- "She's Lost Control" is a song by British post-punk band Joy Division. It first was introduced in a concert in June 1978. Two separate single recordings have been released: a guitar-dominated version appearing on the band's 1979 debut album Unknown Pleasures, and a heavier and more electronic version first released in 1980 on a 12" single, coupled with "Atmosphere". This version also sports an additional verse, not present in the earlier one and it was recorded in March 1980 at Strawberry Studios, Stockport, making it one of the last Joy Division studio recordings. There are also a number of live versions appearing on the bonus discs of the re-issues of the bands albums. The song centers on Peter Hook's cool, droning, minimalist bassline formed over a methodical and mechanistic drum beat courtesy of Stephen Morris. The beat came together after each drum was recorded completely separately, as Martin Hannett obsessively pursued clean drum sounds with no "bleed through" (when one drum's sound is added to the signal of another drum unintentionally) on songs he considered potential singles. In dramatic contrast, Bernard Sumner's guitar work is sharp and clipped, and bears a striking resemblance to Dave Davies' work on early Kinks singles such as "You Really Got Me" and "All Day and All of the Night". Ian Curtis' lyrics concern a girl having an epileptic seizure (i.e. "losing control"), a condition which Curtis himself suffered from, and Curtis' delivery is nervy and paranoid, reflecting the ominous music. Many indie bands have covered it, as well as Siobhan Fahey and Grace Jones. Live, the song would be played at a faster pace, and much more aggressive, Curtis often shouting the lyrics before the bridge sections. The electronic drum used would often be more abrasive and louder in the mix than it was in the studio recordings. On later live recordings, Ian Curtis would play a keyboard line during the outro, one of only a few songs where Ian himself would play an instrument. The name of the song is referenced in the title of Control, a biopic of Ian Curtis, which includes the incident inspiring the song, and also the recording of the song, showing Morris using an aerosol can sprayed into a microphone as percussion. The film 24 Hour Party People includes a scene dramatizing the recording of the song, and suggests that Morris recorded the drum beat on the roof of the studio, as well as continuing to play the beat long after the other band members recorded their parts and left the studio. This could have been simply for humour, or making reference to Martin Hannett's eccentricity (in a previous scene, he is depicted recording "silence" atop a hill).
- She's Lost Control est une chanson du groupe post-punk britannique Joy Division. Elle a été écrite par Ian Curtis, le chanteur-guitariste du groupe. Cette chanson fait référence à un moment de sa vie, lorsqu'il travaillait dans son bureau des recherches de travaux. Une jeune femme atteinte de crises d'épilepsies passe dans son bureau et, vers la fin de l'entretien, débute une de ses crises. Quelques jours passent et il apprend que lui-même est épileptique (il fit une crise lors d'un de ses concerts). Un soir, alors qu'il était chez lui, reçoit un coup de téléphone et apprend que la jeune femme était morte d'une de ses crises d'épilepsie. Il s'assied, prend son calepin, et écrit la chanson She's Lost Control qui fera des ravages dans les futurs concerts de Joy Division.
- She's Lost Control is een nummer van de Britse new wave-groep Joy Division. De tekst gaat over een vrouw met epilepsie, een ziekte waar zanger Ian Curtis zelf ook aan leed. Het nummer staat op Joy Divisions debuutalbum Unknown Pleasures uit 1979. Een jaar later komt het ook uit op single. Nog later wordt dit nummer ook opgenomen op de compilatiealbums Substance en Heart and Soul. De tweede track van de single is Atmosphere. Dit nummer wordt in 1988 nogmaals op single uitgegeven, dit keer met bijbehorende clip van Anton Corbijn.
