Sorry...I am very anal and have OCD. I realized too late that there were some typos. My sickness required me to rewrite this....I should learn to write stuff in Word first....


I fell in
Into a hole too deep to climb out of
The walls were slick with the sweat of demons

I fell in
Into a fiery furnace fueled by hate and fear
The sweat was like gasoline and the fire burned forever

I never landed
I never crashed...I just burned
With the souls of the damned and the forgotten downtrodden

I rode forever
This burning wormhole never killed me
I was already dead and eternally on fire in this unholy rollercoaster

Iam new here and noticed your avatar obviously, but you need as a individual need to let go of Ian as perhaps a prop?
But then again I do not know you, and the melancholy of Closer,Unknown Pleasures, Movement, and in general New Order to the present has ensured I feel not a complete alien on Earth.



Hey Doc. Nice to meet another fan of my music. Ian isn't a prop. Ian is Ian. I just use his image as an avatar. I am fascinated with young people that die and especially those that take their own lives. Call it a hobby....

My brother died when he was only 21...maybe that has something to do with it.

I also think Ian Curtis was a genius and it's a shame the world didn't get to see his gift progress. But we weren't meant to were we. He was happy with Unknown Pleasures and would have prefered to end it there. He was happy with Transmission, Dead Souls, Atmosphere, etc....

His problem was he wanted to please everyone. Life is rough when you can't say no. One creates a lot of pain for oneself. I have to give him a lot of praise for setting up the rest of the band for success. I liked New Order when they were out and recording and touring, etc. I listened to them all through the eighties and early nineties. Then I got sick of them. Ian Curtis was the artist and the rest of the band were the musicians. Those musicians went on to some serious success thanks to Ian...but the art was lost.

Lately I've been listening to Joy Divison a lot. Tanita Tikaram, Mighty Lemon Drops, Grant Lee Buffalo. Have been re-enjoying Split Enz, Human Sexual Response, Killing Joke, X....and whatever else I can find in the same genre(s)....I love 3-11 and Cake....Live's first album will always be a top ten for me....One of Katherine Wheel's first albums, if not the first, is one of the best albums ever made. (it's the one with Texture on it among other great songs...)
