Andrew Collins:
Blue Monday may have history on its side, True Faith the video, Fine Time the Balaeric cool, and World In Motion a rare sense of fun, but Regret is the crowning achievement of a little band who could. A good deal of Joy Division’s eternal appeal lies in the struggle – the quest to hew magic out of limited virtuosity – but mastering their instruments did not rob them of their personality.
Good article on my favourite New Order song.
and just like Blondie's Maria, this is one hell of a comeback song.
Remember when Blondie came back with this song in 1998?
A song so fantastic it could be compared to anything on Plastic Letters, Parallel Lines and Eat To The Beat?
Good times.
I suspect this won't be the last post I make regarding the return of Juanita / Howling Bells.
The whole bloomin' show, no less.
