Is it blasphemous to prefer New Order to Joy Division? There's something about the mood in most JD songs that doesn't really click with me. A lot of songs sound like they're trying a bit too hard to be dark.

Well today it's all about JD, i like one New Order album, and would 'Ceremony' be considerd a cover since it was oringnally a JD and the last song Ian ever wrote?.

^ Not their best, but arguably their most important.



This is their best for me.
Good home made vid too.
Watch it to the very end.
