Dreams Never End
Encyclopedia
"Dreams Never End" is the first track of eight on New Order's
debut album, Movement, which was released on November 13, 1981. The song was later included on the US edition of the 1994 compilation album The Best of New Order
.
After the death of Joy Division
singer Ian Curtis
in 1980, the surviving members formed New Order
with drummer Stephen Morris' girlfriend and future wife, Gillian Gilbert
. The band members disputed over who should fill the role of lead vocalist. All four members were in contention, but since Bernard Sumner's
voice sounded significantly different from Curtis' voice, the other members opted for him to take the role, wanting New Order's sound to be distinct from Joy Division's.
Although Sumner became the lead vocalist, bassist Peter Hook
sings the lead vocals on this song and on the album's seventh track, "Doubts Even Here
.
The song's title is a possible play on the opening line of the Joy Division song "Insight" (from their 1979 album, Unknown Pleasures
) which is "Guess your dreams always end".
The song is featured in the 2010 miniseries Carlos.
