Ian Curtis - Rare Interview

[@AP86777]

Such a soft voice. The opposite of his stage voice. Love that combination and his natural look. What an imperfect-perfect man. I’m so on love.

[@tinalongietti4676]

Sylvester Weiter . You are so right ! His speaking voice was entirely different than what he sounded like when he sang ! That’s amazing ! I always loved his baritone voice! It’s amazing to me that I can fall in love with with music years later in life! much , much later , like 40 years ! incredible which only goes to show you that music is timeless! Another incredibly talented musician gone way too soon💔

[@FrankieUtka]

I didn't expect his voice to be so high and soft. When he's behind a mic, he sounds so HEAVY and DEEP. I would've never expected it! That just shows you HOW MUCH OF HIMSELF he put into his EVERY performance. That was his SOUL and it's FRUSTRATION, trying to find its way out of his pain. He was clearly very empathic. Once in a lifetime heart and soul here. Heart and soul, one will burn. Rest easy, Ian Curtis✨

It’s crazy that Ian was the same age as me when he did this interview. Yet he sounds so mature, intelligent and composed. And when you compare that to how he was feeling internally, it’s just so sad.

He recalls they were always laughing and making jokes etc, it was a fun time all round until Ian’s tragic end. But Ofcourse the deep lyrics and blank expressions on Curtis’ face in photographs depict a darkness. Like his voice in this audio, he was by all accounts very soft and very playful. Sad and tragic.

If you have treatment resistant depression or anxiety get a gene site test. It’s a swab on the inside of your mouth and the report shows how you metabolize different medications in case you need to start at a lower or higher dose. I’m a rapid metabolizer with cptsd, mdd and a panic disorder (it’s the trauma lol) and I never felt help from my meds until this test helped us understand how I process and what my needs are. I hope we never lose another soul to suicide. I’ve been through hell over the past three years while my doctors worked to diagnose an autoimmune disease. The pain and symptoms were more than I could stand and I wanted to end it. New Dawn Fades got me through such awful times and now as I’m working towards remission it’s my survival song. “I’ve walked on water, run through fire can’t seem to take this anymore. It was me, waiting for me. Hoping for something more”.
