New Order's voice and Primal Scream's voice, in the same song.
Released on 8 October 1999, it reached No. 21 in the UK.34 Bernard Sumner sings and plays guitar; Bobby Gillespie adds vocals. The video is by W.I.Z.54
NME at the time called it the best collaboration Sumner had ever sung on.7
Twenty years later, in 2019, the 20th-anniversary Surrender included a 21-minute mix of it. The same year, Kate Gibb and others made a new video for The Avalanches' remix.84
A No. 21 song came back twenty years later as twenty-one minutes. I like the numbers so much that whenever I tell this story, I stop here for a moment.
Translated from the Japanese original.
