Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart
What the very ****???????

Now Im a big Joy Division fan and Hookys bass playing on 'Love will tear us apart' is easily in the mix for GOAT.

However it is in no way whatsoever 'funky', in fact its the diametric opposite of funky.

Haven't really looked at the rest of the list yet but id strap yourself in folks as if there is any more examples like this im im going to enter Chernobyl levels of melting.

Btw. Chappyuk is there one particular Streetwalker that stands out from the cavalcade of whores?

Not playing this round, but nice to see this old favourite in the list.

For those who don't know, this song was written as an ode to an Irish friend of the band, but they couldn't quite remember Sean's surname.
