Joy Division - She's Lost Control

Joy Division playing "She's Lost Control". Enjoy :)

[@clumpft]

I love how all the instruments sound so distinct from eachother, yet they somehow work together.

[@thomasr8185]

I like this version more than the studio one. Sounds more raw. The guitar, bass and drums all sound wicked, and of course Curtis' dance.

[@tategibbs655]

One of the most astonishing, yet disturbing stage presences in music history.

You know you're having a bad day when you thing "Man I'm depressed, Oh, I know some Joy division will cheer me up".... and it does!

[@999therocker]

+Brad M (BradMx) It does cheer me up on a bad day cause they were great and inspiring. I loved the anti-star and interesting lyrics and vibe along with the unique vocal quality and timbre of Ian's voice. Some of the feelings in their music invoked ancient associations in spirit and they weren't afraid to probe the dark problem and history of the human condition. Yea, you could right a bunch of love songs to cheer people up but that is usually pretty boring. The best guys who sang of love also covered dark subjects sometimes like Bob Marley and Peter Tosh.

[@thoyo]

+James Chance we'll said

Brad M - I'm very nearly 58 , so i REALLY know what you mean !!! A few years ago i bought the " Heart And Soul " VERY expensive - nearly everything CD thingy in a nice Box with a Booklet Etc . Your comment is so correct to those of us 55+ Bracket !!! Luckily , Today , i was just trying out new Ear - phones , and , I'm not depressed ! But , for when i am.....there's always KZbin and Ian Curtis to put things in perspective for me !!!

[@thewhoman3182]

They don't cheer me up but I can definitely identify with the lyrics which is why I like them- it makes me feel like I'm not alone and I'm sure it is the same for many others.

[@theresadenis8128]

I'm busy reading Peter Hook's autobiography and he says that these words were penned by Ian Curtis who suffered from epilepsy - and this song is a direct reference to a woman he knew who died from a seizure. I am now listening to it with "different ears".

+Jay Coburn Yeah he died waaaay too young for sure. But it's kind of funny you say that since he was only alive in the 80s for a few months.

[@jaycoburn5731]

unfortunatebeam lol, you're right. But he was a huge influence on Robert Smith and Bono. Even noted JD hater Morrissey acknowledged his impact, as did The Fall's Mark E. Smith and Bauhaus' Peter Murphy(both kind of jealous/in awe of him).

Joy Division was amazing, and the very central force of that amazingness was Ian. All these years later, and the loss of him still stings. His daughter Natalie, except for her mom's nose, is the very image of her father. Her eyes, the shape of her mouth... pure Ian. He would be very proud of her.

[@LesleighHart]

As someone with epilepsy I can tell you this song is perfect in its desperation and yearning for help while having a seizure.

[@bradsmith6019]

Holy...Fucking...Wow! Until today I have never heard a Joy Division song, let alone seen a performance. This is just amazing. How have I never heard this before. I am in my late 30's, grew up listening to punk, grunge, and indie...but never heard this? I wish I could go back five minutes just so I could watch this video for the first time again. Wow!

[@specialist07]

Can you not feel the raw power and emotion conveyed? It does not matter the complexity of the guitar riffs and singing, It is the feeling and the chemistry of the group that works so well.

[@zenpaganwarrior]

Soul Eruption There was something growing Through the pub smoke far away, deep underground in synaptic distress. There was something growing where the young men met the future where notions suicidally shake where private visions confess. Had to play it out, to the end Had to play it out, to the end Had to play it out, to the end. Something grew and erupted As new centuries beckoned On new waves and possible ends A life slips away, co-opted. Something grew and erupted writhed and seethed with ancient power Like a man who stands and faces it all with steadied hands. Where sings the living voice, dead? Where sings the living voice, now dead? Is there room in heaven for the angels of hopeless dread? He's lost control again - Isolation has its charms. He remembers nothing. He forgot what she said. Had to play it out, to the end Had to play it out, to the end Had to play it out, to the end. - Poem I wrote for Ian, comparing his death with the eruption of Mt. St. Helens, which occurred the same day. Cheers to all you fuckin' awesome JD fans.

[@maskedladyrobber]

[@User-jk8wq]

Epilepsy never sounded so absolutely terrifying.

[@kateemma22]

Then you've never lived with it. The magic of this song is how it so accurately captures what epilepsy is, from the out of synch beats to the heavy breaths, and that's even before you bring in Curtis' incredible words. The man was a tortured genius and this song alone, even without bringing in all the other amazing JD songs, shows that.

[@clzm90]

It was a debilitating disease back then and continues to be so today. However, the prescriptions today are much better than what it was in Ian's days. There was not a lot of attention given to epilepsy back then and most of the time patients were simply told to learn to live with it. The prescriptions were rubbish and acted more like a placebo than an actual remedy. Ian witnessed a girl with epilepsy lost control and who died from it. It made him think about himself who is also an epileptic and gave inspiration to this song. His fear of epilepsy was one of the factors that led to his suicide because he wanted to succeed and enjoy his life but he could not do that with the lingering fear that he could die anytime from epilepsy.

[@deenibeeniable]

I had grand mal seizures (like Ian's) for quite awhile after a head injury when I was in my 20s. The seizures themselves are really scary--that is, the moments right before; you feel like you're just dying, the feeling of impending doom is unimaginably frightening, but then you're just, I don't know, "erased." So thankfully you are never around for all the thrashing around. Strangely, what is almost worse is the amnesia when you wake up. You feel like you've been beaten with a baseball bat - every muscle has clenched harder than you could ever do it voluntarily, so you have cramps & charlie horses everywhere & you have the worst imaginable headache, not to mention any injury you might have sustained when falling or banging your head or whatever). (once I woke up with two black eyes. Then there's the feeling of having some nice EMT bending over you saying "What's your name?" and you really cannot answer...You carry the fear around, you're constantly desperately afraid that you're going to have a seizure, you never know where or when, it could happen at any time., what do you do? You're constantly planning out how to protect yourself, is there something soft around, a pillow? Newspapers? a sweater? to put under your head, & that's assuming you even get any warning. It consumes your entire life. And the very panic & fear about having one can actually bring one on, so it's kind of self-fulfilling. Then there are the meds. This happened to me in the late 70s, same time it happened to Ian, & I was on some of the same drugs, & I can tell you that if all the above doesn't make you feel suicidal, the drug all by itself WILL. It's absolutely horrible stuff, all of it. Luckily for me after 5 years or so the seizures faded away & I stopped having them, but it sounds like Ian's were increasing in frequency & intensity. That would be a truly desperate situation, the fear it pulls out of you comes from a deep place in your psyche that you never knew existed. Absolutely deadly.

[@deenibeeniable]

The prescriptions back then weren't exactly placebos -- but they were the shotgun effect, the neurological equivalent of, if you had an insect bite, taking an antihistamine orally vs. putting dot topically on the actual bite. They just numbed your brain so completely that you might not have any seizures but you didn't have any energy, your emotions were dulled, your thoughts fuzzy, you creativity zapped. Awful stuff. I've posted my experience of grand mal seizures, which Ian had, as I understand it,, above.

[@SavannahandJesus]

deenibeeniable wow, I'm glad that you've gotten better, that sounds like pure hell

[@guythinkingoutloud]

you know, I have to say this performance is even better than the album version. This is for me, the definitive version...I cant think of a better compliment. It stunned me the first time I saw years ago when I wasnt a fan...it still mesmerises me now..as fresh and powerful as the first day I saw it.

[@sineadhorner3761]

one of my favourite songs,honest, exhausted, angry, anxious and fragile. As tortured and frantic as this song may appear to sound, it's the truth in all it's ugly glory and god love him and the band for knowing that, interpreting it as the truth as they knew and weren't afraid of it. To me it's an amazing song for that very reason, but reason isn't a part of it, you just feel it : D

[@bibsteenson]

Apart from the mesmeric singing, poignent lyrics, unique dancing, great bassline, inventive drumming and jagged edged guitar riff this song hasn't got much going for it.

[@nesinflower]

They're is actually some science behind it: www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/05/100520131431.htm But I assume that part of the reason people pick on Joy Division is because a large section of their fan base are extremely arrogant, condescending and pretentious ie: "473 very emotionally crippled individuals"
