    Amazingly talented. Such a huge loss. But his work will live on forever. He had just as much influence on my musical tastes as Kurt Cobain did.

  • Finally bought a 'Best of' compilation to give myself
    some home-schooling in Joy Division 101.
    I too notice the Depeche Mode vibe, though I won't complain
    'cause Depeche Mode rocks my quiet little world.
    Cheers.
    'Cause you don't give blood and take it back again.

    don't compete; coexist

    what are you but my reflection? who am i to judge or strike you down?

    "I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank." - Barack Obama

    when you told me 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em'
    i was thinkin 'death before dishonor'

    I'm such a big Joy Division fan, I named my son after Ian Curtis.

    Now that I've realized how it's
    all gone wrong
    Got to find some therapy -
    this treatment takes too long
    Deep in the heart of where
    sympathy held sway
    Got to find my destiny before
    it gets too late
    "...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
    "..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."

    I only recently got into this band (the movie brought them to my attention - GREAT film!), but they were very VERY good. I've often thought that I'd love to hear Pearl Jam cover 'Twenty Four Hours'.
    Wrigley Field (Chicago) 7/19/13, Pacific Coliseum (Vancouver) 9/25/11, ScottTrade Center (St. Louis) 5/4/10, Sprint Center (KC) 5/3/10, Wachovia Spectrum Arena (Philadelphia) - 10/31/09, Key Arena (Seattle) - 9/22/09, Key Arena (Seattle) - 9/21/09, United Center (Chicago) - 8/24/09, United Center (Chicago) - 8/23/09, Colonial Center (Columbia, SC) - 6/16/08, The Vic Theatre (Chicago) - 8/02/07, Pepsi Center (Denver) - 7/02/06

    Actually come to think of it, I just might be a puddle full of detriment.

    I'm a JD fan as well & I saw your profile message on Facebook today - 'she's lost control' & wondered if you were referring to JD. I watched 'Control' the movie for the 5th time just last weekend. :-)

    Made the fatal mistake,
    Like I did once before,
    A tendency just to take,
    Til the purpose turned sour,

    Strain, take the strain, these days we love,
    Strain, take the strain, these days we love.

    Yeah, the only mistake was that you ran away,
    Avenues lined with trees, strangled words for the day,
    Yeah, the only mistake, like I made once before,
    Yeah, the only mistake, could have made it before.

    Strain, take the strain, these days we love,
    Strain, take the strain, these days we love.

    And the only mistake, led to rumours unfound,
    Led to pressures unknown, different feelings and sounds,
    Yeah, the only mistake, like I made once before,
    Yeah, the only mistake, could have made it before.

    Shadowplay is one of my all time favorites. I nearly cried at the end of Control and I'm not usually a movie crier.

    I love Joy Division! Ian had epilepsy like me that came from no where and he was scared of having seizures on stage! He actually was mistaken for dancing crazily while he was having them and he was listening to one of my favourite albums when he died, The Idiot -Iggy Pop.
    I love Dead Souls, one of my favs. I thought New Order were pretty good too, as good but still pretty cool. 8-)

  • A change of speed, a change of style.
    A change of scene, with no regrets,
    A chance to watch, admire the distance,
    Still occupied, though you forget.
    Different colours, different shades,
    Over each mistakes were made.
    I took the blame.
    Directionless so plain to see,
    A loaded gun won't set you free.
    So you say.
    We'll share a drink and step outside,
    An angry voice and one who cried,
    'We'll give you everything and more,
    The strain's too much, can't take much more.'
    I've walked on water, run through fire,
    Can't seem to feel it anymore.
    It was me, waiting for me,
    Hoping for something more,
    Me, seeing me this time,
    Hoping for something else.
