Aug 23, 2008 - wow..this is horrible. Don't get me wrong I like radiohead as much as the next guy but come on...there is no way tom yorke can sing an ian curtis song. this is both painful and embarrassing.

Aug 27, 2008 - Whatever, people only lick Ian Curtis's ass because he died so young. It's the same shit with Hendrix, Morrison, Joplin, Tupac, Big, the list goes on. Radiohead far exceed Curtis in all categories. I'm not even a huge Radiohead fan, I actually like Joy Division more but I recognize Radiohead overshadows them tremendously.

Sep 5, 2008 - Disagree strongly with the comment from Placount, and do not like the way it's phrased either. As much as I love Radiohead, Joy Division will always hold a very special place in my heart. I was still a teenager when I saw JD only 3 months before Ian took his own life, and love Radiohead now, but the two bands belong to two very different times and it is (in my opinion) very unfair to make any comparisons between them. "Unknown Pleasures" and "Closer" will stand as true classics, always.

Sep 8, 2008 - i actually think there's a lot of truth to what placount said, although i don't agree with the way he worded it. an artist's taking his own life or dying prematurely surely affects the audience's perception of their art. i can guarantee you, had Yorke killed himself after OK Computer, he would have been hailed the same way as Curtis, Cobain, Lennon, etc. luckily he's still alive and making brilliant music, and Radiohead are legends for all the right reasons.

Sep 9, 2008 - This is Radioheads version, it isnt Ian Curtis singing from Joy Division, so why fucking argue? Im a huge JD fan, but Ian died and this cover is no mockery, its full of feel and life, I love listening to this! JD fans time after time complain and complain, but if Curtis himself were still alive I dont think he'd be all defendent, id think tbh he be thrilled his music is still heavily appreciated, and how much influence its had on bands such as Radiohead.
Leeboiprophets Says:
Sep 9, 2008 - not all covers have to be tampered with, Radiohead simply love this song and wanted to play it the way it is. Im a huge JD fan but I feel to many of JD fans are so critical over simple things
