"Love Will Tear Us Apart" by Iggy Pop & Bernard Sumner of New Order at Carnegie Hall

[@TheBIGxG91]

The rare thing about this footage isn't Iggy joining in on a Joy Division song, but that he's wearing some form of shirt.

[@acanadian80]

HA

[@Max_Flashheart]

She took his shirt lol

[@TheRavenvsv]

I imagine Ian smiling wherever he is watching his hero singing his song :D

[@kevinlakeman5043]

He's hanging out with Bilbo, Chewbacca, and Tyrion Lannister.

[@MissLaceyNoel]

So glad Iggy was a part of this. Ian would have been so happy.

[@weezerman2002]

He hanged himself to a stooges album, so you are 100% correct.

[@weezerman2002]

+no you are 100% right :-)

[@kikeheebchinkjigaboo6631]

Jeremy Bennett the Idiot album

[@niklasnotgreta]

No! Rotating in his grave!

[@GEricG]

Yeah, you have to imagine that he'd have got a kick out of this.

[@DaveSil76]

I'm really sure Ian is so proud that his lifetime hero is now performing his masterpiece. Now, he's sitted on the sky's darkest cloud, smoking a cig, drinking a pint of beer and enjoying it...We miss U, bloke!!!

[@RevolutionButton]

and Ian smiles from wherever he is..

[@erinmacdonald5433]

So awesome to see Bernard and Iggy playing this song together--what a thrill it must have been! Sounds great!

[@Dejahthoris22]

Iggy should have sung lead. He has a gorgeous voice

[@KriztofferSwank]

That's what I got excited for. Letdown.

[@Opalstardream]

Iggy would have saved this song!

[@shruggzdastr8-facedclown]

...especially with how it's matured in his later years.

[@rsands9]

Agreed

[@magiccat4316]

Easier to sing a long a chorus

[@johnmichaelson9173]

I first saw Joy Division at Eric's Liverpool in the Summer of 1978. And there's Iggy singing one of the songs.

[@georgekalogerogiannis6245]

I would love to see Peter Hook & Iggy performing that

[@michellewilliams8188]

My thoughts exactly!

[@viviennetwigg8096]

Iggy the consummate musician with his incredible style

[@luismario273]

I think Summer and Hook have to stop fighting over ego, they are the remnants of Joy Division need to take this into account and only that matters, they overcame worse with Ian's suicide, we just want to see them together and continuing the story there is no more time for vanities.

[@ineffableoracular7260]

Wow, it comes full circle. Ian died listening to Iggy's first solo album, The Idiot, written with and produced by David Bowie(as was Lust For Life) I do hope that Iggy tours the new album, we need at the very least, one last tour from him, Iggy? Wow his left leg injury is really hampering his movement....

[@AM-py3yo]

we're like crystal, we break easy and love, love will tear us apart again

[@lightotw]

Everyone is afraid of the bang-bang-bang beat in the original. I don't know why. That's what made that song stick out with the drama it was about. Without bang-bang-bang it sounds like Happy Birthday To You!

[@angelomaestri-w8u]

grande esibizione, per una magnifica canzone

[@alyssa34]

Ian would have loved this so much even if it isn't amazing to other people, he would have been excited to know Iggy did this.

[@jadefacetiger]

Historic! I could have been there but I wasn't at home at the time. Damn!

[@beniceorbegone]

Beautiful! Bravo!

[@kolohe2790]

Its incredible Ian Curtis killed himself listening to and Iggy Pop album and here is Iggy singing his song. I only wish he could se this and if someone was with him that night to get him thru such a difficult time. We could have more great music from Joy Division...

[@edwingomez5442]

Woww puros grandes!!! Y mi Iggy brillante!! 😍💖

[@skellbert]

Hooky and the lights version of this shits on it from a great height! Hooky sings it with great passion...

[@nikduffield5457]

Yep....Barney doesn't do it justice, if anything it is a song Iggy could and should have sung the lead his voice suits it perfectly

[@andyreeve4711]

Iggy just couldn't help going...all Iggy..haha.. love it.. great post ;))

[@jatakaworld]

The entire night was amazing. I'm still on a high from it. I don't think the actual sound quality from Carnegie can be caught in recording... although thrilled to have these videos here!

[@morizenfoche]

shoulda just let Iggy sing the whole thing

[@timdickson171]

Er no ! Guess vocalist invited by the bloke who wrote the music

[@angelomaestri-w8u]

nulla da aggiunger, una delle piu belle canzoni. un augurio a tutti

[@michael___________________]

Iggy Pop and Ian Curtis are two of my all time favorites. Saw Iggy several times between 1979 and 2013 live on stage. Sadly I did not made it to see Ian. Coming to this video: It sucks! Some songs need no coverversions. Now I'm going to clean my ears with the original.

[@Yakovlievich]

Consider who Ian was listening to when he hung himself . . . .

[@marcconsalib7325]

fuck i hadnt even thought about that

[@lizlilly6756]

Carnegie Hall? It looks like they’re performing in a high school gymnasium.

[@davejohns3602]

very moving performance

[@paddlepop777]

And Iggy kept his shirt on!

[@SantaDeerhound]

It's like Dad's playing their new guitars at a coffee morning. At least Hooky does it properly.

[@AmpsforBuddha]

So Good!

[@pikeywyatt]

i still go back to the original, but all the other,s are excellent.i just hope other people keep making new interpretations.i wish to hear them all .

[@RebelDzns]

I feel the same way

[@Taffy84]

Heard the Swans version? It is the best cover of this song.

[@The_PainofBeingAMan]

This is like Ringo Starr performing "Let It Be" with Billy Joel...except Ringo Starr sings while Billy Joel wiggles around in the background.

[@cesarelrei]

grande iggy pop

[@viviennetwigg8096]

True artists

[@skyunderliner]

It's like a school band playing to their school but with old people. This genuinely makes me scared of ageing

[@iwodygot]

Because nothing has changed in their lives since that time. They are still sensitive young at heart folks playin' beautiful songs written in the garage. Everything more is rock'n'roll illusion.

[@jrkchannel37]

Iggy Pop graced a great song

[@filipmerveillie8339]

Iggy as background singer? Heck, no way he'd STAY background! 😁

[@ragheadand420roll]

new order without hooky is like a new order COVER BAND

[@beastieboy9286]

It was bernard sumner & iggy not new order

[@dunelmian-slinger]

I refuse to acknowledge post-2007 New Order. They should've done the honourable thing and disbanded or renamed.

[@matoko123]

Just add the original synth line and you've got yourself a hit!!! Maybe release it for charity?

one day i think iggy might buy a shirt... or maybe not

[@brucehubbard4546]

Iggy is so unlike Bernard Summer, 1. he can sing, 2. he is not fake, 3 is also real.

[@Longpigmss]

I'm guessing Iggy didn't know any more of the words!

[@bottytoohotty]

This is one of the most Ironic performances in music history. Bizarre but poetic.

Wow.

[@davidellis5141]

Ok Wow!! Why not...

[@angelomaestri-w8u]

Canzone senza tempo 👌

[@neoisis9373]

the concept of Iggy singing Ian’s song is cool. The execution was less than inspired. Would have loved to see Iggy sing the whole thing, but he probably didn’t know the rest and didn’t want to have to stand up there reading the lyrics

[@sherylF5610]

Like he could not have learned them?

[@scaunter]

most interesting version since swans 1987

[@Epitaphforyesterday]

that's cool that iggy took the back seat for this and proper. i still would've liked it more if he would've done all the vocals here. its not that much of a departure from some of his songs on american caesar.

[@niklasnotgreta]

"It's better I'm gone so early before getting a silly old man!" Ian 😉

[@keitholdbean3173]

Death will tear us apart again...

[@TheBoyCalledHedge]

Great front-singer union !

[@sinthiajarr4079]

I wish ian Curtis could have seen this

[@TweedSuit]

Sheesh why is Sumner singing when Iggy is up there??

[@sherzodakhmedov6343]

apparently Iggy doesn’t know the lyrics

[@MrLightning59]

So glad I've seen the real thing! This is emotionless!

[@JasCeeGee]

Barney shouting “Come on!” ruins it. It’s a thing that Hooky said he truly disliked about it.

[@rabit818]

I love New Order, but Bernard Sumner still can't sing live after all these years

[@albertorkenbjorken]

agreed.. this is so horrible and sloppy.. i cant believe how many likes this has.. its so bad..

[@Pstaines439]

rabit818 it's as nearly as bad as his lyric writing

[@willvaughan3936]

rabit818 that's the beauty of it... He didn't have a clue what was happening.

You’re having a laugh mate

[@cynicallydepressed1]

I LOVE Joy Division... I LOVE New Order... I have NO problem with Iggy Pop... THIS...THIS...'version'...is...just wretched. I'm sad somebody recorded this...

[@mjdomicello]

Me and my brother were at this show Iggy pop should not have been on stage And believe it or not of the total of 4 songs they did this was the best They destroyed your silent face By having a poem read over the music

[@CM-1723]

British bands are the best

[@andillusional]

Bernard Sumner of „New Order“… I mean even the track is from JD

[@skyeisthebeesknees]

I saw the thumbnail and thought it was a middle school battle of the bands in a basketball court and they really thought that Iggy pop and Barnard sumner wrote this song

[@ckev18]

this version seems to lack the energy the original used to have.....pounding base...the drums and the tempo.....

[@radiofloyd2359]

@The ABC Jug Band that's the recording. I can vaguely make the bass out, so it was probably fairly loud.

[@jumofi]

Hooky's absence

[@w5winston]

Oh, please somebody have a better recording of this????

[@birdineye]

it's so ironic i'm dying

[@JasCeeGee]

Crap sound on the camera mic. Barney wrote about this in his book, but embellished a lot on how Iggy sung his part.

[@jarodcasano881]

WilliamBurroughs on drums

[@scotchbroth100]

TBH if Iggy Pop had kept his mouth shut during the performance and not uttered a word the song would have sounded exactly the same, he did not exactly bring anything to the performance!

[@sheenapunk9408]

does the red-head girl in the back really look like marcia cross or?

It may seem like Hollywood bullshit but this performance is really inspiring.... 2 Legends performing together.

Louis O'Halloran hooky would never try to be so cool.

[@DbeeM]

Iggy looks a bit bored , thinking “so this how that pop shit goes” “ho hum “..... Until he can’t take anymore, and brings the energy to the song, With some classic iggy body gyrations and attitude.

Lo veo y no lo creo........ Ian Curtis descansa en paz donde quiera que estes.

[@Nobodyreallyatall]

Funny how Iggy looks like a rock star and the younger Bernard looks like his boring older uncle. Peter Hook has made a fool of himself, no doubt, but Bernard is an awful live performer anymore. Every recent video I see of Bernard Sumner, I just feel embarrassed watching him. It's an "emperor's new clothes" situation with Bernard... some patronize him, I just want to avert my eyes.
