![]() ![]() Then, love finally tore Ian apart from us, after having emotionally torn him apart, on the eve of his first trip out of Europe. So when one hears “us” in this refrain, consider the term to indicate “all of us” or “both of us” or “me from the band” or “me from all of you” or “all of you from me”. Certainly the tragic story of Ian wasn’t unique among musicians or among most of us. Many of our careers and agenda lead us into directions away from our loved ones, and often into the arms of others we find there. More broadly interpreted, the lyrics reflect the universality of the tenuous nature of all of our relationships. The title is an ironic reference to Captain & Tennille’s “Love Will Keep Us Together”. Ian fell in love with Annik and the affair weighed heavily on him. Debbie remained at home with their child and Ian had an affair with a Belgian woman by the name of Annik Honoré. The lyrics ostensibly reflect the problems in Ian Curtis’s marriage to Deborah Curtis, as well as his general frame of mind in the time leading up to his suicide in May 1980.Ĭurtis was not faithful to his wife while touring with Joy Division. ![]()

Wells wrote in quick succession, starting in 1894 at a desk in a Sevenoaks boarding-house: The Time Machine, The Island of Doctor Moreau, The Invisible Man and The War of the Worlds.
