There

4. New Order performing "Blue Monday" live on Top of the Pops, March 31, 1983 (the song was originally recorded in 1982):
..."with its rapid fire drumming, its space invader Exocet effect, its requiem vocals and its echoes of Spaghetti Western soundscapes, 'Blue Monday,' in retrospect, sounds like the perfect dance track for a pointless war.""Fuck me, is that what it was about!
And here's me thinking that it were about Barney [Bernard
Sumner, New Order's vocalist] not wanting to get up and go
to work."
--Peter Hook, New Order bassist
"'Blue Monday,' it's about nowt really.
I change the words all the time, anyway, as I sing them live...not
sure I can even remember the original phrases. It's just a
fucking pop song, mate."
--Bernard Sumner, New Order vocalist
"It went on to become some sort of a classic song...It's not really a song, actually, it's just like...I don't know--I don't know what it is. I don't really think of it as a song, it's just a long, a very long--it's an epic, a dance epic, and that kind of went down very well."
- Stephen Morris, New Order drummer
How
does it feel to treat me like you do? Those
who came before me |
I
see a ship in the harbor Now I stand here waiting... I
thought I told you to leave me |
