New Order and the Story of Blue Monday | Poetic Wax
Blue Monday was a joke. A mistake. New Order never intended for the song to be a hit. In this week’s episode of Poetic Wax, Andy pulls out the 1988 pressing of Blue Monday. This is the surprising history of the song that blended alt rock, new wave, and electronic dance music and changed the course of music history.
