Song of the day for March 7, 2025
Blue Monday by New Order is today’s featured song.
On this day in 1983, New Order released “Blue Monday,” which became the biggest-selling 12-inch single of all time. The Manchester band – who changed their name from Joy Division after the death of singer Ian Curtis in 1980 – took the single into the charts twice in 1983; and a 1988 reissue saw it reach No.1 on the US Hot Club Dance Play chart.
