New Order - 1981 Celebration (Live from Granada TV)

[@soulminer]

When I bought Movement in the early 1980s I was in high school and just been released from a child psychiatric ihospital. Still listening now when I'm 50. Still haunts me.

[@jawknee4088]

I remember listening to Movement on the morning after a bad acid trip. It's had a special place in my heart ever since.

[@thedelacruz]

This is an iconic show. These songs are hauntingly beautiful even if some are a little hard to swallow " some people look down on me. I hope they like what they see". Hooky is on the money. All of them in their inexperience especially without Ian look so vulnerable yet they deliver. Sounds pretty much like the album songs.

[@naugjames]

A little hard to swallow? 😂 None of these songs are hard to swallow, they are excellent. The lyric you quoted isn't particularly scathing, lol.

[@pressureworks]

Inexperienced? They've only been playing together since 1976.

[@Anonymous-KB]

As many have described as “Unassuming” ... Passionately Novice. But very Very Good, and interesting. At least In my opinion.

[@beaware6487]

Remember Granada TV was northern UK and NO wanted more to do with that than the snobby elite London exposure.

I love how Stephen is just doing his steady, 'human drum machine' job without fanfare behind, as always. And 19:10 Bernard looks so very young.

Thanks to the uploader, just wanted to drop in and say even if these videos don’t have a giant audience there are a dedicated group of us Joy Division/New Order fans that appreciate people who upload and pass on these these videoclips so others that are interested can watch it. Appreciate it. It’s great to have this HD footage of the band. I love almost every song here but “Chosen Time” “Denial” and “Ceremony” are particularly great.

The fact that most of the sheep don't get it just proves how good this music is

Would not have any other way. Though the music is very poppy. The sheep could not processes it! Had school mates at the time they had no clue.

"Hey, aren't you the band whose vocalist committed suicide?" Being on TV playing with your band barely a year after Ian's gone. There's more to the picture than meets the eye. P. S. Ceremony, one of the most amazing songs ever written.

[@desert.mantis]

Thanks for this awesome video upload!

[@antunivanovic]

At the time, Hook had a much more effective voice to lead on these songs. Confusingly, his deeper range on the studio version really had a Curtis touch. But maybe it was conscious decision by everyone in the band, that they step away from the "Joy Division II" connotations thus Bernard taking over. His lethargic tone of voice stayed weak (and out of tune) to the present day but altogether gave New Order a trademark charm all of its own. A great early live show, this.

[@Elias-no9fy]

It was indeed a concious decision! If I recall correctly they picked out the vocalist that sounded the least like Ian.

[@pyrtwistPyrtwistWorldInMotion]

Can't play bass and sing. JD's tracks had the vocals go around the guitar not the bass.

[@neoisis9373]

@@pyrtwistPyrtwistWorldInMotion Yeah Hooky has explained that was part of the reason. Neither of them were very good at playing while singing, and they could arrange songs to have the guitar alternating with the vocal, which is pretty much what they’d already done in JD, but it wouldn’t work so well to have the bass cutting in and out. Also iirc he said Rob auditioned them and thought Barney was the least bad of the lot.

0:01 I contend that Dreams Never End was a JD song they had been working on that was never played live like Ceremony. It simply sounds too much like LWTUA era JD. Peter sang lead - he sang no other NO tunes, and his deep voice sounded like IC.

[@Saturn-gv9ru]

Dreams Never End is likely the very first original New Order song. Peter Hook came up with the bassline right around the time Ian died, might have even been the very same weekend. From there the rest of the song was written around the bass part, and Peter wrote the lyrics. He also sings Doubts Even Here, the second to last track on Movement, though that song was written by Stephen Morris.
