Have loved this song for a long time now. Rarely like covers but this one does justice to Joy Division. Funny....just ran to this today! Excellent live cover!
I am 74 years young saw hendrix Clapton all of them, raised in Manchester, jd, hell what a kick ass version 🎸, mind you the killers are one kick ass band 👌, brilliant
@@ECooks Methinks that you don't concur w/ his sentiments re: your "Hmm", Mr/Ms E. Cooks...?! May I please enquire why, if this is the case? I was precisely 6 years & 5 months old when Ian Curtis tragically died but New Order has been my outright #1 band since I was only 11 or 12 & thus I 'discovered' & then increasingly fell in love with Joy Division retroactively...but anyway, I love this cover of 'Shadowplay', having first heard it when I watched "Control' at the cinemas back in 2007 - but I'm well aware that a number of diehard JD fans don't like it much & of course, one's taste in music is 100% subjective & all...but I always love to hear/read WHY people do, or don't like certain songs (especially covers of songs originally written &/or performed by bands that they love, performed by bands that they may not love, or even like), that's all...apologies for the verbosity of this 2nd paragraph, my friend but I'm presently taking some VERY strong analgesia, following lower back surgery last week & thus I'm a tad 'hazy', to say the very least!! Anyway, my thanks, in advance, for your time...Matt.
This is the killers paying a tribute to jd, I'm 74 years young saw hendrix Clapton beck, hendrix was my hero, listen to Otis Taylor, hey joe, enjoy, 😊 love the killers ❤, great band 🎸, but methinks what would i know
I know what you meant I saw a video where they were playing for a lady on radio or video chat I don’t remember but Brandon was doing it without that energy and enthusiasm that he does in public with a crowd I mean .. 😅 About the video is my imagination or the song was already finished and the people continue to sing and Brandon stars again with his keyboard?
Sorry, I am 75, saw hendrix Clapton all of them, raised in Manchester, hey joe was a hendrix cover, methinks killers are paying tribute to a great band, from another great band, ✌️ 🎸
This was not good. But, I heard and saw JD perform it live so I am not objective about the song, I guess. It's one of those songs no one should ever cover because it is a deep dive into one person's abyss, a place no one should ever go.
As a JD fan from 1979, I approve this message

Have you heard the album version?
@@ronnsnow2859 I have.....excellent.
Their's was a decent cover, now it's a bit bloated and OTT.
I am 74 years young saw them all, 💞 brilliant version of a classic, mind you I love the killers, one of the greatest bands ever, 😄 ❤️ 🎸👍
Love the killers love this JD cover. Good to see JD being exposed in 2022 and still sounds great

Joy Division their legacy.....it is absolutely brilliant..... thanks Killers - eternal respect
I really love this band they bring the 80s sound back to life

he took time to get into character- fantastic
I love it!!
Like I have said 74 years young, bought the CD Sawdust, it's absolutely brilliant 😃 🎸, can't stop playing it 🎸, fantastic songs 🎶🎹
Hahaha I love BF so much ! I miss him, I love the way he needs that fucking human connections, AS THE CROWDSx8 ufffff 😍

2:14 But I could only stare in disbelief as the crowds~~~x7
Great sound quality!
Awesome
I miss Mark!
You don’t wanna know where Mark is!
God I love this so much, but then again Brandon can’t do anything wrong 😂❤
🤘
This is Killers trying their best Joy Division impersonation. :-)
Thanks for the upload! Do you have the whole concert by any chance?
Check the profiles festival playlist page ;)

To the Zentrum waiting for you
I think Ian Curtis would be proud
👍, amen to that bro 🎸
how did he get hurt?
I noticed him lookin at his finger too
Imagine ian was there
What’s up with his finger?
What’s wrong with his hand?
Whos on guitar & bass???
Amazing version but I would stare in disbelief at the basic fans of this song who would stop short of Warsaw
Did Flowers break a nail?
Another sub par band covering an amazing song by a truly amazing band...
Sorry, I am 75, saw hendrix Clapton all of them, raised in Manchester, hey joe was a hendrix cover, methinks killers are paying tribute to a great band, from another great band, ✌️ 🎸
i feel like context is missing, cause this crowd seems flat and he was trying
no quieran justificar, Brandon estaba que se lo llevaba la verg4
Why is the crowd so weird
They’re German😂
@@apollo9844funny
Don’t think Ian would be happy 😕
Non mi piace, non è una semplice canzonetta
i prefer John Frusciante..
es el peor cover que he escuchado :(
This is really bad,. Sorry,

It's one of those songs no one should ever cover because it is a deep dive into one person's abyss, a place

Where did you see JD?
@@hughzapretti-boyden9187 Rainbow
@@MA_808 supporting Buzzcocks? I was there.
@@hughzapretti-boyden9187 awesome I saw the stranglers on the bill
loved to have seen that show
What happened to his hand?
Ian Curtis would have rushed on stage and twatted them for that abomination
The record version is good, kept mean and lean.They draw it out too long now, its a bit an OTT extravaganza by the end, for what is a cover.
