"No words could explain, no actions determine Just watching the trees and the leaves as they fall". I can't help but cry when this line comes. It gives me existential dread.
I saw Hooky live last summer and he played this as the opener to his JD set. All the lights went out and that haunting bass line came in. I was immediately transported - this song is so powerful.
This song is said to have been inspired by a child with Down's syndrome who lived near Ian. He is writing from the point of view of the child and seems to be narrating the inner thoughts of one who feels forever trapped without the means to properly communicate with others. This song is so unique in the abbreviated JD catalog and offers a fleeting glimpse of the unchartered territory that might have been covered on later albums.
Peter was asked this very question in a Reddit AMA, just yesterday, feb 7 2022, he replied to question of whether it was about a child with downs, “ I wasn’t aware it was about anything in particular “. He added, “she’s lost control was about an epilepsy sufferer like Ian”.
Interesting. I always interpreted the lyrics as a response to what Ian was going through at the time. Arguments with Deborah, trying to raise his baby during the demands of making a record, seeing no way out of his situation and considering suicide.
Everytime I hear this song, I get memories of my Mother passing and how her health deteriorated over time. But it also puts me in a very vivid vision of being in a cemetary that is in a windy forest during autumn time while I think about her. It really makes me question what my fate will be and if everything I'm doing is worth it in the end. No song has ever made me feel emotions as hard as this.
Same. This hits very hard and in a way that no other song ever has or ever will. I think of my mother as well in the same setting. Your imagery is spot on and makes me think of my own mortality.
You got me thinking now -- surely everything we do hast to be worth it when we do it (?) Which makes me realise how much I do that isn't "worth it" ...
The decision was made? Gutwrenching.......as a childhood Catholic , I pray beyond belief his cardinal sin of suicide is redeemed and Ian lives in true joy in the hereafter.
The most melancholic song i've ever heard, i listened this when i was experienced the extraordinary feel and it's been is such quickly and i listened this song over and over again. Applause to Curtis, that's text and feelings unforgettable👏
@Bryan Mack "at least everyone else would" So, what? Once you are dead you are dead. So, what other people are experiencing will be irrelevant, because the dead can't experience anything.
I feel almost hypnotised by the beauty and yet an overwhelming feeling of despair when I lose myself in this track. The effects that I’m guessing Martin took the liberty of adding are chilling, the chirping and rattling, it’s exhausting, otherworldly and suffocating all at once 😮 I love this band so much more than any other.
@@royjones4400Absolutely, what a shame he didn’t get to go on and have a good life and career. Always remember Tony Wilson recalling how Martin knocked on his door long after Ian passed, in tears saying Ian’s fucking gone and then walking off into the night. 🙁
One has to keep in mind that the main inspiration for this song is Ian's neighbor, who had Down's Syndrome. He used to see him in the garden as a child and when he grew up his life hadn't changed at all. I think in a way, he really empathized with this kid because we know that Ian felt really bad that he wasn't able to live like the adults around him. He couldn't drink much, couldn't have intimate relationships, had to be taken care of and he hated to be in this situation. He regretted getting married and his illness made him regret having a child. I think the song is called The Eternal in reference to this neighbor, who never changed and remained the same, while other people lived and died (the first stanza seems like the description of a funeral this child witnesses, people die but the child stays the same).
This song and Decades drag me to the darkest and most depressive limit of everything I have lived. It is surprising that some musical notes, Ian's mystique and the lyrics take me to that unfathomable universe.
@@FroMaMinD nah I.think you need to read again. I understand foreigners have a problem with irony and sarcasm. You're just not sophisticated enough in your thinking.
Timeless music by JD. A beautiful Requiem. Sad that Ian Curtis couldn't grow up to experience an older age that he was so brilliant at expressing in his twenties.
His please didn't fall on deaf ears, this was 40 years ago....People had no understanding and they were just kids. Only he really knew, and nobody understood. Tragic but nobody's fault. He was, in his way, a musical genius. RIP
Ppl were exactly the same 40 years ago. You have got to be a kid or a 20 something living under this illusion we live in more enlightened times. Put it this way, Taylor swift and the 19fkin75 wouldn't have made the top 10,000 40 years ago.
Well said Mate, ians illnesses, barring epilepsy, they didn't know much about it, plus back then you just got on with it, and Ian was a NORTHERNER TO BOOT, BEST FRONTMAN EVER EVER EVER, SIMPLE HAS, REST PEACEFULLY IAN KEVIN CURTIS. FOREVER MISSED. 🇮🇲👍🇮🇲
what the f++k are you saying? every critic in the world give 5/5 to this album.For the common people, suicidal feelings are not an easy thing to hear in every moment... if that's what you mean, but the universal ratings of the album are very very high.
It's because of Joy Division and the present day "New Order" That had some contributions to my interest in music, but this song in particular hits different... I only listen to it when I really truly reach a low point in my life. It makes me feel a sense that I am not alone but yet I feel alone, it's interesting feeling. But I will say, this song is a masterpiece.
It's odd, I always come back to this. I can't help but sympathize with the lyrics, I feel lost. I watch as all my friends around me continue to go down a gradual decline and my partner continues to fall further and further, i'm watching everyone I love and hold so close fall further and further, while I can only just sit here idle and watch. I appreciate this song so much for always being a way for me to cope even if everything is falling apart.
This song is the one I hear the least from them, I just don't dare. Only a few times have I heard it in full. I don't know if it happens to someone else, but I consider it to be one of the best songs they made, so dark and beautiful at the same time.
Procession moves on, the shouting is over Praise to the glory of loved ones now gone Talking aloud as they sit round their tables Scattering flowers washed down by the rain Stood by the gate at the foot of the garden Watching them pass like clouds in the sky Try to cry out in the heat of the moment Possessed by a fury that burns from inside Cry like a child, though these years make me older With children my time is so wastefully spent A burden to keep, though their inner communion Accept like a curse an unlucky deal Played by the gate at the foot of the garden My view stretches out from the fence to the wall No words could explain, no actions determine Just watching the trees and the leaves as they fall
Hearing this song when all is blossoms and flowers i know te time we have is not for always Yesterday our dog died in a accident Enjoy live and people and youre pets around you when they're with you Tomorrow Youre loved one's can just be a memory💔😥🙏
When Ian died, I played this album over and over again trying to figure out why, I wanted so much to see them live but it was not to be! Every time I hear any track from closer it brings tears to my eyes!
@@thealmostshining3907 he says it’s a great song, with a dreamlike quality and his favourite lyric. He praises Stephen’s drums, Bernard’s keyboard playing, Ian’s vocals and Martin Hannet’s production. He points out how powerful the interplay was between them and how he thinks they may never have that again
@@thealmostshining3907 also extremely interesting are Tim’s Twitter Listening Parties for Unknown Pleasures, Closer and Still, on which Peter Hook himself tweeted along the albums giving incredible detail and insight about the making of every song. Those Twitter events w/Hook already happened, but you can replay them on a dedicated website (just google it)
Ian wasn't lying when he said he believed Joy Division reached their pinnacle after Closer. He knew they couldn't get any better after recording "In a lonely place".
Tú lo has dicho, es de las mejores. Puedo decir que es de mis favoritas. Me encanta lo bien que está todo combinado, la música, la letra, la voz, y yo que tengo miedo a morir, esta canción a pesar de ser tan triste me hace sentir nostálgica pero sin miedo.🌹💀
Not least known to me..but then I'm from the same area and grew up while they were around. It's only not well known to the younger generation, the one who think Kanye west is a genius.
Il video è di una semplicità unica, e abbinato al testo che scorre durante la canzone, crea un effetto ipnotico. Bellissimo, e poi la Canzone è proprio struggente.
Don’t think so mate. Pretty sure this is a personal thing, like so many lyrics he wrote. Becoming a father without wanting it . The responsibility etc. Know the feeling. Ian was a young man when he committed suicide. Who really knows what was going on in his head. Even his closest mates did not see it coming so....RIP Ian and thanks for the songs you have left us with. They help us all.
Aldo muchas gracias un abrazo para todos los componentes de grupo Hepta muchas gracias por vuestro gran trabajo para el público es único y muy positivo feliz entrada en el 2024
Yes. A Minor with a slowly descending bass line. If you've ever heard Arvo Part's "Cantus In Memoriam Benjamin Britten" (which is pretty much the saddest piece of classical music ever written) it does the same thing - all the instruments work down the chord of A Minor in octaves until they can go no lower and they hit rock bottom. The speed at which they descend depends on their pitch, so the basses get to the bottom of their range last. The final moments when they drop onto their lowest, and last, notes against an entire orchestra a playing low A is absolutely devastating - and exactly the effect you're hearing in this song. The *actual* last note of Arvo's piece is a muffled bell, whose overtone plays a major third, not the minor you'd be expecting - this is a Picardy third, a musical device used in religious music since the Renaissance. The idea is to show that in the midst of all that medieval fear and dread of God's wrath, there is still hope of redemption and paradise. So the song, no matter how devout, ends on a positive, hopeful major chord, not a minor fearful minor one. And that's also what happens at the end of "The Eternal" - against a sustained low chord, the bass goes *up* in the last bar before settling back into place. A little shaft of musical light into the gloom, mirroring hundreds of years worth of religious musical observance. Even if you've got no idea what a Picardy third is, most people have heard enough music to know what it does and to react to it - it's an emotional musical folk memory. That's why this song works the way it does, and why it's perfect for it's slot in the track listing - second to last, hitting the depths, with its final chord giving us all hope that there may be something better, more hopeful coming. We're emotionally invested in the last song, "Decades", before it's begun. I have no idea whether four lads from Manchester in the 70s knew what they were doing when they wrote and arranged this song, but they hit on a musical framework which is very old and very deep and very beautiful, and it's great to see that these centuries old musical techniques still have an impact today.
Pure Poetry from a Man who suffered tragically. RIP Ian Kevin Curtis. 😢
This is a truly great song. Depressing as hell mind you, but depressing in a way that somehow leaves you feeling uplifted.
"No words could explain, no actions determine
Just watching the trees and the leaves as they fall". I can't help but cry when this line comes. It gives me existential dread.
same feeling
👍
All this time later I'm even more amazed now at what they produced in 1980. Its incredible! Musical poetry that is so dark yet powerful.
still actual more than ever ;)
Is a voice of a dead man still living, he's already away and nothing can keep him back
Masterpiece. Sounds like a man who has lost hope and is at the end of his tether.

Well, it’s kinda why I’ve been staying away from rap for the most part. Nobody seems capable of making a mature song about Down syndrome.
@the2ndcoming135 lol u been searching for a rap song about down syndrome?
The best song from Joy Division, the one that defines what the band is
New dawn fades was their best song. And it's not up for discussion. I'm simply right. The end.
YES New Dawn Fades - But in the end, they're are just so many, that anything Ian Curtis was involved in was the best! RIP Ian@@DarrenLamb-on3py
Twenty Four Hours has always been my personal favourite but everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
So dark, so beautiful ... timeless
Sometimes I think this is the saddest, most beautiful song ever recorded. At other times it’s Decades, Atmosphere or In a lonely place.
This and Decades are the standout Joy Division songs for me. 42 years old and hasn't aged at all.
For sure it is the saddest

Procession moves on, the shouting is over
Praise to the glory of loved ones now gone
Talking aloud as they sit round their tables
Scattering flowers washed down by the rain
Stood by the gate at the foot of the garden
Watching them pass like clouds in the sky
Try to cry out in the heat of the moment
Possessed by a fury that burns from inside
Cry like a child, though these years make me older
With children my time is so wastefully spent
A burden to keep, though their inner communion
Accept like a curse an unlucky deal
Played by the gate at the foot of the garden
My view stretches out from the fence to the wall
No words could explain, no actions determine
Just watching the trees and the leaves as they fall

The *actual* last note of Arvo's piece is a muffled bell, whose overtone plays a major third, not the minor you'd be expecting - this is a Picardy third, a musical device used in religious music since the Renaissance. The idea is to show that in the midst of all that medieval fear and dread of God's wrath, there is still hope of redemption and paradise. So the song, no matter how devout, ends on a positive, hopeful major chord, not a minor fearful minor one.
And that's also what happens at the end of "The Eternal" - against a sustained low chord, the bass goes *up* in the last bar before settling back into place. A little shaft of musical light into the gloom, mirroring hundreds of years worth of religious musical observance. Even if you've got no idea what a Picardy third is, most people have heard enough music to know what it does and to react to it - it's an emotional musical folk memory. That's why this song works the way it does, and why it's perfect for it's slot in the track listing - second to last, hitting the depths, with its final chord giving us all hope that there may be something better, more hopeful coming. We're emotionally invested in the last song, "Decades", before it's begun.
I have no idea whether four lads from Manchester in the 70s knew what they were doing when they wrote and arranged this song, but they hit on a musical framework which is very old and very deep and very beautiful, and it's great to see that these centuries old musical techniques still have an impact today.
My favorite song on the album.
