About This Track

“Shadowplay” is a song by the band Joy Division. It appeared on the 1979 album Unknown Pleasures.

Early recordings of the lyrics on the Warsaw album show the first line of the song as saying “To the centre of the city where all roads meet looking for you”. In later recordings the word looking is replaced with waiting.
