November 7 - Blue Monday

New Order and synthpop was not by thing in the 80s. Yeah, I listened to some of it, but I was really in the camp that was the 80s equivalent of the 70s "disco sucks" movement. However, I have come to see the error of my ways, and I have found myself getting some of the music I made it a point to disown in the 80s. Some of these songs are so unbelievably catchy, and New Order's drum machine extravaganza Blue Monday is absolutely one of them.
