    Love Joy Divison. I work in Manchester in England, and I sometimes pick up the free newspaper to kill the journey home on the train. When Tony Wilson died a couple years back, they had a big feature about his funeral. When I read the bit about them playing Atmosphere, I had a tear in my eye. :(

    My fave JD song has to be Novelty.

    What you gonna do when the novelty is gone...

    You're all on your own now - don't you think that it's a shame
    But you're the only one responsible to take the blame

    one of the best intro in the song......
    "...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
    "..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."

    This is my favourite clip of Joy Division. I have this video at home in England. May be worth a few quid by now.

    I like Joy Division and I think their music is not comparable with Depeche Mode. Like Nirvana, they published only a few albums, but they remains unique.

    I always enjoyed NIN: Dead Souls and had no idea these guys did the original. :oops:

    I'd definitely get the two albums. They have a million compilation albums out and the only one I have is Substance - this is where you'll find Dead Souls and Love Will Tear Us apart.

    Great so see this thread, can't believe I've managed to miss it so many times. It makes me happy to see love for Joy Division. One of the greatest, if not the greatest, band to come from these shores.

    This is the only cover I've come across of Love Will Tear Us Apart that I like.

    The secret to a happy ending is knowing when to roll the credits
