Lyrics:

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
How does it feel
To treat me like you do?
When you've laid your hands upon me
And told me who you are?
I thought I was mistaken
I thought I heard your words
Tell me how do I feel?
Tell me now, how do I feel?
Those who came before me
Lived through their vocations
From the past until completion
They'll turn away no more
And still, I find it so hard
To say what I need to say
But, I'm quite sure that you'll tell me
Just how I should feel today

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
I see a ship in the harbour
I can and shall obey
But, if it wasn't for your misfortune
I'd be a heavenly person today
And I thought I was mistaken
And I thought I heard you speak
Tell me, how do I feel?
Tell me now, how should I feel?
Now I stand here waiting

[Verse 3]
I thought I told you to leave me
When I walked down to the beach
Tell me how does it feel
When your heart grows cold
(Grows cold, grows cold, grows cold, grows cold)

[Instrumental Outro]

Jeff Schrader:

A rare case on TOTP where a band actually played live. The instruments going out of tune and not syncing makes it both bad and good.

Karl Hamilton:

Amazing. Real New Order fans know that the more chaotic a gig, and the more equipment goes wrong, the better it is.

pyrtwist:

In Steve's latest book, Fast Forward, he admits that he stuck in the wrong floppy discs at the wrong time. At 2:21 the chorus plays instead of the thunder.

Jack Pidgeon:

Somehow this Manages to be absolutely dreadful and brilliant the same time

Korzaski:

i love how bernard seemingly laughs in the middle of his line at 3:21 cause of just how chaotic this shit is

Janis:

omg bernard is screaming inside, hooky doesn't care, gillian looks worried and stephen is trying not to laugh hahahaha

I love Hooky

sunsetman22:

ah yes, the most legendary TOTP performance of all time

Mr SWEDEN:

Legends!

the who man:

1:58: That moment when you step on a Lego brick you didn't realise was there.

Felix F:

Actually sounds like a live performance. The mistakes add to the charm.

joe22589:

I never really got them. Better choose the original and listen to Kraftwerk.

Tom Drake:

Pretty much all the techno bands back then had real difficulty in recreating their sound live.
This just proves that New Order was no exception.

VeryBoyishGrace:

The poor syncing in this makes it sound good. It's like that hearing "So bad it's good."

Dan Piedra:

That bunny at the beginning of the intro would never fly today.

Rua.:

i remember Thursday nights waiting for this to be on top of the pops lol

Manuela Araujo:

Tenho New Order Substance ||
Argentino capa preta
Alguém sabe o valor?

PAULO TORRES:

Top. Jundiaí Sp forte abraço

David Ellis:

The Best song of the 80's the best selling 12" ever !

Colonial Waster:

2:24 Bernard’s face when he heard that synth gone out of tune

matthew wilson:

2:22. oops. Bernard seemed to find it funny though.

Alan:

Not sure what is wrong with Bernard's mic but still sounds good. The bass line on this song is incredible. 2:24 to 2:38 is gold

Boss Hui:

I kinda feel like a pill after watching this

sjhanksaz:

I like the creepy rabbit at the beginning

Airspace Violation:

The fact that they could play this live at all considering the technology of the time is amazing.

T J:

I remember watching this, I was 11, it blew my tiny mind

Adam Gorsky:

Y'all know, Barney, Hooky and Steven would have loved this back in the Joy Division days, the chaos the authenticity

Terrible Username Amirite?:

Legend has it that this performance made the single drop in the charts

Jorge L. L.:

Hoy es un tercer lunes, sólo para fanáticos...

Christian Paredes:

How does it feel.....

HEY OTAKUS:

Cadê meu povo brasileiro

Beach Boy:

Still Watching 2021.... Coronavirus time.. quarantine!!!! So sad

Eratosthenes0815:

This version is so much about how I remember "my" 1980th... :D - THNX 4 uploading

Blake Noffsinger:

bernerd is my fav singer in the new order band and blue monday changed music forever

Marco Aurelio:

Esse som d+ show

Tone.:

This is unironically my favourite version of Blue Monday. Brilliant stuff!

OldBaldGuy:

I loved this when it came out but this live makes my ears bleed!!

Ronda Norris:

It's 2020 and I still love this song!!! The 80's rocked 🎵

Claudio Reis:

Imperfect is perfect.

Michael Ringering:

Das Hemd, dass Steve trägt, musste ich zu genau der Zeit auch tragen. :-)

Jill Alexi Estrada:

That bunny is from Alice in Wonderland. My favorite show as a kid.

YOAVIDZ:

(2:23) Bernard's "OMG he pushed the wrong note, again" reaction...

Joe !:

can someone point out to me where the synth doesnt sync up like everyone's saying? it sounds fine to me??

S Gunz:

The synthesizer melody is out of sync with the rhythm, it was programmed in manually, each note had to be input which was done by Gillian, she missed a single note out of the programming and this threw the whole melody out. Few people know that Hooky's bass line is copied from the film A Few Dollars More!!! The drum line is from Donna Summers Our Love and the monk choir sound is sampled from Krafwerks Uranium!

Heltons Hi:

IT'S FEBRUARY 20, 2021 I'M STILL ENJOYING NEW ORDER..GREAT MUSIC FROM THE GREAT TIMES (80'S)😎👊

Drew303:

I sure hope September goes ahead, will be an epic homecoming ❤️

TMT 123:

so beautifully raw, emotional

Blake Noffsinger:

i just herd bernerd just l laghed a little in the song

7of9 SuperFreak:

Love your music 😍😊😋

G Slim:

Yep! They look and sound absolute crap. I love it!

Edgar Alan:

Respect to them for going live , few would have done it.

Doctor X:

Are they even playing their instruments here? 😂

A L:

Wow, this is a 1:1 aspect ratio.

thehole4472:

Discovering this performance on TOTP2 in the 90s made me fall in love with New Order. Bucking the trend by playing live shows just how influential New Order were going to become

A Hardone.:

New order wouldn’t perform on TOTP unless they could do it live because they aren’t a pop group. Setting up MIDI equipment for one song with little time is awkward as the show only had a couple of stages on it and wasn’t a live show unlike the the Old grey whistle test that was. Watch New order perform Sunrise on Whistle test BB2

WeLoveToFish:

Thanks for all the getting us through a lot played the album all over 💕🍺👏👏👏👏

ezza88ster:

Wow! I realise now I have never actually heard the actual live TOTP performance. Sounds wonderfully shit and live...

Christopher Proietti:

Bernard is never going to slay us vocally but, aside from the singing, i like this live version quite a bit. the "flaws" make it unique and it still kicks!

Domi Jean:

Love it ❤🇬🇧

Jorge L De Jesus:

Rare live gig , charming off-tune, yet, still 👍

Michelle Jimenez:

Recuerdo en los 80s cuando era niña y mi mama me llevaba alos ejercisios y ponian esta cancion siempre creo por eso me gusta me da un poco de nostalgia ahora yo con 41 años y mi madre con 60 años

Mark Valentino:

listened through a great sound system really rocks these instruments end down just a shame the song isnt very good. lol

Rapida Amiel:

I thing this music from another universe. from universe that dont now what "time" is...
