Confession time - I don't own
Joy Division Oven Gloves by the legends that are
Half Man Half Biscuit.
No this track has been taken from a great ICA over at
JC's place
It strikes me that you could do a whole namecheck series from the songs penned by
Nigel Blackwell although I would have to draw the line at
Bono!
A further confession - I think this may be the first time that
Joy Division have featured on CCM.
There has been much love out there in our small corner of the blogosphere recently for
Transmission so I have opted for
Love Will Tear Us Apart
More namechecking next Saturday
Half Man Half Biscuit - Joy Division Oven Gloves
Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart
You could've gone with an addendum to yesterday's post and featured 'I Love You Because (You Look Like Jim Reeves)'.
ReplyDeleteNow your talking
ReplyDeleteNero fiddles while Gordon Burns
ReplyDeleteI hate Nerys Hughes.
ReplyDeleteBut yes, another fine choice. So much better than Let's Dance To Joy Division by The Wombats.
Other JD references I could find were...
Losing My Edge by LCD Sound System (but that's a list song, so it's full of refs).
Mike Kalinsky by Clem Snide.
Damaged Kids by Broadside.
And, I suppose you could also have...
Ian Curtis by Thursday.
I'm sure we'll get through all the HNHB namechecks between us, CC! Top choice, by the way. Makes me want to seek out and visit a post-punk postcard fair
