“I don’t want to be in the band anymore. ‘Unknown Pleasures’ was it. I was happy. I never meant for it to grow like this. When I’m up there singing… they don’t understand how much I give. And how it affects me. Now they want more. They expect me to give more. And I don’t know if I can.

It’s like it’s not happening to me, but… someone pretending to be me, someone dressed in my skin. Now we’re going to America. I have no control anymore.

I don’t know what to do.”

Ian Curtis
