  This is like Rick Beato but without the insane bloat and using the actual isolated stems! Instant sub

  Full confession: I’m commenting before listening because, honestly, I’m almost afraid to. This is one of those tracks that’s frozen in time for me — bringing me back to the place I first heard it, to who I was, and to how much music mattered then. Do I need that feeling dissected? Yeah, I really do. Let’s do this thing.

  So many have tried to do a breakdown or the opposite, reconstruct this song. <br>Yours is the best.

  I’ve heard this song a gazilion times and can pick up the different layers, but I’ve never understood the arpeggio sequence. Now I know it’s an off beat phenomenon. Thanks for this deep dive.

  Absolutely dumbfounded how anyone can come up with the original track. Just the explanation does my head in. It amazes me peoples brains can get an understanding of this track. Kudos to those that can.

  This iconic tune has been recreated 1000’s of times but somehow the original’s magic has never been topped. My favorite song of all time. Thank you for choosing this!

  My gawd I love this tune! And what a fascinating breakdown! New Order is still in my regular music rotation. Thank you for this, and all your other breakdowns! Been following you on IG, but this platform is much better suited to what you do. ❤
