Lyrics:
On a thousand islands in the sea
I see a thousand people just like me
A hundred unions in the snow
I watch them walking, falling in a row
We live always underground
It's going to be so quiet in here tonight
A thousand islands in the sea
It's a shame
And a hundred years ago
A sailor trod this ground I stood upon
Take me away everyone
When it hurts thou
From my head to my toes
From the words in the book
I see a vision that would bring me luck
From my head to my toes
To my teeth, through my nose
You get these words wrong
You get these words wrong
Everytime
You get these words wrong
I just smile
But from my head to my toes
From my knees to my eyes
Everytime I watch the sky
For these last few days leave me alone
But for these last few days leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone

So many genius New Order songs how can you choose a favorite? But this is my favorite…

[@anako1976]

Absolutely love it

[@crushthevicar]

Yes. How can you, but this one. 😍

[@storminrags]

Beautiful song, so melancholy. I feel that way out sometimes and this song does help bring the emotion out, along with a few other meaningful tracks

[@cateistonic481]

Just started listening to this song on vinyl again. This song cuts through deep cuts and pains of life.

[@steverogers7611]

I only have technique pressed to plastic

[@seanpaulfarnan5742]

Whoever put this song and video together is a genius. Thank you.

[@roberthaynes8830]

Yeah, they go together so well.

[@unsilent_bob420]

Always felt like this was their last goodbye to Ian. Excellent video too.

[@wendywilliams349]

Brilliant . Timeless song . Captures exactly what I'm feeling right now .

[@karlgor47]

I have watched this video/song 20 times maybe, everything is thought provoking. It is reflective of society, mood, the future, the past, and what’s to come. Thank you

[@biteycat]

The main actress in this is Patricia Healey (who was Engelbert Humperdinck's Wife) sadly passed away on 7.2.21 at 85.

[@electromamv6577]

That's sad to hear. Rest in peace, Patricia.

[@warpdag]

Actually this Patricia Healey wasn’t his wife. She and Humperdinck’s wife share the same name but they’re 2 different people.

[@ZambeziKid]

Ah terrible. another person i never knew died. what a suprise. Is this the moment when I need to fake empathy?

[@scaffman2162]

The Patricia Healy in this video is not Engelberts wife. They share the same name but are not the same person. All the movie database sites credit Engelberts wife as the girl in the film but its not her. They really need to alter their listings!!

[@themanfromvolantis]

She is/was hauntingly beautiful

[@Stargazer10255]

Dude, thanks to you i found the music genre I like and represents me the most, thanks from the bottom of my heart

[@ulylucard598]

Good for you pal, thats sick!

[@electromamv6577]

no worries! that's really nice to hear :)

[@taffysaur]

New wave is the best wave.

[@31G350125GO]

Awesome man! Which other bands have you discovered through New Order?

[@philsleddenhouston3831]

I dont know why but this is so powerful I cry . why ?.

[@charlottesometimes6977]

Phil Sleddenhouston 💜

[@neoisis9373]

It’s a moving song and this footage was great with it.

[@catbird2035]

It's very basic. Even those of us who love life and people need solitude - and it's not easy to find.

[@miked1869]

It's a very melancholy tune. Yeah, there's something about it that reminds me of being in my own little world as a kid, although I don't know why - I was 19 when it came out. There's definitely some kind of trigger in the riff or the words that seems to affect a lot of us in a similar way.

[@nmw6674]

Best N.O. album.

[@michaelbraun3808]

What a brilliant idea to combine this 1967 film with one of the most melancholic songs ever! Perhaps Bernard, Peter, Stephen, Ian or even Gillian are to be seen in this film as children, which was shot in Manchester. Who knows... At the end (in my opinion) the best song ever written - within my life - and sometimes it makes me cry some tears.

[@ZambeziKid]

I get that u like it. Me too. BUt this is ridiculous * "Perhaps Bernard, Peter, Stephen, Ian or even Gillian are to be seen in this film as children".

[@rawintwNIOUx2]

​@@ZambeziKid why not? They would have been 10 or 11 or so....who knows what random kids were running around?

[@michaelbraun3808]

That´s what I meant. The year and the city fit - an admittedly very romantic idea... for all who watch this video. @@rawintwNIOUx2

[@michaelbraun3808]

Sorry I´m late...but you didn't understand what I meant. And actually I should say: you haven't thought long enough. You poop.@@ZambeziKid

[@mackymaca]

masterpiece of a song

[@crushthevicar]

This is my favourite song, it has been since the first time I heard it.

[@22Hammy]

This is how a New Order music video should look like. Not like those new ones that they are making nowadays for such great songs.

[@tudiojepegii7198]

This number was played for the first time 11-4-1982 (Musiccenter Vredenburg Utrecht Holland) i was there!

[@ChiquitoKan]

When I look into the future I see myself 95 years old, sitting in the rocking chair, the cane by my side, and listening to New Order and Joy Division

[@crushthevicar]

I will be. And The Cure.

[@annandmartintravers5281]

95? New order are eternal as all great art. I suggest that you listen to the,best of New Order while you have the chance.

[@paulcodling6609]

@@annandmartintravers5281 Hi, are you into Joy Division by any chance?

[@andrewgreenwood2884]

Exactly myself my friend.. God willing 🙏

[@linoportelli8240]

I'll be telling those kids to Leave Me Alone...and get off my grass...unless they want to listen to NO with me

[@nesinflower]

Am I the only one in the world who noticed that in this video when the woman packs up from work to leave there is a woman hanging from the ceiling. You see her shoes, legs and skirt. This has been one of my favorite songs for over 35 years, but the hanging lady in this video is totally freaking me out, especially cuz I don't know if anyone else is seeing it but me.

[@themanfromvolantis]

I didn't notice it the first time but WOW it's so there

[@nesinflower]

@@themanfromvolantis the really, really weird thing I remembered after posting is that Ian (Joy Division - New Order with Ian as singer of course ) killed himself by hanging!!!

[@elhooligan9284]

i believe this is a film and not actually what they used for the music. Completely disturbing tho lol, it’s just a girl admiring everything outside but when she has to work, she yknow

[@nesinflower]

@@elhooligan9284 huh? Do you not know anything about Joy Division and New Order? Not to be rude or anything.

[@nesinflower]

Actually there was a film called 24-hour Party People about the industrial revolution. The soundtrack included this song, song from Joy Division. New Order reformed included many dark songs before they turn to techno pop like I saw them and Minneapolis. Thanks for bringing up the movie though. I've never seen that and I'm wondering if I can find it on Google.

[@Phil-dq2kr]

Brings back memories. I have loved this song since I was 10. Thanks for this video 📷

Absolutely beautiful From my favourite album

[@checkyourhead37]

October now into winter and I can listen to joy division and new order and my favorite music again and try to feel ok again. Great video for a great song

[@kungfulender8733]

I always felt this song has a dash of Joy Division in it .

[@jessegpresley]

yeah, about 3 dashes.

[@ApriliaRacer14]

Without a doubt

[@raseldo22]

@@jessegpresley Ian would love to sing in this record. RIP Ian.

[@k2xplorer77]

I'd say a streak

[@ronbuil6923]

I like to say that this song and "Guilty Partner" were everything Joy Division wanted to be, but never quite was. But, the Joy Division fanboys don't like when I say that lol.

When I saw Peter hook doing both joy division albums in 2022 he opened the new order set with this. As soon as that first note hit I knew exactly what he was playing, I just screamed holy shit he's opening with this, wow!!!! I am so excited to see him again doing both substance albums. 3:13

One couldn’t choose a more appropriate movie’s extract than Lindsay Anderson’s White Bus (1967): black and white (Anton Corbijn and Kevin Cummins), Manchester (although the city is unnamed in White Bus), a discreet and silent beautiful young woman (as Ian Curtis appeared to be) who fantasizes about hanging herself. Disturbing. and what a track: one of the most sensitive-empowering and simply beautiful New Order’s masterpiece.

Letra: En mil islas en el mar Veo mil personas como yo Cien sindicatos en la nieve Los miro caminar, caer en fila Vivimos siempre bajo tierra Esta noche habrá mucho silencio aquí. Mil islas en el mar Es una pena Y hace cien años Un marinero pisó este terreno en el que me encontraba Llévame lejos de todos cuando te duele Desde mi cabeza hasta mis pies De las palabras del libro. Veo una visión que me traería suerte. Desde mi cabeza hasta mis pies Hasta mis dientes, a través de mi nariz Entiendes mal estas palabras Entiendes mal estas palabras Cada vez Entiendes mal estas palabras solo sonrio Pero desde la cabeza hasta los pies Desde mis rodillas hasta mis ojos Cada vez que miro el cielo Por estos últimos días déjame en paz Pero durante estos últimos días déjame en paz. Déjame en paz Déjame en paz

The White Bus was a story of a suicidal young lady who lives another day by taking a trip to northern England, probably Manchester.
