Lyrics
Walk in silence
Don't walk away, in silence
See the danger
Always danger
Endless talking
Life rebuilding
Don't walk away
Walk in silence
Don't turn away, in silence
Your confusion
My illusion
Worn like a mask of self-hate
Confronts and then dies
Don't walk away
People like you find it easy
Naked to see
Walking on air
Hunting by the rivers
Through the streets
Every corner abandoned too soon
Set down with due care
Don't walk away, in silence
Don't walk away

"people like you find it easy"
RIP Ian, you deserved better
I hear you beautiful, such profound lyrics... "people like you find it easy" & "don't walk away in silence" i can't listen enough to Ian RIP.
@@a.c.h3792 He really deserved REAL FRIENDS and not that scoundrel band mates.
Ernesto Ribeiro he didn’t like the world he saw. He didn’t want a part of it anymore
@@ernestoribeiro2226 what's wrong with his friends? They didn't know what to do and he kept drinking and he shouldn't and they tried to make him stop. He prob would have not killed himself if he didn't drink
@@ShadowPlay1919 He was severely depressed. I don't think the drinking had much to do with it. People didn't really understand mental health back then, so there wasn't much his band mates could have done.
This isn't a song, this is a feeling, a memory, a way of life, this is art.
Hell yes. Ian was a godamn genius. Too good for this world.
this is pretentious
Yes this is feeling🥹
Im going to listen this in my father's grave company with votcka and joints 👻👻
@@nodarkthings Really? harsh
@@panosvrionis8548 If I could I'd join you
I wish I could tell Ian Curtis the impact he still has on peoples lives over 40 years later. The music he gave the world is truly special. Thank you Ian.
I think that's how many of us who are touched by his music feel. Just let him know, however futile it may be but just let him know.
He didn't do it on his own ....
He changed music forever
I discovered Joy Division later in life. Glad I found it.
i wish that too ;;;; to let him know that he is loved for so many ppl around the world...
My wife is terminally ill with MND. Just recently her health has taken another step along the journey to the end. I am with her every step of the way but over the last 5 years it has taken a toll on me mentally. I have always loved Joy Division from when they started (I am 60 years old). I find myself listening to this quite simply beautiful yet sad song every day now. It seems to be helping me along the route my wife is walking into the light whilst I walk into the dark.
I'm so sorry for your pain
Recently shepherded my wife of 37 years thru her mental illness, into whatever is awaiting her soul in the next world. We are there for our loved ones to the lonely heartbreaking end.
Always leave yourself a path back to your own happiness…
I’m 65, lost her 9 months ago, and I continue to work on my own life and happiness, as I’m sure that’s what she would have wanted…and what I need.
Stay strong for yourself.
Thank you for sharing your experience. Tony you are not alone, as you can see by the comments, many of us here are in pain. On the other hand, music makes it possible for us to try and be stronger everyday. Remember to find a minute for yourself, a minute where you can take care of your own mental health. We can help our loved ones only when we allow ourself moments like these.I wish you a great day, D
So sorry Tony. Stay strong.
Stay strong because she would only want you to be happy
I met Ian Curtis on a train from Bolton to Manchester once. In about 1978 Nice chap.
Amazing...respect.
You're a very lucky man
+Malcolm Coghill what a pleasure, much respect
+Malcolm Coghill My adopted sister got a kiss and and an autograph . They played Blackpool in July 1979.
I have been fortunate to live with great Spanish musicians, but breathe the same air as IAN CURTIS, for me are big.
Think about all of the younger kids first finding out about Joy Division because of the shirt and Strangers Things. That's pretty rad. Welcome all young people. You have good taste in music. Follow the path.
Yeah dude I've always loved music like this and I think that stranger things really got some amazing music that's what really exposed me to the wonders of the music like this.
there is no good taste in music. its all opinion you know.
Seriously, I can't stand the modern definition of music. It hurts. But this, this music to my ears.
- Some damn 12 y/o
(Though, I heard about Joy Division through other means.)
meanwhile i came from skate 3
Its only when they wear the shirts and the you ask them "name three songs" and they say "love will tear us apart"
And thats it. Its just so triggering
Today in 1980 you decided to leave this world. You gave us your heart and soul, you gave us everything and more...
RIP Ian Kevin Curtis! You will Never ever be forgotten❤🔥
🙏🏻
He was the same age as my son is now. Far too young x
As a schizophrenic with clinical, crippling depression, this song has been my lifeline for only the past couple of weeks. It's keeping me held up, keeping my pieces together. I'm only 24, but... I really enjoy Joy Division. Thank you, Joy Division, and May Ian Curtis' soul rest at ease. 🌸
Hang tight to life for the all of us like you please.
you are loved and your life is cherished. Hang in there ❤️
@@cairoabelard9672 thanks so much 💙💙
Hope You ok🤗
Same here, was confronted to the worst a week ago, hang on tight, we'll get through this !!
As a lifelong sufferer of depression that ‘people like you find it easy’ line has always struck a chord.
@@Dice69aooooww Tbh Adam, so many of us have lived with it for so long that it has become our worldview, our daily look at life :/ And with no cynicism, I'm glad people like you find it easy...
Although I'm a stranger to you we could always talk to each other, if you wanted.
Yeah and Also Cobain's lyrics "I wish I was like you....easily amused" I've found that to be so true in my life and especially on RUclips
@@mpreiss7780 Kurt and Ian were very similar. I wish both of them were still alive.
@@Christian-97 True, and many many more that ended life....not just famous people.
"People like you find it easy"
That line really resonates with me. As a person with social anxiety issues, I always wonder how people can have so many friends and be so carefree with each other. It's never been like that for me. It must be nice for them.
MyLittleDiscolite people like you find it easy to pass judgement on people without understanding their problems.
I feel ya. I'm the only person in my school with less than 2 friends. The only place I feel comfortable, is when I'm reminded by the band that brought me happiness, then hearing it in Stranger Things was cool, and I made a new friend off of that. This song actually improved my life if you think about it. I hope it will do the same for you.
MyLittleDiscolite With the words you choose to share, they may just hate you too :)
Yes i .agree
i feel u
My friend Helen had this played at her funeral. I almost giggled through my tears, because we'd discussed it when we last saw one another. I miss her still.
So sorry for your loss. R.I.P
So Sorry 😢
I'm very sorry for your loss. Those happy moments we have with the people we love are so important to remember. I'm sure your friend Helen would have loved to see you smile, even when you were crying
You were the best person there then, smiling at funerals isn't weird, neither is a little laugh, some people show their sad different
@@esther-corinna She would certainly have laughed along with me. I was so glad her children played it.
I hate cancer.
There’s something incredibly soothing about this song, even though it’s quite dark. Anyone who’s struggling as well, don’t walk away ❤
Great words friend 🙏
Oh I just wrote, "Such a soothing, calming, pleasing melody," upthread.
I struggle often and have this on on repeat more often than not for something to hang on to.
okay ❤
This rains down on you. What a masterpiece.
I love how "Control" (movie) ends with this masterpiece. It's really moving.
Just shut up and enjoy life :) No need to be an idiot
+Computer17Blue how very nice of you Mr Perfect 💚 your language is very rude though 😳 bye xxxx
+Juliana Cuellar Perfectly fitting and haunting choice to that wonderful, if heartbreaking, ending. The chimney with the black smoke... samantha morton yelling for help... beautiful.
Jacob Zembower Exactly! It's the perfect heart breaking ending
+Juliana Cuellar moving me back to my better music
My dad worked with Ian at Macc job center. Lovely but troubled bloke. He helped people with disabilities get jobs which is hard now, let alone then. Beautiful music and in many ways a beautiful man, fragility is underappreciated.
Cool to know that! I did the same job at Beswick Job Centre in Manchester in the '80s.
That's true he liked that job but it is in his wife book which I just read. So it is common fact not yours.
cruiserscreek Chin up darling don't beat yourself down you may have more potential thanks you give your self credit for5
Lucky bloke to work with what would become a musical legend what id of give to of met him
I worked on the jobseekers allowance signing section at the jobcentre in berkshire too
People, don't let this this song upset you, don't let it get you down. Let it make you strong. And let it make you stronger. Let it wash over you and then near the end, let yourself grow with the song. Rise up. Rise up strong and rise up to be the strong person you have been made to be. It is not about despair. It is about strength and being strong for the future.
To all the teenagers discovering Joy Division...you'll never stop listening again
So trueee, happening to me currently
A lot of fans and musicians talk about how sad it is that Ian died so soon and all the art he could of created. I think it's more tragic that he was not able to achieve the peace he so badly wanted. So sorry for the pain you were in, Ian.
If this song was the only thing he ever created, he would still be a god amongst men.
He got his peace after his dead
Damn, your comment hit me in the feels, beautiful & true.
I think he did precisely what he set out to do. People harp on longevity not because they are in love with life, but because they are afraid of death. Living to be a hundred doesn't mean anything in itself. A life can be long and empty or short and full or somewhere in between. Ian's life was extraordinary, and that's what really matters.
The man was a victim of ailments of body and mind
I was named after the lead singer and when i was little my father would play this song for me so i would go to sleep i guess I've always had a sort of connection to this band not because my name is Ian but because I feel like I'm always in a corner trying to figure out what the hell is wrong with me and joy division's music just tells me it's okay not to be okay because there's only so much you can take as a human being
Many times we can't help but feel our very existence is wrong. I grew up having that feeling and I oftentimes find myself asking "What's my role in all this?". I'm 46 now. I don't know the answer, but I keep hearing "Don't walk away in silence". I understand I have to face things, move forward and voice my mind, either through words or art. You're not alone.
"Joy Division's music just tells me it's okay not to be okay" I created my account to give you a thumbs up for that comment.
Mark Brown thank you so much I can’t tell you how much that means to me
you nailed it with the last sentence Ian!
Hi Ian I saw joy Division in Bradford supporting the Buzzcocks when I was 15, I was glued to the spot I couldn't believe what I was hearing, I'd never been like other kids and even up to a few years ago I always felt different, never happy but never totally depressed. I'm sat in bed typing this at 56 years old sat next to my new wife, my first wife who's expecting my first child, keep going it's alright to be who you are, we're all different but we're never alone. Good luck buddy
Lost my dad to suicide when I was 3. He was a drummer, in a band called a little death. Joy division was his favourite band. He wanted me to have his massive record collection. His limited edition joy devision album is worth a lot of money now but I can't bare to part with it ❤
I'm genuinely sorry for your loss. Don't feel guilty about not being able to part with the album. Go forward, do good things...honor your dad. All the best to you:)
Don’t ever part with it. It’s priceless because it was a part of your dad and now you. ❤
I've been struggling from a very severe anxiety and panic attacks for a few years because my heart was broken a few times and because I'm very poor and can't take care of myself, and there is war where I live, and other dangers. Sometimes all I feel is pain, day after day, and my body has started to react to it. All I'm clinging to is faith. All that is helping is faith, bits of love of from people who care and yes, maybe music. When I remembered this song I thought yeah, it might help, it might actually give me something. That's why I'm here
❤
Sometimes faith is all we have in the dark we see the light far away it might be but it’s there
probably one of the greatest songs ever written
probably one of the greatest comments ever written
Yes. Full stop
sure
@@rubberplantsandwich definitely not
@@rubberplantsandwich no way. lol. that's an asinine assertion.
I went to the O2 Arena last night to watch New Order. The lights went off and for 10 minutes people were walking out and leaving to catch the train. Suddenly, the lights begin to rotate and focus on the stage… they all come back. Those of us who stayed got the privilege of watching Joy Division perform three of their songs, with this powerhouse of a beauty at the start… it’s a moment I’ll always keep dear in my heart.
I love how you called them Joy Division and not New Order. When they perform these songs together they become Joy Division again
Don't leave until the lights come back on.
so jelly. what songs did they do?
We're seeing them in 3 weeks and I'm counting the days down
Must have been fantastic !!!
People who don't know will say Love Will Tear Us Apart was Joy Divisions best track. People who know are reading this.
RIP Ian Curtis (July 15, 1956 - May 18, 1980), aged 23
You will be remembered as a legend.
39 years ago today. RIP Ian. You are loved and missed.
I was born in 91, but this group specially Ian was a master mind..
@@marliengarcia2425 😂 yeah right kid, tell us something we don't know 😂
@@marliengarcia2425 Well said by someone young and born long after the genius that was Ian Curtis , I always wonder what he would have gone on to do, had he lived just like Buddy Holly and John Lennon .
Divider of Joy RIP Ian, Legend

...Obama, Clinton (Bill/Hillary)!
lost my brother to suicide when i was 15. i am now 29 and the pain is still as present as ever. this song takes me to another place. chills everywhere...
I'm sorey
Me too, and my brother was inspired by Ian Curtis. Big love to you
was this his song or something?
yo cuando tenia 14,,ya desde mucho
I'am a huge 80,s fan ohhhhh hell yeah 👍
Listening to "Atmosphere" for 2 days. Still I don't know what is this emotion that I'm feeling right now...🌄🌧️
One of the most misunderstood men that ever walked the earth. He meant no harm to anyone. He will never be forgotten.
Clinically depressed for all of my adult life. I am closer to 60 than I am 50. Another decade almost gone. I wish Ian were alive, so that I could walk with him....to tell him that overcoming the urge is worth every last second of every breath.
kindred spirit here. Some people have a hard time on this earth. ☮️💕
hey, please do stay stong bcs yr lives matter! 💪🏻
Clinical depression is a life-long illness. It's always in the corner of your mind, lurking, waiting for the opportunity to creep in. I hope you don't walk away, Daniel.
i hope you're doing okay 🥺💕
Thanks dude..shall JD live on in the hearts of others and truely feel freedom.
I don't care if anyone came here because of Stranger Things. It brought people to a powerful song, written by the very talented Ian Curtis, who took his own life after battling a double whammy of depression and worsening epileptic seizures. It brought you to a great video by Anton Corbijn (who also directed Control, an excellent film & I highly recommend it). There's nothing wrong or bad about being exposed to great music or art, no matter how you came across it.
DKitt amen!
what is "Stranger Things" ?
congrats to u and thanks to share, coz just u know what this means, i am 44 but Joy Division is for just a little ones as u r, and still on, is a pure cosmos understanding. thanks and success ever mate, for u and all natures around, keep on, go on.
Sao Paulo-SP BRAZIL
exactly. i dont think ian would be happy if people would talk downwards to newbies. good music is for everyone
The doomer meme brought me here, and i am forever grateful :')
My favorite band of all time. Deep. Dark. Real. RIP Ian Curtis. My forever legend.
Hello how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here
R. I p. = The ....rev Ian paisley pattern
One of the most chilling, but beautiful songs ever written. Hauntingly factual of the life Ian was battling, but his legacy lives on.
Hello how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here
I still have this on vinyl. From 1980. Yeah, I'm old.
eggsngrits I wish I did
Me too
Actually I bought STILL when it came out but already had UP and CLOSER on cassette.. My older friends (I was 17 at the time) taped me a lot of stuff.. killing joke, a certain ratio, dead kennedys, the sound, throbbing gristle ecc ecc..
I have it on 12 inch, She’s lost control B side.
I have so many older albums on vinyl - something magical about the sound that vinyl has that is lost on cd.
RIP IAN... greetings from Warsaw to all Joy Division fans
rest in Paradise
aww
Warsaw was the band's first name :)
rip in peace
Rip in peace?
For me, this song is very therapeutic... I think this is the reason, why I always listen to them in my depression. Their music does not blind you, or try to be ignorant about your negative feelings... Except, it gives you kind of understanding, and feeling, how Ian and so many other young people suffered, and you are not alone. Despite his inner turmoil, he always tried to convince listener, not to walk away in silence...
I can't imagine what kind of masterpieces he would have made later on in his life
I don't know what came over me, but I just heard this song for the first time in my life today. And it made me cry.
More people needs to listen to Joy Division
gsotoaz I always cry when I hear this
i love it, it is just so good.. but I'm A MAN, AND MEN DONT CRY!!!! (I'm acc 13 so...)
Jasper Leigh real men do cry m8 ??
gsotoaz I envy you, I would love to hear this for the first time again. Such impact. Peace.
Ian obviously had a very tender soul. During his short life, he gave more then he could handle.
My take on Ian's life is that he was not a rockstar, but a poet who never asked for fame, only to be understood.
Joy Division could never be more then what it was. His demise was decided the day Joy Division became what they were.
+Erik Brandhorst Have you read his wife's book? Seems like he always intended to commit suicide. He made her vote Conservative. He had an affair with a Belgian woman and was pretty heartless with regard to his wife. I think he was a great artist but he wasn't a very tender soul. More like a pretty selfish , very gifted, troubled person.
i have not, thanks for the insight, i will have to check it out!
+Erik Brandhorst Its called 'Touching from a Distance' by Deborah Curtis. 'Most books about rock and roll cling greedily to the myths of the subject; this one tears them apart.' Ian Rankin
+argieav watch the movie too. fantastic! and it also shows exactly the same. very troubled person, brilliant artist and maybe because of that not the best husband.
gjv
I'm a man who is now, 57 years old.
Joy Division have been a permanent fixture in my life, since I was 14.
Even now, when I watch Control for the umpteenth time and this incredible song plays out at the end, I have an uncontrollable [sic] urge to burst into tears.
That is the power of Ian's lyrics, and of his story.
It's also testimony to the power and majesty of Joy Division's music. ❤ 4:32
Gonna be 57 in July, currently working on finding every album I had in my collection back in the day, this is on my list:)
I wish you luck in your findings! :D
As a person who has also suffered depression this hits so hard but at the same time it makes me feel a little less alone. This song really has something that I can´t explain. Thank you, Joy Division.
One of the most hauntingly beautiful songs ever written ....period.
Totally agree.....cry every time I listen to it. Breaks my heart.
I couldn't Say that Better, hauntingly beautiful 💜
I haven't hear of period.
@Heretic 😂😂😂 That comment might get lost on a lot of people, but it gave me a laugh!
Definitely
this played at my uncle's funeral. they were his favourite band
Spooky Faye this was played at my dads funeral such an emotional song
💛
Sorry for your loss. Don't worry I am a young person and shall continue to share this song and the band for as long as I live. Joy Division's legacy will never die ✌️
good taste xx
All I think of when listening to this song was 13 year old me watching Control at 4am and crying at the end. 😢 I was also very depressed then, 7 years later I still feel the same but I’ve finally understood why. The why is honestly both a blessing and a curse. I don’t think I’ll be able to watch that movie ever again. So being that age and watching that movie really moved me because the whole way through I completely felt all the emotions Ian felt down to my core. Rest easy Ian we miss you and I hope you’re now at peace. If you’re struggling know that you’re not alone, after so many years of pain I’m still struggling too. I’m here with you💚💚💚 Depression is like waves, one hits you so hard you think you’ll fall off the boat but other days they feel like ripples. Please stay here not for others but for yourself because I believe even people like us can come a long way and achieve amazing things for us and that can eventually inspire other people like us to continue on. Sending everyone hugs ❤️
Walk in silence
Don't walk away, in silence
See the danger
Always danger
Endless talking
Life rebuilding
Don't walk away
Walk in silence
Don't turn away, in silence
Your confusion
My illusion
Worn like a mask of self-hate
Confronts and then dies
Don't walk away

Naked to see
Walking on air
Hunting by the rivers, through the streets, every corner
Abandoned too soon
Set down with due care
Don't walk away in silence
Don't walk away
R.I.P. Ian Curtis Don't walk away in silence
Lets make a promisse and eveyone pass the music Joy Division gave us to the next generation
We don't need to, when they have good taste they discover them for themselves....as has my 17yr old son.....😉
Miguel Vila if only! The world would be more understanding and more in touch with their emotions, and others
I will. Amen x
the one's who stick around
Great idea...
Ian Curtis (15 July 1956 - 18 May 1980) died on this day 40 years ago. The legacy is incredible.
Amen
So he was only 23
tomorrow is his 41st death anniversary
This song cuts me like a knife everytime I play it. We ALL suffer depression. I pray for Ian. I wish his soul peace. I discovered that the Velvet Underground has a Nothing Song that could be the forefather of this sad ballad. Take care of your heart, every one.
Tears in my eyes : The lyrics of “Atmosphere” are both abstract and deeply emotional, with themes of isolation and melancholy. Ian Curtis’s distinctive baritone vocals lend the song a haunting quality that resonates with listeners. The music itself is characterized by its atmospheric and ethereal quality, driven by Peter Hook’s basslines, Bernard Sumner’s guitar, and Stephen Morris’s drumming.
“Atmosphere” is a testament to Joy Division’s ability to create a mood and atmosphere that draws listeners into a world of dark, emotional intensity. It’s a song that has left a lasting impact on the music world and is often cited as one of the band’s most powerful and enduring compositions.
I turn on Joy Division for a good dance or a good cry every once in a while. Ian and the boys knew.
I do the same. And right now I can barely function.
Hey man how's the fight club going.. oops
@@marlonbrandoseyes1443 not so well
it is good literally for everything
I like to have a good dance AND a good cry simultaneously.
Man so many thoughts. I hope that wherever you are, you found peace Ian. God bless you.
nachospimp I'm sure he did
Unfortunately I lost my girlfriend 4 and a half years ago and she was never in to Joy Division until we met. Then once we got together she heard all my albums and began to like them. She passed way 4 and a half years ago,so I chose the music at her funeral and the song that was played out at the end was Atmosphere and it was the best send off my darling Patricia could have ever hoped for. Great music back in the late 70's early 80's that will never be forgotten.
denzil4 sorry for your loss there...😞🌹
Thank you for your for your kind message, it means a lot. I know this might sound a bit morbid but I make a point of playing 'Atmosphere' on our anniversary each year (13th Aug) and on the 21st of March which was the day she sadly passed away. We were together for 7 and a half years and never argued . Thanks again for the kind message and have a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year.
denzil4 sending hugs and love and peace.
Being schizophrenic and bipolar I find this song playing in my head when I'm locked in my hospital room gives me a smile that only ME knows about.
If only Ian could see that his music lives on. "people like you find it easy... it gets obscene... walking on air". who can't relate to that. yeah, i know it's "naked to see" but i prefer it gets obscene. Ian was only 23 years of age when he died. But look what an impact he made.
Happy 65th Birthday Ian. Your time on this world was too short, but the legacy you left is huge. That we are still listening some 30 years later is testament to your brilliance. Thank you
look up this song - faceless humming by the impures
is
a good indie tune underrated af.

March 1980 Derick 42yrs now , but re- re-released in 88 , still a great song all these years later .
Thank you partner
Mark my brother loved this song he died tragically and it always reminds me of him god bless bro 🇮🇪🇮🇪
This song makes me feel so melancholy and upset through no association at all, I can't imagine what it does to you man. RIP Mark
mynameisjoejeans thank you my bro
Same with my dad and his favorite cousin, Michael. Michael died on a horrible motorcycle accident a few years back.
Waivium thank you brother
Sorry for your loss mate , RIP your Bro.
From a scouser
I am not a sufferer, but you dont have to be to appreciate a line like ‘people like you find it easy’ - it just helps you understand - totally brilliant, almost (if not) perfect, in every aspect..
This is simply a track of pure beauty.
Joy Division were the perfect band 🖤
Amen.
I'm here because of Joy Division.
Huh... Like when peoples was listening to Ramones - Blitzkrieg Bop because od Tony Hawk... -_-
Indeed! :(
I actually find it cool that people discover music they like,however they discover it ! My love for punk music came from playing Tony Hawk games ! How people learn about artists is not important, the important thing is that they love and share that music they love ! :)
why else would you be here?
Scroll down, my newbie friend! x
One of the most beautiful pieces of music ever created. The synths can make you cry.
true
+Jay Hunter Stewart Lee gag.
You are right
The bass line makes me cry.:'(
Can confirm. Synths were one of the best things from the song
joy division makes me feel joy.
anything can move you. anything can tell or teach, but joy division makes you feel. it reminds us of our spirit.
This song is something from Ian Curtis's soul. The constant drum beat to me feels like the endless monotony of everyday life. Waking up every morning and getting out of bed to face a world that hates you.
"Your confusion, my illusion, worn like a mask of self hate. Confronts and then dies" this line really hit home for me. It makes me think of the anxiety of just normal social interactions and the constant facade of happiness to mask the self-hate.
This song is not a cry for help, like some might say. This is a goodbye, a final echo in the darkness.
Goodbye, Ian.
41 years today. RIP IAN.
@Alexander Dobinson He was a bloody legend indeed! Listen to Joy Division every day still!
He's still young to me
This song always brings me to the verge of tears.
this is literally killing me right now...
You should let some tears come out... it’s a sense of relief. Feels good. Try it
Then you are a stronger person than me, I cannot listen to it dry eyed. Beautiful song.
Gone too soon. A beautiful gifted man. I'll never walk away from his music. ❤️❤️
This Song is so dark and mystic, it gives me chills every time.
One of the most beautiful sad songs in music history. RIP Ian Curtis and Martin Hannett.
This song is chillingly beautiful
Precisely!
Wow! You're right. Similar sound, tune and emotions. Thanks for the heads up.

One of the greatest songs of all time. Absolutely harrowing.
my grandma used to sing me this song before going to sleep. i can't forget her beautiful voice
You'll be NEVER forgotten ! R.I.P. Ian Curtis
I just realised how much the Cure's Disintegration album owes to this song!
Thread Bomb Robert is a massive fan.
Totally
Listen! You’ll see how much Curtis owes to Lou Reed. ruclips.net/video/bkG9BKgDvNI/видео.html
@@nutty9096 lol Both legendary bands. Fuck off will ya?
@@nutty9096 I understand the singing voice isn't for everyone, but you only looking at The Cure's late albums (which are their most commercial peak; less depressed). Try earlier albums like Pornography, probably their darkest album. Might grow on you.
First heard this song in 87 as a 13 year old kid. Didn't know anything about Joy Division or Ian Curtis, but the song resonated straight away. A true artist who didn't hide his vulnerability or pain. Those people are rare.
Epilepsy got me struggling every day but Joy Division and Ian’s lyrics help so much
Lyrics
Walk in silence
Don't walk away, in silence
See the danger
Always danger
Endless talking
Life rebuilding
Don't walk away
Walk in silence
Don't turn away, in silence
Your confusion
My illusion
Worn like a mask of self-hate
Confronts and then dies
Don't walk away
People like you find it easy
Naked to see
Walking on air
Hunting by the rivers, through the streets, every corner
Abandoned too soon
Set down with due care
Don't walk away in silence
Don't walk away
Apparently the song is about his wife.
@@happysh_t4202 the lyrics are literally in the description
GIVE ME MONEY o shit
Thank you
Growing up and living with both anxiety and depression and hearing a song like this really resonates with you, truely one of a kind and ahead of it's time
Same her
It gets harder btw
Ahead of its time? People have been writing eloquently about depression for as long as they have been writing.
Yep. Same with me..
Me too 💕
❤️
Brill song , never walk away in silence. Curtis you will never be forgotten. I'm nearly 58 now , this so perfect god bless you.
There's literally no words that I can find or think of that how this piece here makes me feel. Not one. Thank you Curtis and gang. I real masterpiece here.
Can never read these comments without getting chills and crying. I love you all ❤️
Same ❤ 💔
Dedicated to my late father, played at his funeral, I think about you every day, i'll see you again before too long.
I miss this musical genius. My hope is... he has found peace and serenity in the Heavens above.
His musical creations still resonate with us... decades later and likely shall for eternity.
I suffer from depression and songs like this make me realise I am not alone. Despite having a good support network, some good friends and family that feeling of isolation is still there. Few people understand and fewer want to help but there are many of us out there on this long dark Train. It's a life long battle, not many ups and a hell of a lot of downs - once it is with you it's a constant dark companion ready to strike you at a moments notice. Killing your happiness, sense of belonging and hope, feeling like an eternal black hole from which there is no escape. RIP Ian and many others such as you who could see no other way out.
I fucking cried when this song played at the end of Control. It was like Ian's farewell song to the world.
I didn't know what the + and - represent when I first saw it on their compilation but now i do. It represents the positive and negative feelings Ian had at that time. He was about to embark on a successful music career but he was also feeling very afraid. He did not know what to do with the two women in his life and he was also very aware of the fact that he could die at any moment from epilepsy.
+clzm90 too bad they couldn't give Ian some Charlotte's web cannabinoids(proven to reduce seizure and epileptic attacks). They didn't know anything about his disease back then.
This song is so beautiful it almost makes me cry
it has made me cry many times
I understand your feeling...
The term that comes to mind is "achingly beautiful"
You can really hear his Jim Morrison influence on these ones. R.I.P. Ian Curtis. Legend never forgotten.
It breaks my heart whenever I listen to joy division. It's just amazing. Poor Ian. How sad what a waste of such talent. Much love to you all.
The angelic ethereal sounding synth combined with the baritone voice of Curtis singing those words is incredibly powerful.
I am 15 so i never had a direct connection to Joy Division, but i am very grateful that this amazing music can live on through fans so people like me can experience this masterpice instead of some overpruduced pop crap.
Thank you.
Good lad
Thank you there is still hope for the younger generation
attaboy jonas ;)
No one cares
Evil Sooty Modern music shouldn't repulse you. There has always been vapid pop. There will always be bands pushing through with more.
“People like you find it easy”
It’s the other way around for me. It’s not that I see other people being happy. It’s that I’ve gotten to the point where it doesn’t even hurt anymore, it’s easy. I don’t cry anymore, I just breathe and accept the pain, and keep going.
Woke up today and this song was playing in my head. My friend from another city loved joy division. Sadly, he killed himself while chatting with me almost 2 years ago. Showing me this band was the greatest gift he ever gave me. Goodnight, dear friend. I hope you found the peace you were seeking. I love you.
Almost 40 years listening this song , like awaiting , and , in some way , preparing for what we are living now. From Naples, Italy , in quarantine .
Joy Division and Bauhaus... Cocteau Twins, Dead Can Dance, The Cure and Talk Talk are the best. They made my Day since the 80'ies.
Add the Talking Heads and the Smiths and im with you
don't forget the jesus and mary chain, also echo and the bunnymen
Wow...can"t agree more...66 years old and never get tired of listening to all the music mentioned! And Kate Bush...
This is one of those songs which get better every time you listen to it.
Ian Curtis, 44 years gone today. R.I.P.! ❤
My brother just recently took his life, i didnt play this song in his funeral because its a secret Ode i play in my mind for him... He walked away in silence for the last 7 years of his life... Thats how long i hadn't been in his presence, i raised him to the best of my abilities and i feel like i lost a part of my soul with his sudden passing, i wasnt left a letter, heck he did it in such a manner that he was just going to be another "john doe" but ancestors definetly did me a solid with that miracle and i was informed on halloween night that my brothers body was at the morgue. Im so sorry brother... I wish i could of fixed it all for you... I wish i could of erased all the memories of your pain and suffering... You deserved a GOOD life... I miss you ALWAYS
God bless xxx
You will dedicate your Love for him eternally..... ♥ Blessings dear....
So sad mate….think of his memory with love and sin* your song
i’m sorry to hear that,
may he rest in peace.
Thank you all so much for the good hearted wishes, i had "friends" that ive known for over 18 years and they didnt even reach out after my brothers passing. It means a lot coming from people i dont even know, may you all be blessed every single day 🙏💚
People dont get that when this was released it was so fukin in a league of its own, zero peers. Changed music 4evr ..thank you joy division
My Vincenta actually, this owes alot to Lou Reed’s Magnum Opus Street Hassle, “don’t SLIP away” was tweaked a bit by Curtis. ruclips.net/video/bkG9BKgDvNI/видео.html
i remember!
I'm 45 and have been listening to this all my life. still goosebumps..fucking gravy
There was one band that was right there with them, even earlier. That band is Wire, one of the most overlooked bands of all time.
@@nottavictim5 Lou Reed is a genius, but I see no similarity between that song and this.
People like you find it easy……
That line is so powerful
This is why I love Joy Division it makes me feel claustrophobic,dark and all other people hate.I love it.People laugh at me for being different,I laugh at them cos they are all the same……..
I love the crashing guitar chords at the end of this. It's like some beautiful storm. The song is so full of emotion too.
When you've seen the movie 'Control', you always seem to feel that this song (together with Ceremony) is somehow related to Curtis' life itself, and a projection into other people's lives, to emphasize the fact you as a human being are capable of / are worthy of having a life with a (small) social circle, you can support each other, you can keep an eye on, you can love, you can nurture ... And that in the end, there are people who 'walk away' / 'fade away' in silence, without any post-recognition.
can u listen to our cover? ruclips.net/video/nS3-Lcs0i9w/видео.html
Ceremony is like the long lost Ian Curtis track. I've only heard a live recording of it and sadly his microphone was not working properly at the start. I always considered it to be the final Joy Division song...
ah, haven't watch it and still trying to watch it. tell me if there's a streaming service that has it
@@carissanami5824 its on prime but you have to rent its like three quid.
@@callumfisher8101 oh thank you, I will try it soon
2021 and 2022, I have lost my mother first then my beloved brother. These years made me learn about "see the danger, always danger". Remember: we will always soon cry for someone, even if you have to wait apparently with no tears for 20 years.
This piece of art is really the most beautiful thing I’ve ever listened to. I’m thankful Ian existed. I don’t want to get deeper into it right now.
