I prefer the energy of Joy Division's version. (Ian was SO incredibly talented.) This version is very good, though. I have, unfortunately, never cared for the beliveability of the song lyrics, though. It makes me think of Too Close to Love You by Alex Clare. Both songs don't make much sense lyrically, and I like lyrics to make sense. The opposite of love is indifference, and indifference tears people apart. Love is a unifier...always. Wars, for example, are not fought, won, and lost over love (other than love of self or money). Anyway, I am a "word nerd," and although the musical quality of this song is excellent, the words are all wrong.
