| Release Notes |
33rpm B-side on original 7" release.
Tracks 2-3 recorded at Pennine Sound Studios, Oldham, January 8, 1980.
Track 1 recorded at Strawberry Studios, Stockport, early March 1980 (vocals mixed at Brittania Row Studios).
The recording date for tracks 2-3 is unconfirmed. Record Collector No. 221 (January 1998) is the only source giving this exact date, while most other sources say the session took place in March 1980, as the 2nd "Love Will Tear Us Apart" session and the "Closer" session did.
Except for the Australian 2-track release on Gap Records, the US release, and later UK releases are sometimes said to be issued without track 3 as well. This is not true! Although only "These Days" is mentioned on the b-side label of these releases, it also contains "Love Will Tear Us Apart". There is a USA jukebox promo 7" though, which has only 2 tracks (indeed missing track 3). It comes in a plain white sleeve with a pink sticker announcing the band/song titles, and it has the cat.no. Facus 23. But there's also a 3-track US 7" single release with cat.no. Fac 23 like the UK version.
"Love Will Tear Us Apart" was also released as a 7" (promo) single in Spain (Edigsa 19P0095) in 1981, with a stickered (12") sleeve, and a small paper sheet. The songtitles are translated in Spanish "El Amor Nos Separata" and "Estos Dias (This days)", including the mistake in the english translation. And also as a 7" single in Poland in 1989 (Tonpress S-590), with "She's Lost Control" from the "Unknown Pleasures" album on the b-side, and an unique sleeve (thanks to Eric Carmes, and Jan Erik).
Groove Notations:
7":
~ Don't disillusion me
~ I've only got record shops left
Charted at #42 on Billboard's Club Play Singles in 1980 |
