Agreed.
It might be that they're textured in a way that's not particularly visible in photographs, but catches the light when viewed in 'real world' circumstances.
But, yeah, they look pretty 'subtle' in those photos.
Anyone seen House of Gucci?
Good cast and directed by Ridley Scott. Long at 2hrs38 and it felt every minute of it. A bit too "soap opera" for my tastes, but a good looking film and it had some decent artists on the soundtrack, including:
Eurythmics Donna Summer (I counted 4 tracks) Black Machine (I bet you remember How Gee even if you don't think you do.) Blondie Bowie And during a 1983 Milan catwalk show, a track by NO. NO prizes for guessing which track.
Joy division spotting in space, not on the Astronaut' playlist but among albums with space themed covers:
70 songs for 70 years of the NME. Usual suspects at 17 and 21 (a chronology more than a chart).

Handwritten lyrics by Joy Division's Ian Curtis and items from Granada TV's history are among the first objects in a new British Pop Archive.
A set of Curtis's lyrics, notebooks and letters is in the collection with the entire archive of Granada, which made shows like Coronation Street.
The British Pop Archive will be housed in Manchester's John Rylands Library.
The new HBO/HBOMAX documentary Tony Hawk: Until the Wheels Fall Off has a two-fer w/ Love Will Tear Us Apart, and then Age of Consent a little later on.

Not strictly NO spotting but they got a mention on the radio the other day.David Walliams on Radio 2 last week on Zoe Ball's breakfast show ( no i'm not a fan of it but it was on at work).Walliams talked about when on the very first night of the stage show version of Little Britain back in 2005 New Order, The Pet Shop Boys and Johnny Marr all came to see the first show of the tour.This, Walliams said made him a little nervous as members of his 3 favourite bands ever were in the audience on the first night.Never had David Walliams down as a big New Order fan but hey, it seems he is.
Hmmm.
Appears that I missed this Hooky collaboration:
Wonder how many tracks he's done with her.
Edit:
There's also this:
Have just read an interview where they say that Hook features on three tracks of this film's soundtrack.

Melanie Williams is clearly talented, but it's just not to my taste.
Two of her contributions to The Other Two Super Highways album were chosesn as the singles (You Can Fly and Super Highways) and I thought they sounded a bit awkward and generic. Cold Feet, One Last Kiss (the best of her collaborations with them) and Ripple are the ones I'd have gone with.
A couple of upcoming interviews/documentaries featuring Hooky:

If anyone enjoys a daily heardle quiz - there is now a JD/NO specific one
The original Heardle had LWTUA over the weekend but is was a version I'd not heard before - and I've heard a lot of versions of LWTUA over the years.

Indie At The BBC programme on BBC2 last Saturday night. Compilation of old clips ( was this an old repeat?)
Temptation from the August 84 BBC Rock Around The Clock bash was shown. Thing is they included Richard Skinner's intro to the programme at the start of the clip and I thought oh they're going to show Age Of Consent from the performance but then jumped straight onto Temptation. They cut it at the false end so omitted Barney's " Oh it's the last time, it fuckin' is!" from the later part of the clip.
Interesting to see the video quality. It did look VHS and it was mentioned in the caption about the original BBC tape no longer existed so they used a VHS recording. You could tell the poorer quality compared to the other clips in the programme.
True Faith Pettibone remix over end credits of episode 2 of AIDS: The Forgotten Tapes on BBC2.Think only the first episode has been aired but I watched all 3 on iplayer .You kind of forget now what a massive scary thing AIDS was in the 80s.Old footage in the series really takes you back to that time.
Confusion 1983 Arthur Baker instrumental on 6Music this morning.I think Stuart Maconie meant to play Confusion main mix but played the instrumental by mistake.Or it could have even been Confused Beats, i get hazy on which is which with those 1983 mixes.Sounded cool on the radio though, either way.Part of 6Music's all day 80s rave today.

Rolling Stone Magazine: 200 greatest dance songs of all time. The fact that they said "songs" rather than tracks probably isn't a good sign. There's a mixture of good and bad in here. And of course some of the good stuff is ranked way below some of the bad stuff. BM is at No 7 No. 18, and a track that was on N.O.'s Back To Mine comp is at No 1. So there's that. [If you don't wanna scroll from No 200 there's a shortcut along the top breaking the list up into segments.]
Also
Was listening to this week's BBC Essential Mix from Vintage Culture. At 1hr,3 mins; Blue Monday. I thought it was Vintage Culture's own edit but it turns out to be the Freemasons mix - which is actually Shazam-able. I don't think I realised that the Freemasons remix was kinda official, but maybe I just didn't care... If you're outside the UK you can also listen here, though I can't really recommend Vintage Culture's 2-hour mix as a whole.
I've discovered Tom (Peel) Ravenscroft's "Ravers Hour" - Friday nights on 6 Music, thanks to the BBC Sounds app. Now THAT'S an hour of banging tunes in the mix.

Umm, it's #18? It should be in the top 10, and NO WAY is Disclosure's Latch a bigger dance anthem than Madonna's Vogue.
Of course we know these lists are always subjective.
Music includes: AOC - NO BM - NO
"Work It (Soulwax Remix) - Marie Davidson "Someone Great" - LCD Soundsystem "The Cutter" - Echo & The Bunnymen "Spit on a Stranger" - Pavement "Golden Years" - David Bowie and eh, Bon Jovi, Debbie Gibson, Cher...
We all know these lists don't really mean much. But it's still satisfying to see New Order and Joy Division mixing it up with the more mainstream artists in the upper reaches.

Steve is the focus of the latest 'Electronically Yours' podcast from Martyn Ware. Presumably available through all major podcast providers (it's on Apple Podcasts, for example).
An hour and 25 minutes long interview with him. Should be good...

Good spot. Hooky did one of these too back in May 2021. You can just press play on Ep104 in this link and scroll back through the others too, if you like.
EDIT: Steve twittered about it:
[TWITTER]1560254202563149825[/TWITTER]
Gave the podcast a listen. Pretty good though i got a little lost on some of the tech chat.Stephen is writing another book? Or a novel, not clear. And there's a lot of swearing on podcasts these days isn't there? Is it necessary? Browsed through what other guests Martyn Ware has had on and there's an episode with Roger Lyons. Might give that a go , wonder if he talks at all about his work on revamping and programming for the live version of Blue Monday back in the early 2000s. Also an episode with Will Sargeant and many more

Listened to the Roger Lyons ep. He didn't talk about his work on the live version of BM but did mention about Bernard's autocue failing at the 2005 Hyde Park gig. Moisture had got in the laptops and Bernard spent the whole gig just singing "la la la because he couldn't remember the lyrics" . Eh? I was at that gig and Bernard sang all the lyrics fairly well from what i recall.Deffo that gig because Roger mentioned that they were playing Glastonbury the next day.
