ian's suicide and the band's subsequent breakup. Even the fact they were only around for 3 years doesn't diminish the legacy or influence they continue to have. However mental health still remains a stigma 40 years later. It's ok not to be ok, don't be afraid of speaking to your family or mates. Love Will Tear Us Apart at some point in our lives, but it will also bring us closer together.
When Keanu Reeves' said that this was the one song he could listen to for the rest of his life, I had to re-visit it. Haven't heard this in such a long time.
I am 56 now and this song and others from joy division follow me since ever. First in a cassette, LP, then CD now in an iPhone and my Tesla. Love it forever.
From a certain point of view my life sucks, in my 20s with not a lot money, balding , not popular by any means, but I feel like I am so lucky to have a rich appreciation of music and art and a deep fascination for the things that most would consider trivial. It’s music like this that makes me feel lucky that I’m alive, and that no matter where I am in life, I will always be able to find fulfillment in the little things
Dude, hang in there. I was balding throughout my twenties. It hurt my self esteem. But I kept the faith, worked hard at what I loved, and eventually married a beautiful, loving woman. She had been in bad relationships with unfaithful men. She was attracted to my honesty and character. She knew I wouldn't cheat and never did. Now we are old but she is still gorgeous to me. Never give up and keep trying til you find the right one.
I totally get it. My life is shit right now but I find joy in music. I had to find an escape in my adolescent years and beyond. Music and books were my solace. I don't have everything I want, but I have everything I need. ❤
Hi, check this for another example of tortured soul bringing hopes and Joy... Inspired by Coronavirus crisis. Kad & his son Ian together. th-cam.com/video/wq4-wcT8mVI/w-d-xo.html
Lot of people thinks to joy division music as sad music.. i don't.. there is a difference between quality and crap, that makes you feel happy for only one second and at last, all the good feeling desappears.. and doesn't make you think as you listen to it.. i love jd music because it makes me travel whit my emotions.. exploring myself.. this is what makes music eternal. ❤
I’m sure his wife felt tortured when she found out that Ian cheated on her for years with a reporter but was possessive and meanwhile she couldn’t be with other men. Why do people speak on him as being a good person just because he has epilepsy??
When routine bites hard And ambitions are low And resentment rides high But emotions won't grow And we're changing our ways, taking different roads Then love, love will tear us apart again Love, love will tear us apart again Why is the bedroom so cold? You've turned away on your side Is my timing that flawed? Our respect runs so dry Yet there's still this appeal That we've kept through our lives But love, love will tear us apart again Love, love will tear us apart again You cry out in your sleep All my failings exposed And there's a taste in my mouth As desperation takes hold Just that something so good just can't function no more But love, love will tear us apart again Love, love will tear us apart again Love, love will tear us apart again Love, love will tear us apart again
His wife. His mistress. His band mates. Everyone close to him didn’t know how depressed he is. Not until they read all the lyrics after he passed did they realize all their songs was his cry for help. Rip Ian.
Big Country's Stuart Adamson was in a similar dark place. His band mates didn't know until late on in the bands career. Tragically ended his life in a Hawaii hotel room. Big loss.
If you ever have the chance to read this bands autobiography. Do so. It truly is one of the most darkest, human emotional and alive experience you will ever get from such a work of art. RIP Ian Curtis.
I've read many books on Joy Division and you're right there really is a darkness too his life. I think the man was a genius. The film "Control" in my opinion was really well done. It was a sad loss when he passed away and although New Order are a great band I often wonder what other great songs Ian Curtis could have given us. "Love Will Tear Us Apart" in my opinion has to be one of the greatest songs of all time. No matter how many times I've heard it it still sounds good every time and to be honest I rarely only listen to it once at a time I have to press repeat a few times, which is the sign of a good song.
Getting old is great, just think about the people that didn't even made it this far from your private life, but I can agree to be old can suck sometimes, that is just life. xD
I'm now 55 yrs old. When Ian left the earth as we know it I was so innocent and nieve. I loved/ love this band. I couldn't wrap my head around Ian's death. I, to this very day, miss him dearly. I'll never forget you.
Lol....you're right, that drummer is really working it. He went to the Clem Burke school of drumming. The singer went to the Roxy Music school of singing.
So timeless. Young people are still finding inspiration from Ian Curtis and his music close to 50 years on. I think it would have been very comforting to him to know that.
My younger brother committed suicide last weekend by overdosing on something. He was found with headphones on, presumably listening to something. This is his youtube account. He made a playlist containing 6 songs that was edited the day he passed. This is one of the 6 songs. With the method he used, he was dead after about 30 minutes, probably unconscious around 12 minutes. I like to think that it was peaceful for him with his music on. I love you Darius, I'll miss you everyday for the rest of my life
I’m terribly sorry for your loss. From experience, be and do what he can’t. Your bother chose a different path. Leave an indelible legacy. You matter more than you’ll ever realize.
@@melissalove2463 You're not old, I was 18 when this came out. It hit me hard, and it has never stopped hitting me. Great music helps us transcend time.
The empty room and Ian’s initials being the biggest on the closing/opening door always have felt so haunting to me given that by the time this video started playing on MTV in the US Ian was gone…
it’s absolutely terrifying how less than a month after this was filmed Ian took his own life. Nobody in this video looks very energetic or even happy. It’s like the trauma that was waiting for them was truly there.
Just enjoy this magic music that has affected so many people in a positive, happy way. So good that you enjoy this fabulous music, nothing will ever replace it, we can ONLY enjoy what was. Simply magic.
The comments seem to have been reset, so I'm going to post the lyrics for whoever may want them. *LYRICS* When the routine bites hard And ambitions are low And the resentment rides high But emotions wont grow And we're changing our ways, Taking different roads Then love, love will tear us apart again Why is the bedroom so cold Turned away on your side? Is my timing that flawed, Our respect run so dry? Yet theres still this appeal That we've kept through our lives Love, love will tear us apart again Do you cry out in your sleep All my failings expose? Get a taste in my mouth As desperation takes hold Is it something so good Just can't function no more? When love, love will tear us apart again
When the routine bites hard And ambitions are low And the resentment rides high But emotions wont grow And were changing our ways, Taking different roads Then love, love will tear us apart again Why is the bedroom so cold Turned away on your side?

On this day, 36 years ago. A young dead soul who existed on the best terms he could made a fatal mistake searching for another day. He had the spirit but lost the feeling and gave us everything and more but the strain was too much and couldn't take much more. He felt it closing in, day in, day out, day in, day out as love tore him apart. Still touching from a distance, his heart and soul will never fade a away from the shadowplay.
This has always been my all time favourite song. Nothing has ever come close. It was just the song- it held no memories like some songs. Recent events in my life have given this song new meaning for me after 40 years. It’s almost prophetic now 😢
I Love the segment at the end where the vocals end and the music kind of carries on for a minute longer. It always gives me feeling inside my chest. Almost like its trying to touch my heart, or perhaps my soul. Thank You for this music.
The title of this song is written on Ian Curtis's grave. There was a boy at my university who committed suicide. The very last thing he posted on Facebook, was this song. He was a friend of one of my closest friends. I didn't know him, but I wished I stopped him. Probably I couldn't have, but still... This was 2 years ago. I couldn't listen to Joy Division ever since.
Unfortunately when people reach the end and it's on their terms, they can't be stopped, not really. Some will stick around if you can talk them out of it, but ultimately if they want to go, they will try again and again until they succeed. Some people just feel they need to go and there's nothing that can stop the pain they are in. No matter how hard you try to talk them round, the pain they are in is too much and they just want it to stop and taking their own life is the only way out. The only thing we can do, is try to help those we know to be feeling like Ian Curtis did, like your friends friend did, try to get them the help they need. That's all we can do.
If it was as unexpected as you say, there would have been nothing you could have done. Life is full of what ifs. Focus on helping someone else you can see is in a similar position. You can't undo the past but you can mould the future.
If you analize, the performance of Ian was from his deepest part of the heart, he closed his eyes and sticked his mouth to the microphone. A very emotional person.
In a little over half an hour Ian would have left us 44 years ago Wish he could have got the help he needed. He'll never know how much he is missed and how he is now regarded as one of the greatest musical icons. RIP Ian , son , brother , husband and father.
Joy Division were well beyond their time. There are very few bands whose melodies and music stir such emotion. Never tire of hearing this beautiful song.
Ian Curtis was buried in Macclesfield Cemetery, in Cheshire, England. His grave bears the inscription "Love Will Tear Us Apart", the title of one of Joy Division's most famous songs, which poignantly reflects his emotional state leading up to his death. His passing remains a deeply tragic moment in music history, and his work continues to influence countless musicians and bands to this day.
in all the Star Wars films, they have a character LAMELY say "i've got a bad feeling about this"....in the laziest spots....as Fan Service. In Star Wars 9, they have Rey and the evil Kylo kiss after battle......and I said "THAT's where you use the line, ya dummies! She kisses him and then says 'i have a bad feeling about this'!" ROLL CREDITS.
he had a wife and young baby that he left at home whilst he travelled, during his travels he cheated on his wife with a French lady, he couldn't choose between the two this lead to depression. Plus he suffered from epilepsy (which the people around him didn't understand, they just though he was stupid) so he killed himself.
When routine bites hard, And ambitions are low, And resentment rides high, But emotions won't grow, And we're changing our ways, Taking different roads. Then love, love will tear us apart again. Love, love will tear us apart again. Why is the bedroom so cold? You've turned away on your side. Is my timing that flawed? Our respect runs so dry. Yet there's still this appeal That we've kept through our lives. But love, love will tear us apart again. Love, love will tear us apart again. You cry out in your sleep, All my failings exposed. And there's a taste in my mouth, As desperation takes hold. Just that something so good Just can't function no more. But love, love will tear us apart again. Love, love will tear us apart again. Love, love will tear us apart again. Love, love will tear us apart again.
Awesome, I'm late to the Joy Division party but impressed. Deep, emotion filled music with a haunting yet comforting sound. This is why I love TH-cam. Too young at the time to appreciate this music but the TH-cam time machine let me briefly relive that era.👏🏾
hiiii , if u like this song check out ( wait a minute by the impures ) is another good underrated af song, a hidden gem i think.. .sssssssssssssssssssss .vvvvvvvvvvvvv .vvvvvvvvvvvv . ., vvvvvvvvvvv . . ., vvvvvvvvvvv . . ., s
this brings back so many memories from the past, sometimes to the point of melancholy but you gotta turn it around and let it bring you hope for what's to come
I've always loved this song. Most recently this song makes me think of my friend Elyse who recently passed away. I hope where she is, she's sleeping peacefully.
ha ha ha...you can't be serious. even you ignore depression. every day of your life. how many times can you honestly say, that a friend called and said, hey wanna hang out...and you say, oh i don't know...because you knew that friend was depressed and went on and on about their problems to the point where it was bumming you out, so you said you would but you had things to do. your cousin calls and wants to know if you want to go see a movie. no...not really, so you tell them you already had other plans...etc. a homeless person is in the street yelling at himself. you're in your car, you drive by hoping he doesn't do something crazy to you or your car. he has mental issues, yet you won't let him sleep on your porch...but you really do care, it's just that....................a person comes into the emergency room surrounded by cops, strapped to a gurney, because he was grabbing people and threatening people. you look away, hoping he doesn't involve you. you stay far enough away to not get hurt, but close enough to see the action, when they wrestle him off the gurney. you could have went over to ask if he needed a friend. could you call someone for him to talk to, does he need to eat something. try to help calm the situation....not you. he's gross and greasy. you can't touch something like that. it's not always the kid down the street or the pop star. it's people you see every day in your life and do nothing to help them. i know you don't try to help. i've seen you, and your family and your friends. i'm that 'gross thing' that needed your help. you weren't there. get it? of course not. it makes you feel better to shout slogans you can chant... 'never ignore depression'....while you, yourself, ignore depression.
@@patcoats he was kidding. Those of us who continually fight depression give ourselves breaks. It may be an addictive behaviour, drugs or real progress.
I almost screamed out of happiness when I heard this yesterday in the final The Grand Tour episode! Plus seeing James May wearing the Joy Division t-shirt was the cherry on top! I'm so glad they did this in the finale. A brilliant little titbit for the send off of the show.
42 years ago today. Imagine how amazed he would be if he learned his music would be listened to by tens of millions of people. Rip Ian! We still miss you to this day. ;(
There is something in the essence of this song that is so heartfelt and so real, that anyone from whatever background can connect with it. If you have loved and lost, this is what it feels like - tragic, because it hurts so much, but beautiful,, because you know that nothing will ever quite feel the same again... You will never reclaim that moment, the moment where you were there together and nothing will tear you apart, but you will never forget it either....
40 years ago today I got the call at my office TJM Records & Practice Rooms that Ian Curtis had killed himself . This video was filmed only a month or so in their practice room in our building on Little Peter Street in Knott Mill before Ian's death . R.IP. Ian x
@@tonyajsmith8829 Because you can? ..say anything... No the question is not whether Can you, or anyone, say any old thing. It's a request for some kind of logic to support what you said. I thought you knew something I didn't about the cover artist's motives..but you don't. I don't know the cover artiists motives either and i'm not going to txt him to find out. But knowing him, he loved the song and gave it his all in shining a light on it.
Got to see Joy Division at London University on Friday 8th February 1980, with Killing Joke as the support act. Both bands were superb, but I remember thinking after seeing Ian's performance that he would have a nervous breakdown eventually. He appeared to be living out those intense songs on that evening ..... Little did anybody think that it would end in such terrible tragedy, on May 18th. Thirty six years have passed in the blink of an eye, but Joy Division's legacy still remains perfectly intact. However, Ian and Debbie paid a terrible price for it.
Holly Mimnagh Holly, you would have been highly impressed.Next month,Ian would have been sixty. Sadly,we will never know what he could have achieved......

The sun. The rain. Helping an elderly person. Saying hi to random strangers. Holding the door open for someone. It makes me feel good.
Hipe you're ok. You'll find a new girlfriend and a better apartment. Stick with it ;)
You learned the secret! Everything comes at a steep price though but you got it.
Hope you won't think twice about reaching out if ever you need, even if we're strangers we can be here for eachother 👌🏼
Your life goes where your mind leads it. Focus on positive outcomes. Don’t dwell on what is wrong!

But his musical influence lived on through his band members when they formed new order.
Now 40 years since their last concert, Ian's suicide and the band's subsequent breakup.
Even the fact they were only around for 3 years doesn't diminish the legacy or influence they continue to have.
However mental health still remains a stigma 40 years later. It's ok not to be ok, don't be afraid of speaking to your family or mates.
Love Will Tear Us Apart at some point in our lives, but it will also bring us closer together.

And resentment rides high
But emotions won't grow
And we're changing our ways, taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Why is the bedroom so cold?
You've turned away on your side
Is my timing that flawed?
Our respect runs so dry
Yet there's still this appeal
That we've kept through our lives
But love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
You cry out in your sleep
All my failings exposed
And there's a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold
Just that something so good just can't function no more
But love, love will tear us apart again

My younger brother committed suicide last weekend by overdosing on something. He was found with headphones on, presumably listening to something. This is his youtube account. He made a playlist containing 6 songs that was edited the day he passed. This is one of the 6 songs. With the method he used, he was dead after about 30 minutes, probably unconscious around 12 minutes. I like to think that it was peaceful for him with his music on. I love you Darius, I'll miss you everyday for the rest of my life
My condolences..
Sorry for you loss. What were the other 5 if you don't mind answering?
Sending love and healing vibes your way. Grief of that nature never really goes away, but it gets easier. 💛
Sorry for your loss
I’m terribly sorry for your loss. From experience, be and do what he can’t. Your bother chose a different path. Leave an indelible legacy. You matter more than you’ll ever realize.
39 years ago to the day, we lost one of the greatest musicians of all time at only the start of his career.
Rest well, Ian. We miss you everyday.

31 on day 23 and still listen
This song gives me chills every time...
Rip Ian Curtis 💔
Yes....chills...nostalgia
The empty room and Ian’s initials being the biggest on the closing/opening door always have felt so haunting to me given that by the time this video started playing on MTV in the US Ian was gone…
it’s absolutely terrifying how less than a month after this was filmed Ian took his own life. Nobody in this video looks very energetic or even happy. It’s like the trauma that was waiting for them was truly there.
excellent observation! u are 100% correct
He actually tried to kill himself for the first time a few weeks before shooting this video
:-(
Ian does look like he’s suffering in this video.
@@michele2855 What is "good singing" ma'am?
Art is subjective. You might not vibe with it doesn't mean its "not good"
I can't get over how young he was when writing this, its so experienced. Poor guy
He suffered a lot.
Perfect. Absolutely perfect.
love is not perfect
Ivan Rys WTF
The song Ivan, the song!

My mom really liked this song but now I miss her... today I put it on and my neighbor came knocking on my door to tell me to turn up the volume 🤪
As Bono said, “the voice of an Angel”. One of the greatest songs ever written imo.
A compliment from a tuneless hypocrite like fucking Bono is REALLY worth having (not).........
Bono is a c*nt though, so why would anyone care about his opinion?

Great song. All time classic. Voice of an angel might be a little much tho. Lol

One of the most important songs ever written , it’s purely timeless
I discovered joy division only this year and im 19. Thank you Ian and rest in peace wherever you are.
Just enjoy this magic music that has affected so many people in a positive, happy way. So good that you enjoy this fabulous music, nothing will ever replace it, we can ONLY enjoy what was. Simply magic.
Stick with the oldies 👍

*LYRICS*
When the routine bites hard
And ambitions are low
And the resentment rides high
But emotions wont grow
And we're changing our ways,
Taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again
Why is the bedroom so cold
Turned away on your side?
Is my timing that flawed,
Our respect run so dry?
Yet theres still this appeal
That we've kept through our lives
Love, love will tear us apart again
Do you cry out in your sleep
All my failings expose?
Get a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold
Is it something so good
Just can't function no more?
When love, love will tear us apart again
Balthor thank you very much. =)
Balthor fukker
Here is K-town respect to the mf
when routine bites hard x
At some point in our life, each of us understands the meaning of this song
Joy division is the band that should play for eternity
When the routine bites hard
And ambitions are low
And the resentment rides high
But emotions wont grow
And were changing our ways,
Taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again
Why is the bedroom so cold
Turned away on your side?
Is my timing that flawed,
Our respect run so dry?
Yet theres still this appeal
That weve kept through our lives
Love, love will tear us apart again
Do you cry out in your sleep
All my failings expose?
Get a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold
Is it something so good
Just cant function no more?
When love, love will tear us apart again

U really looks like soo Sad!!!
This one hit hard

Well,we know that negative and negative equals to positive
Relate
I am 60 now and this song makes me still feel the angst and unsure teenage feelings. Great song.
Cold and depressive, but somehow beautiful and necessary.
I love that
'necessary' so true
Death in fire;
yet are you a phoenix?
Rise ye from the ashes?
Rise ye triumphant through the adversity meant to destroy ye?
Possibility exists.
yes! hauntingly
true!
What's not to love and respect by this timeless masterpiece. A highly talented bunch which was torn apart way too early.
On this day, 36 years ago. A young dead soul who existed on the best terms he could made a fatal mistake searching for another day. He had the spirit but lost the feeling and gave us everything and more but the strain was too much and couldn't take much more. He felt it closing in, day in, day out, day in, day out as love tore him apart. Still touching from a distance, his heart and soul will never fade a away from the shadowplay.
beautiful
utter drivel written as bollocks doggerel.
People who commit suicide aren't heroic nor should they immortalized.
+Tan We should sympathize with people who commit suicide and understand their suffering rather than immortalize or shame them.
This has always been my all time favourite song. Nothing has ever come close. It was just the song- it held no memories like some songs. Recent events in my life have given this song new meaning for me after 40 years. It’s almost prophetic now 😢
I Love the segment at the end where the vocals end and the music kind of carries on for a minute longer. It always gives me feeling inside my chest. Almost like its trying to touch my heart, or perhaps my soul. Thank You for this music.
Yep 😪😪😪
Ian curtis RIP so sad good singer sadley missed fave song up there with god ian
Yes. I feel it too.

The title of this song is written on Ian Curtis's grave.
There was a boy at my university who committed suicide. The very last thing he posted on Facebook, was this song.
He was a friend of one of my closest friends. I didn't know him, but I wished I stopped him. Probably I couldn't have, but still...
This was 2 years ago. I couldn't listen to Joy Division ever since.
Damn... :(
Unfortunately when people reach the end and it's on their terms, they can't be stopped, not really. Some will stick around if you can talk them out of it, but ultimately if they want to go, they will try again and again until they succeed.
Some people just feel they need to go and there's nothing that can stop the pain they are in. No matter how hard you try to talk them round, the pain they are in is too much and they just want it to stop and taking their own life is the only way out.
The only thing we can do, is try to help those we know to be feeling like Ian Curtis did, like your friends friend did, try to get them the help they need. That's all we can do.
Maybe it gave him comfort, as it does me.
If it was as unexpected as you say, there would have been nothing you could have done. Life is full of what ifs. Focus on helping someone else you can see is in a similar position. You can't undo the past but you can mould the future.
So sorry rip
Here from Grand Tour ❤
With Captain Slow wearing an Unknown Pleasures t-shirt
Homenaje a Joy División en The Grand Tour!!!
“I love beautiful melodies telling me terrible things.”
Highly recommended: The Smiths - There Is A Light That Never Goes Out
also highly recommended: another sunny day - 'you should all be murdered' (and actually most of the smiths' songs but they've already been mentioned)
Tom waits!
If you analize, the performance of Ian was from his deepest part of the heart, he closed his eyes and sticked his mouth to the microphone. A very emotional person.

So true. The only band who’ve got close imo is Interpol
Joy Division #1 keep them alive!!!
Beautiful ❤
No, they were of their time.
Ian Curtis was buried in Macclesfield Cemetery, in Cheshire, England. His grave bears the inscription "Love Will Tear Us Apart", the title of one of Joy Division's most famous songs, which poignantly reflects his emotional state leading up to his death. His passing remains a deeply tragic moment in music history, and his work continues to influence countless musicians and bands to this day.
I dig ur comment.
The ultimate song to play at a wedding
It's the perfect song a divorce lawyer's add.
in all the Star Wars films, they have a character LAMELY say "i've got a bad feeling about this"....in the laziest spots....as Fan Service.
In Star Wars 9, they have Rey and the evil Kylo kiss after battle......and I said "THAT's where you use the line, ya dummies! She kisses him and then says 'i have a bad feeling about this'!" ROLL CREDITS.
No. That marriage wont end well

...I feel Ian's depression when i see and hear him again. So sad. There was never a happy sound in his voice. We all need love. So did he. Bless him.
Annemarie Lesage you should listen to one of our new singles if you’re into post-punk! Would appreciate it thank you 🖤
he had a wife and young baby that he left at home whilst he travelled, during his travels he cheated on his wife with a French lady, he couldn't choose between the two this lead to depression. Plus he suffered from epilepsy (which the people around him didn't understand, they just though he was stupid) so he killed himself.
He had love. A chemical imbalance is what he suffered from.
Annemarie Lesage stay strong. We, as a collection of people are here for you

Theres nothing like unknown pleasures and closer, Joy Divison was a watershed in my life, one of the bands of my life. Ian Curtis lives eternally.
When routine bites hard,
And ambitions are low,
And resentment rides high,
But emotions won't grow,
And we're changing our ways,
Taking different roads.
Then love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.
Why is the bedroom so cold?
You've turned away on your side.
Is my timing that flawed?
Our respect runs so dry.
Yet there's still this appeal
That we've kept through our lives.
But love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.
You cry out in your sleep,
All my failings exposed.
And there's a taste in my mouth,
As desperation takes hold.
Just that something so good
Just can't function no more.
But love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.
Love, love will tear us apart again.
Some of the best lyrics of all time.
One of the greatest songs of all time. Rip Ian Curtis
Awesome, I'm late to the Joy Division party but impressed. Deep, emotion filled music with a haunting yet comforting sound. This is why I love TH-cam. Too young at the time to appreciate this music but the TH-cam time machine let me briefly relive that era.👏🏾

Happy birthday Ian you would have been 68 we all love you
Yet there's still this appeal that we've kept through our lives.
Cover more joy division please!!
A song from personal experience.never ignore depression.
And addiction which lead to depression 😐
And severe epilepsy, cheating on his wife who was pregnant and drug use. Yeah, he was screwed up not just depressed
I ignore depression at least forty times a day!
ha ha ha...you can't be serious. even you ignore depression. every day of your life. how many times can you honestly say, that a friend called and said, hey wanna hang out...and you say, oh i don't know...because you knew that friend was depressed and went on and on about their problems to the point where it was bumming you out, so you said you would but you had things to do. your cousin calls and wants to know if you want to go see a movie. no...not really, so you tell them you already had other plans...etc. a homeless person is in the street yelling at himself. you're in your car, you drive by hoping he doesn't do something crazy to you or your car. he has mental issues, yet you won't let him sleep on your porch...but you really do care, it's just that....................a person comes into the emergency room surrounded by cops, strapped to a gurney, because he was grabbing people and threatening people. you look away, hoping he doesn't involve you. you stay far enough away to not get hurt, but close enough to see the action, when they wrestle him off the gurney. you could have went over to ask if he needed a friend. could you call someone for him to talk to, does he need to eat something. try to help calm the situation....not you. he's gross and greasy. you can't touch something like that. it's not always the kid down the street or the pop star. it's people you see every day in your life and do nothing to help them. i know you don't try to help. i've seen you, and your family and your friends. i'm that 'gross thing' that needed your help. you weren't there. get it? of course not. it makes you feel better to shout slogans you can chant... 'never ignore depression'....while you, yourself, ignore depression.
@@patcoats he was kidding. Those of us who continually fight depression give ourselves breaks. It may be an addictive behaviour, drugs or real progress.
37 Years ago today :(
Rest in Peace, Ian.

I almost screamed out of happiness when I heard this yesterday in the final The Grand Tour episode! Plus seeing James May wearing the Joy Division t-shirt was the cherry on top! I'm so glad they did this in the finale. A brilliant little titbit for the send off of the show.
42 years ago today. Imagine how amazed he would be if he learned his music would be listened to by tens of millions of people. Rip Ian! We still miss you to this day. ;(
There is something in the essence of this song that is so heartfelt and so real, that anyone from whatever background can connect with it. If you have loved and lost, this is what it feels like - tragic, because it hurts so much, but beautiful,, because you know that nothing will ever quite feel the same again... You will never reclaim that moment, the moment where you were there together and nothing will tear you apart, but you will never forget it either....
- So haunting.
- the emotion is very raw.
- their sound matches the exact feeling.
- art done right.
bro u are in almost every good music video
Just a band that have changed music history
And its recorded on a potato.
it is haunting, eerie, I would say, yet beautiful.

40 years ago today I got the call at my office TJM Records & Practice Rooms that Ian Curtis had killed himself . This video was filmed only a month or so in their practice room in our building on Little Peter Street in Knott Mill before Ian's death . R.IP. Ian x
i feel your pain!
I love him
I had always wondered if this was in Macc - thanks bud - I'm now trying to think in me head where though lol
@@tonyajsmith8829 Why do you say that?
@@tonyajsmith8829 Because you can? ..say anything... No the question is not whether Can you, or anyone, say any old thing. It's a request for some kind of logic to support what you said. I thought you knew something I didn't about the cover artist's motives..but you don't. I don't know the cover artiists motives either and i'm not going to txt him to find out. But knowing him, he loved the song and gave it his all in shining a light on it.
Got to see Joy Division at London University on Friday 8th February 1980, with Killing
Joke as the support act. Both bands were superb, but I remember thinking after seeing
Ian's performance that he would have a nervous breakdown eventually. He appeared to
be living out those intense songs on that evening .....
Little did anybody think that it would end in such terrible tragedy, on May 18th.
Thirty six years have passed in the blink of an eye, but Joy Division's legacy still
remains perfectly intact. However, Ian and Debbie paid a terrible price for it.
That's such a great memory of yours, I bet. I wish I could have seen them live. It would have been incredible. Thank you for sharing :-)
Holly Mimnagh Holly, you would have been
highly impressed.Next month,Ian would have
been sixty. Sadly,we will never know what he
could have achieved......
+Rob Jones It's a massive shame and a huge loss that he isn't around the keep making wonderful music. He was truly a great person.
lucky you
Lucky you
Is sad to know that this video was made some months before Ian Curtis' suicide. He was a really talented guy and Joy Division was a great band.
nail..head..correct
Ahh geez but its fucking sad innit ?
robin williams, kiddo. not robert.
Sadly it wasn't months. It was made just 20 days before he died. BTW he would've turned 60 today.
I didn't know that, Gohan Chan. Ian Curtis was a great musician and died so young.
The song is perfect - in every conceivable way. Perfect.
This is a song I could listen to over and over. The words can have different meanings each time they are heard. Great jam!
