New Order - Regret

Is anyone else really tired of those stupid 15 second commercials on YouTube videos yet? Weren't those side panel advertisements enough? Is it weird that one of the most common advertisers are the Mormons, a religious group? I mean really, do you want to join a supposed house of worship that wastes thousands of dollars on really annoying online commercials? I just don't get it.

I haven't posted any New Order yet, so today seems a good day to do that, for no good reason other than I haven't yet. This is the remainder of the old Joy Division, a band destined for greatness that lost its lead singer Ian Curtis to suicide before they had even released their second album. Not to say that the new band didn't succeed, just the opposite really. Most music aficionados will point to them, both in original and later form, as being one of, if no the, most influential post-punk new wave rock bands of the past 30-odd years. This was the first song that hooked me in, a catchy yet thoughtful single that reached the top of the charts in 1993. See what you think.

I also really hate when people disable embedding...
