jens lekman + radiohead


jens lekman

Jens Lekman visits the Granada Theater in Dallas on Tuesday night. You can still win tickets here, and one winner will also get a copy of Jens' excellent new album, Night Falls Over Kortedala, on both CD and vinyl. I'll notify the winners on Monday.

Jens Lekman You are the Light

elsewhere:

Moka posts her thoughts on In Rainbows, and offers a "face-to-face comparison" of 5 songs from the album and their "close relatives." Well done.

"Ceremony" is a Joy Division song NOT a New Order song! Ian died before it was brought into the studio. Do your research!

Anon(1): I'm pretty sure the mighty Radiohead had NO's version in mind, as the Joy Division demo is rather primitive and rough. It's a JD song that gave birth to a NO song and is best known (and heard) as the latter.

Anyways, thanks Chris, I completely missed day two. Stupid job; being afk for 9 hours...

To the another anonymous user above me.
Get over yourself. The song was released by New Order. It was never ever released by Joy Division, it was only played live once. It is the link between New Order and Joy Division, but technically a New Order song.
Now shut up and go back to fellating your wax sculpture of Ian Curtis.

anonymous (11:55) I've done some of my own research, and I've discovered that you are an insufferable little bitch.

final word: this is a cover of (one of) the NO version(s), the vocal melody on the chorus of the JD version (available on Heart and Soul) is different
