Lyrics

Heaven, a gateway, a hope
Just like a feeling inside, it's no joke
And though it hurts me to see you this way
Betrayed by words, I'd never heard, too hard to say
Up, down, turn around
Please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I'll walk alone
I'll find my soul as I go home
Up, down, turn around
Please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I'll walk alone
I'll find my soul as I go home
Each way I turn, I know I'll always try
To break this circle that's been placed around me
From time to time, I find I've lost some need
That was urgent to myself, I do believe
Up, down, turn around
Please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I'll walk alone
I'll find my soul as I go home
Up, down, turn around
Please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I'll walk alone
I'll find my soul as I go home
Oh, you've got green eyes
Oh, you've got blue eyes
Oh, you've got grey eyes
Oh, you've got green eyes
Oh, you've got blue eyes
Oh, you've got grey eyes
And I've never seen anyone quite like you before
No, I've never met anyone quite like you before
Bolts from above hurt the people down below
People in this world, we have no place to go
Bolts from above hurt the people down below
People in this world, we have no place to go
Bolts from above hurt the people down below
People in this world, we have no place to go
Bolts from above hurt the people down below
People in this world, we have no place to go
Oh, it's the last time
Oh, it's the last time
Oh, it's the last time
Oh, it's the last time
Oh, it's the last time
Oh, I've never met anyone quite like you before
Oh no, I've never met anyone quite like you before

New Order never gets old. My 21 year old daughter asked me what I used to listen to at her age. I sent her a few links to New Order, Depeche Mode, The Smiths, etc. I was pleasantly surprised to hear her Spotify filled up w/almost all their songs.

RIP Ian.

Day 37 of listening to Temptation for a year

[robertmoss]

I listen to New Order every day and sing along to all their songs. I’m 67 and grew up with this band, young people ask me what are you listening to pops?
When I tell them we have new converts.
Songs like this never get old and never fade. Peace

[GlitterRictus]

I absolutely lose my shit when the up down turn around part comes on

[mindjoystudio]

My heart aches when I hear this. This is the soundtrack to the most wonderfully innocent days of my young adulthood with my now husband. I love it so much. I remember playing the tape in my little Panasonic boom box with a broken handle and scratches all over it. It was the only electronic item I had and it was all I needed. Thank you New Order.

If I had a Time Machine I’d spend the rest of my life in the 80s

[amalina.alien]

I’m 30 years old, East African Somali British and this is what my mum always played growing up. This, joy division, the smiths, Queen. Music knows no colour or creed. This song feels like home to me ❤️

[SuzanneO]

That look into the camera when she starts flicking through the vinyl. Magic. Well the whole thing is. 👍

[ChowDownDetroit]

New Order’s music is timeless. It will still be awesome in the year 2049

[mikebeltran]

This music never gets old, I'm 58 years young and still loving Joy Division and New Order.

[davek]

Some New Order songs are more guitar-driven and some are more synth-driven. But this song is the perfect fusion of the two.

[delby]

Stephen's drumming on this song is brilliant. He's an excellent drummer.

[pekkahoffren]

Best video ever made. She looks just like my wife when I met her and the song... it's a masterpiece.

[kozue___]

i am 500 years old, and cannot hold my tears when listening to this song now.

[ДмитрийКузеро-нй]

Good music! I listened to it at school, back in the Soviet Era, in the 80's!!! Hello from Russia!!

[isaacbetts]

Fun fact: The lass in the video, Victoria Bergsman, is a singer. Probably best known for singing on 'Young Folks' by Peter Bjorn and John. It's thought that her shoplifting records is a nod to Ian Curtis who used to do the same as an adolescent.

In 1987, I bought 'Substance' at the mall. I sat in the parking lot and listened to the whole album. It is still one of my favorites. The lyrics. These folks are genius.

[harg]

such a privilege was to be a teenager when this came out, , , it feels we lived in another planet back then !

[Alig-hfzl]

Born in Manchester, one great city. New order mean so much to everyone here. We'll never forget Ian Curtis 😍

[bobblowhard]

Something so magical about the music of the 80's. So glad I was there.
