New Order - Blue Monday on a Tuesday

in music •  7 years ago  (edited)

Someone created a Disco Tag for today and I just ignored it....

Sad it is for Tuesdays (the Disco thing) as I have to contribute a band with a song that includes "Monday" - shame on me - I am bad! Today is a day anyway that I would exchange against any other day. Also not sure my section would be a fit for Disco - but I do not care as it is a fit for my style.

New Order!

Was following that band from England when they got founded and had their first success as that time independent band with no record label deal. This was not common as you had to have such a deal to be played i radio or being able to sell your work - a to has changed. So follow me for some details around the band New Order.

I will keep this post short and simple. I have the feeling the longer a post is the less feedback I get and I am not trying to post only long posts to get votes. So let me present you a summary from Wikipedia more or less - and show you some other great tracks they created - one of them was the official supporting song for the Football Team of Team England! You can guess a hard one to out this for a German lol!

New Order are an English rock band formed in 1980 by vocalist and guitarist Bernard Sumner, bassist Peter Hook and drummer Stephen Morris. New Order were formed in the demise of their previous post-punk band Joy Division, following the suicide of vocalist Ian Curtis. They were joined by Gillian Gilbert on keyboards later that year. Their integration of post-punk with electronic and dance music made them one of the most critically acclaimed and influential bands of the 1980s.
While the band's early years were shadowed by the legacy of Joy Division, their experience of the early 1980s New York club scene saw New Order increasingly incorporate dance rhythms and electronic instrumentation into their work. The band's 1983 hit "Blue Monday" became the best-selling 12-inch single of all time and a popular club track. In the 1980s, they released successful albums such as Power, Corruption & Lies (1983), Technique (1989) and the singles compilation Substance (1987). They disbanded in 1993 to work on individual projects, and reunited in 1998. In years since, the band has gone through various hiatuses and personnel changes, most prominently the departure of Hook in 2007. They released their tenth studio album Music Complete in 2015.
The group were the flagship band for Manchester-based independent record label Factory Records and its nightclub The Haçienda. Their distinctive album sleeves and "non-image" (the band rarely gave interviews and were known for performing short concert sets with no encores) reflected the label's aesthetic and their long-term collaboration with designer Peter Saville.

New Order is a huge part of my musical upbringing. I still have a framed copy of the original 12” of Blue Monday above my bed. Ace track!

I love this song with all my heart. It takes me right back to wonderful times. But the video makes it. My ex and his son were very entertaining and talented with this one.
