Shortly after Ian Curtis's suicide and with little material of their own to release, New Order put out this Joy Division cover. The sound is still reminiscent of Joy Division and the band had not yet adopted a style of their own. The result is probably one of their finest singles. What makes it even more impressive is that the B-Side is even better. Though they later hit the highlights with "Blue Monday", they never really got much better than this, and the further they drifted from their post punk roots the more of an anonymous outfit they gradually became.
What I will say is that this is a fantastic single, and in my view the B-Side, "In A Lonely Place", is probably one of the best B-Sides ever produced.
