@[acidjack:28002] Never heard or read that before. Been a fan since 1980. Seen them over 30 times live. I'd know if that was the meaning of the lyrics.

New Order – Blue Monday Lyrics

@[clamchips:28000] Total BS! Nothing to do with Curtis. In an interview after Blue Monday was released. Sumner said that 'Pounds, shillings and pence was a big influence'. Seeing that the English money had already been decimalised the comment doesn't make sense until you understand that pounds, shillings and pence was abbreviated to LSD. They often took small amounts of acid in the studio to spark creativity around this period. The Blue Monday lyrics refer to and mean nothing.

In the Aja documentary, Rainey even says he had to sneak the slap element in as the band didn't want him to use it.
