Hi all welcome back to another video Dereck Reacts back at it again! This time around we take a look at another New Order reaction this time with a PATREON request of "Blue Monday." How familiar this tune is, why? because it's a smash hit that all clubs in the 80s should have been playing. See my reaction now!

[@MusicReaction]

I'm 56 and I still rip up the dance floor when this comes on in a club.

[@heffo67]

You don't. You potter around, half out of breath. Willing you feet and legs to places they can no longer go. Almost tripping over yourself and but an embarrassment to the younger members of your own family. The vision you think that you project is not the one that they see. Lost in a dry-ice fog of past glories, dawn parties, rushes and Tuesday blues, you look at them and smile. They smile back. You believe it is knowing respect. Look again. They smile in pity!!! : - )

[@MusicReaction]

@@heffo67 Nice poem, but the reality is that I'm fit and I know how to dance.

[@heffo67]

48 and yes I do dance and sway whenever it comes out at a party :)

[@matthewrandom4523]

So do I, and I'm 55. The 80ies was the best decade, musically, wasn't it?

[@maureenwagg5305]

This song. The dance floor was so full you could barely move. Gets me dancing every time.

[@annesmith2259]

I remember dancing to this in my bedroom at age 14 .. I’m 52 now 😂 it’s still fantastic.. early 80 s new wave was unreal

[@IAmFat1968]

So did I, as I was listening just one or maybe two radio channels (I'm also 52), because of a kind or musical protectionism all the synthpop and coldwave bands were banned in France and replaced by very bad music. Producers invented a rockabilly wave, these were songs with silly lyrics with people trying to imitate Elvis Presley.

[@beich70]

The 80's are great, I still love it all, I am 50. Depeche Mode was also great. The Violator album is masterpiece for sure!

[@eat_pray_porg8450]

No shame in your age! Is that your photo in the avatar? Because you don't look 52! This song still slaps (I'm 46) and I totally feel the nostalgia of this song, even though I didn't discover it until 1988. :-)

[@tallykev6608]

I remember dancing to this under a strobe light at an all-night club called the Vatican..... good times

[@Wuppie62]

I remember dancing to this too, when it was new and played in the discotheques while on holiday in Spain, together with some Human League and Italodisco summerhits. I still love synthpop and its electronic precursors like Kraftwerk.

[@hahatoldyouso]

This is the biggest selling 12" record ever in UK!

A dance floor masterpiece. Again, when this song came out we never heard anything like it. Pass around the poppers, totally f-uped. Giving in to the music. Timeless...........It's meant to be almost robotic, lack of feeling.

[@RR64434]

The Poppers huh?? Nice. Lol

[@ingobordewick6480]

This bass drum was a complete game-changer. People had never heard something like this... The good old days.

[@lamusiclover2264]

That rapid bass drum program, and they have admitted it, came from "Our Love" by Donna Summer on the "Bad Girls" album

[@miguimau]

They took that from italo and Kraftwerk but Blue Monday was another level. I danced this with flashing lights in the disco and it was unprecedented. Very good days.

[@dvalero87]

This was dance trance music at its best. Bizarre Love Triangle, Depeche Mode, The Cure, The Smiths/Morrissey, it was 4 hours straight on the dance floor without breaks. I spent the 80's dancing with myself on the dance floor. You didn't need a partner, but if your friends wanted to join, which they did, it was a party on the dance floor. Every high school dance from 1983 through 1987 was to this kind of music.

[@brianfinch5748]

Blue Monday is a classic that never gets old. As mentioned the inspiration for this song was Donna Summer's Our Love from Bad Girls.

[@miguimau]

And italo disco.

[@redsmoker37]

New Order is absolutely amazing. They emerged from Joy Division, really a punk band, after lead singer Ian Curtis committed suicide in 1980. The re-worked band New Order really was one of the leaders of the UK electronica movement, to which Depeche Mode and Echo and the Bunnymen also belong. Legendary band and so many great songs, especially True Faith. Bernard Summers was the guitarist in Joy Division, taking over lead vocals for New Order.

[@alregis8668]

Both Depeche Mode and New Order were great admirators of Kraftwerk, the band that probably made emerge synth pop and techno pop : drums from World in my Eyes are heavly taken from Music Non Stop, and the choir in Blue Monday came from the 1975 Radioactivity.

[@taniaPBear]

I still have that 12 inch record. Whenever anyone asks why we danced the way we did in the 80's, I'll refer them to this track. If you can show me another way to dance to this beat, go ahead.

[@yancke]

It is a choir. Sampled from Kraftwerk's "Uranium".

[@luciekonecna137]

such a little ethereal touch. Especially contrasted with the Eastwood strings and the Donna Summers beat... I just love it.

[@tonywilkinson6895]

Kraft indeed my friend. 👌

[@ScottPothan]

Heaven Nightclub would never have existed without this track

[@mmiller9812]

Nothing like hearing this out on the dance floor under the pulsing lights.

[@RogerLanderos]

I danced to this song as a teenager and still love it now in my 50s. It's great to a see a younger generation appreciating this music.

[@iainweller452]

If you’re dipping into 80s new wave, indie music check out The Smiths - How Soon is Now, or There is a Light That Never Goes Out. Both songs musically and lyrically brilliant

[@harripalomaki8796]

New Wave in the US. In Europe, New Wave meant something like early Elvis Costello - punk-influenced but more melodic and cerebral. New Order, though, were Post Punk: punk generation influenced by Kraftwerk, Moroder, Krautrock, Bowie, hi-nrg, horror movies...whatever took their fancy. And Blue Monday is the daddy of every vaguely alternative dance track.

[@iainweller452]

@@harripalomaki8796 I thought about mentioning post punk but I was just trying to keep it simple, love post punk, Pil, Killing Joke and The Cult Dreamtime and Love to name a few

[@oceanlover3530]

This was such a HUGE hit in the clubs! It was played everywhere. One of the BEST ever club songs produced! So fun to dance to! ✌🏻🙂✌🏻

[@nadiaahern]

CLASSIC New Order, techno with that bass line coming in.They were SO good at creating these musical layer cakes. You are taking me back to my high school days! Quintessential new wave making me want to put on all my black eyeliner spike my bangs and dance right into the fog from the smoke machine!!!!

[@michaelbiggs1254]

This literally never ages. An astounding piece of work from Mancunian musicians.

[@malwill54]

I'm a 66 year old Electronic Music fan who as a fan of Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream and other German electronic bands so, when this was released I was so glad that the post-punk bands engaged E.M and produced such fantatic music. New Order were at the forefront of an explosion of British bands who came after them. Depeche Mode, Human League (checkout the "Love & Dancing album) followed later by Eurythics and a swathe of others. Listen to the roots of this type of music by listening to Krafterk. The choir you hear is from the track "Uranium" by Kraftwerk from the 1976 album "rRadioactivity." Nevertheless, New Order altered the British Music scene and set it on a new path much different than anything previous. British "Synth-Pop" as it later was known laid the foundations for later bands and artists that became known all over the world. This song charted more than once and to this day is the best selling 12 inch song EVER!

I can remember being on the dance floor with my eyes closed for this one. This got everyone up and into their own little world.

[@willswomble7274]

07 March 1983 Factory Records release of the biggest selling 12'' in history. You should have been on the clubbing scene in Madchester, UK! I was.... ;) and survived, still have a moustache...

[@scoppy59]

At the origin of this group, there was joy division, a group whose singer ended his life. The title "transmission" deserves to be in your playlist!

[@sdev2749]

I was 17 when this song came out in 83, these were the best years of my life in the 80's and this song was prominent, so many memories of friends, nightclubs, girlfriends etc

[@hdufort]

They had to plug together equipment that was not meant to work together. There was no standard back then. No drivers, no software conversion. Bands like Kraftwerk had to solder circuits or build some of their synths with knobs and lamps.

[@tamaradelempickafacebook]

The had to build their own synths to make this song!

[@jaymez3461]

Now that you’ve opened that door, you need to hear more New Order. They have a lot of amazing songs. I would recommend Bizarre Love Triangle and True Faith. Both are just phenomenal!

[@renenielsen92]

the 12" remix of this is supposedly the best selling single of all time.. An absolute classic!

[@miguimau]

They actually lost a lot of money because Peter Saville sleeve design was so expensive to print. 🤭

[@PaulDragicevich]

Peter Hook played the "guitar" parts on bass - they're his signature lead bass style.

[@coolhive2941]

I believe the drum sample came from Donna Summer’s Our Love, from the 1979 Bad Girls album.

[@mudshark5393]

The B side had the instrumental version named "The Beach".

[@jimmymac4559]

I forgot about that!

[@PeterMilanovski]

It was actually pretty good! Even though it didn't have lyrics, I think that the beat hit harder on The Beach than it did on Blue Monday!

[@stevenkendall3092]

They are a groundbreaking New Wave band. If you want to hear more vocals than instrumental then check out "Bizarre Love Triangle" or "True Faith" next. Also if you're interested in their origin story check out the film "Control" which covers the band's period when they were called "Joy Division" and why they had to reinvent themselves in the mid-80's.

[@stevenalexander6713]

Old school New Order had a lot of songs with 1 or 2 minute instrumental intros before you get to the lyrics. Another one of my favorite intros is the beginning of the 12" version of Perfect Kiss.

[@RaniOsnat]

I get a kick seeing you react to the soundtrack of my youth… I remember when Blue Monday came out and it was just hypnotic. Later on in life I got to see New Order live a few times and when this song comes on, everyone’s in a frenzy.

[@TJdirect]

I first heard this at a roller disco. Strobe lights, mirror balls and alcohol on wheels great combination! 🤣🤣

Loved your reaction to this song. It’s one of my all time favourites. Had it on tape in the ‘80’s, sadly lost it somewhere in the early ‘90’s. Was so happy to get on CD. Some elements of the song, especially near the end (with the choir) remind me of ABBA’s The day before you came.

You have to listen to 'The Beach' (Side B : Dub Version of this..) and 'The Perfect Kiss'n 'Cinfusion' and 'Bizarre Love Triangle' from NEW ORDER as well :)

[@jon-paulfilkins7820]

It's somewhere between the mid 80's and early 90's, you have the art rockers, goths, casuals and the dance kids in the room, you put this on, and EVERYONE hits the floor. I know, I was there! I was one of them.

[@robetclo2516]

I remember when I bought the 12 inches single and it was because the sleeve looked like a floppy disk. But I was amazed at the time and I still have my copy. A real dance classic.

[@LynneConnolly]

I'm a Manc, remember those days. Triggered by the Sex Pistols gig at the Free Trade Hall. The way you hear it, everybody in Manchester was there, but there were only about 100 people in the audience. People who changed music. Tony Wilson, troubled genius and all around - well, ask Peter Hook, the bassist with New Order. Anybody else here remember the Hacienda?

[@anthonyv1719]

Legends., still kicking today,. Many firsts - such as lead bass taking over from lead guitar. Some of the most iconic songs ever. Would suggest their perfect pop song "Crystal"

[@Nico3039]

[@bigcheese2128]

I think something that gets lost on many people with regards to historical context is that this song didn’t just happen to sound like those disco songs you mentioned but they were direct influences to new order. You were spot on about the drum pattern reminding you of Donna Summer. This was pretty revolutionary for its time because no song had ever A. Fully embraced both punk/post punk and disco at the same time, and B. Turned it into a number one hit

[@PaganMinn]

i was the like to take you from 999 to 1k XD love your channel man. new sub

[@dorientjewoller113]

And just to say that New Order are the remainders of Joy Division, of which the lead vocalist, Ian Curtis, committed suicide.

[@jeanpeuxplus7257]

The most irresistible dance song of the 80's. So iconic that it charted three times in the UK (1983-88-93). And when your song is remixed by Quicy Jones himself (88 version), you know you have made something special! And another amazing song with brilliant video is True Faith kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5esYoZmhbB9iJo

[@thelwulfeoforlic6482]

The ‘choir’ is a sample from the Kraftwerk track “Uranium” taken from the 1975 studio album “Radio-Activity”

[@kyrisgeorgiou9197]

There is a great analysis of this masterpiece on youtube that reveals the influences for its synthesis. The choir is a sampling (probably the first ever) from the German group Kraftwerk from 1975. Pioneers in electronic music. The rythm is Donna Summer's. The 6 chord bass guitar alludes to Ennio Morricone's guitar solo from For a few dollars more (final duel). The synth overtures an influence from a song they first heard in a club in New York City 1982. And a couple or more other. Just goes to show once more the co-creative process in everything. I'm glad that some modern songs that have come out are clearly re-visiting the sounds of that era. Music is timeless.

[@7788675309]

The drum beat is from Donna Summer's Our Love from her Bad Girls Album that is way it sounds so disco

[@hdufort]

Totally. As a bonus, the Perfect Kiss video shows a live performance in their recording studio with producer Martin Hannett behind the window. Bernard's voice is a little raw and unsteady but the second half of the song is amazing.

[@hdufort]

The background "ahhhhhhhh" is a monk choir sample from Kraftwerk that they have resampled. Bernard's voice is duplicated. One track is raw, the other is processed though vocoder.
