Joy Division - Disorder

Artista: Joy Division

Canción: A Means To An End

Letra:

A legacy so far removed,

One day will be improved.

Eternal rights we left behind,

We were the better kind.

Two the same, set free too

I always looked to you,

I always looked to you,

I always looked to you.

We fought for good, side by side,

Our friendship never died.

On stranger waves, the lows and highs,

Our vision touched the sky,

Immortalists with points to prove

I put my trust in you.

I put my trust in you.

I put my trust in you.

A house somewhere on foreign soil,

Where ageless lovers call,

Is this your goal, your final needs,

Where dogs and vultures eat,

Committed still I turn to go.

I put my trust in you.

I put my trust in you.

I put my trust in you.

I put my trust in you.

In you.  In you.  In you.

Put my trust in you, in you.

David Bowie’s rare cover of ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’ by  Joy Division.

A chance meeting in 1983 had David Bowie, Bernard Sumner and Peter Hook chatting away over beers in the Kings Arms in Salford. “…So we were all there just having a laugh and we joked that he should come n have a jam with us, then next minute - well, it was the next day actually, but i didn’t expect he’d definitely come by - and we were in the practice rooms and we were playing Love Will Tear Us Apart and I was like, f%$k we’re playing Love Will Tear Us Apart with David Bowie singing, this is crazy. We never released it - Bowie took a recording of it, and just layered some more vocals on for fun, sent it back to me…”

FUCK

OH MY GOD. YES.

Play this in a club and watch the eldergoths all collapse to the floor.

MAN. MY HEART.

Why is the bedroom so cold?

Turned away on your side…

Is my timing that flawed?

Our respect run so dry…

No wonder I like Interpol.

Well yes, they were one of the most recognizable names in post punk and after the death of Ian Curtis they became New Order, which I would say helped define the New Wave sound
